"This was a $70,000 metal roofing project with serious safety issues and no meaningful oversight from Neal Roofing.Before posting this,we contacted Neal Roofing directly to try to resolve the issues privately.No one ever called us back.The metal crew cut metal in 9?10 locations around our property with no tarps or containment,leaving nails and metal shards across our driveway,yard,and near the pool.It became unsafe to go outside or use our driveway unless we cleaned it ourselves daily.Over a two-week project,the project manager was on site only three times.We escalated to the PM,management,and the salesperson multiple times and nothing changed.Cleanup was promised for Friday.No one showed up,and Neal Roofing was willing to leave a large,uncontained pile of debris in our driveway all weekend.Actual damage occurred:roofing nails punctured our tire,requiring two new tires,and metal left in the pool caused rust stains.Concerns about damage were ignored. Still no response to this day. "

"BEWARE OF THIS COMPANY! Poor workmanship, no accountability and are not willing to honor their warranty. Complete re-roof lasted for *LESS THAN 5 YEARS!!!* I just purchased a property that J&K Roofing did a complete flat re-roof on September 2019 (as shown in the permit picture). A home inspection on December 2023, just a little bit over 4 years since they did the re-roof on this property, determined that the roof has *ZERO* lifetime and needs to be completely re-done immediately. Keep in mind that the inspection was done on December 2023 but the roof condition has been like that for at least a couple of years in order to reach to these condition. Which means that the work they did maybe, at best, lasted for a good year or two. A COMPLETE ROOF RE-DONE I mind you!!! I contacted J&K Roofing and asked for the owner to call me back after I provided them with all the inspection reports. Took him a week to get back to me, and he will not take any responsibility nor will honor their “transferable warranty” they are “selling” to people. They blamed everyone and everything but their poor workmanship. They blame the manufacturer, the previous owner, the termite, the rain, they even excused the poor condition of the roof as an “act of god”. What a joke. Do yourself a favor and stay away from this company. It is clearly that they only want your money and will tell you and sell you everything just to get it. They do not guarantee their poor job."

We approved it that day, and he did the work the next day. Its one of the best suggestions I have ever gotten from Angies list. Carlton company is very affordable, timely, and Ceces work was perfect along with his staff. "

FAQs for heating cable for roof installation projects in Boynton Beach, FL

A typical heat cable uses 5 watts per foot, regardless of the outside temperature. So, if your cable is 100 feet long, it uses 500 watts per hour. Expect to pay an additional $40 to $200 or more per month on your electricity bill. Be sure to turn manual cables off in the summer when you don't need them.

To install heat tape on your roof, place it along the lower edge in a precise zig-zag pattern to maximize coverage and heat distribution. Professional installers secure the tape with specialized clips that attach firmly to your shingles. This method ensures even heat distribution to effectively melt ice and snow while maintaining your roof's integrity during severe winter conditions.

Choosing between heated gutters and roof heating cables usually comes down to budget, appearance, and performance. Heated gutters cost less to install and blend seamlessly with your home’s exterior, making them a discreet, lower-cost option for preventing ice dams. Roof heating cables deliver more customizable and powerful heat along roof edges to handle heavy snow and ice, but they require more material and labor, increasing your upfront investment. Evaluate your roof design, winter weather demands, and energy budget to select the system that works best for your property.

Roof heating cables prevent ice dams by melting snow and stopping ice buildup at the roof edge. Ice damming occurs when melting snow refreezes on a cold roof—often right above the gutter line—and blocks water from draining, which can force moisture under shingles into your home. Heating cables maintain a warm channel that clears ice dams as soon as they form and protects your roof from water damage and structural issues.

Roof heating cables last between two and ten years before replacement is needed, wearing out faster than your roof itself. Their lifespan depends on climate severity, cable type, and exposure to physical damage. Consistent inspections and preventative maintenance—such as clearing debris, tightening clips, and checking electrical connections—can extend their service life and ensure reliable snow and ice protection each winter.

To safely remove snow from your roof, start with a specially designed roof rake, standing firmly on the ground and pulling snow downhill rather than climbing onto the roof. You can also apply calcium chloride ice melt to break up stubborn ice or gently use a secured rope from a safe vantage point. 

Keep in mind that large snow slabs can weigh hundreds of pounds and pose a serious fall risk. If conditions are hazardous or you lack the right equipment, hire a professional to protect your safety and your roof’s integrity.
