"This is the second time I used Lendor Home Solutions. Couldn't be any happier with their work. I'm 61 years old and so glad that I don't have to clean debris from my gutters. $6400 in my opinion was a fair price for 200 feet of gutter coverage. I would highly recommend this company."

"I was totally satisified with the work done on my roof and gutter. I had a leak on from my roof into my family room. Home Genius Exteriors was called. Project manager, Thomas Barto and crew told me what to expect, the time they would arrive and how long the job would take. They arrived promptly and finished the job as promised. They left the property clean and in order. I am totally satisified with the work done and would not hesitate to call them again for future projects."

"Working with Renew Home Exteriors was easy. Their salesman was knowledgeable about the different window options and was able to walk us through financing the project. When the day of install came the crew was able to replace, seal, and trim the windows including installing a large bay window with a facade to match the character of our house."

"If you need a new roof, call Cover Pro. Raheem and Josh are reliable and caring professionals who provide top-quality service at a fair price. Unlike other companies, Raheem from Cover Pro took the time to inspect my roof in person. He even assisted me with my insurance claim and uncovered some damage that was covered by my policy. They kept me informed throughout the project, and their crew was exceptional. They replaced the roofs on my house and garage in just one day, saving me a lot of money. When the job was completed, they cleaned everything up, and when they left, it was as if they were never there (except, of course, for the awesome new roof). I was so impressed that I plan to hire them again next spring to put siding on my house. I can't say enough good things about these guys. Give them a call; you won't be disappointed."

"The roof job on my home was outstanding!! Santos is a perfectionist! I've never had a job done that went so smoothly and so professional! Santos is knowledgeable in every aspect of roofing, he knows roofs from the inside out. He explained and showed photos of the entire job as it was installed. His crew worked hard to get the job done right the first time. Now, our roof is of the utmost quality work for a reasonable price. Santos is an honest man, my quote never changed! He went above and beyond to make me happy with the work his people performed!! I'm extremely happy and satisfied! I already recommended Santos Martinez Roofing to all my family and friends!! Thank you all for exceeding my expectations!!"

"I worked with Sal Izzo on my roof project after having wind damage during the March storms. Sal was right out to inspect the damage and worked with me on getting my roof tarped and waterproof before additional damage could be done. The crew who came and replaced the roof were fast and experienced in their craft and completed the work in 1 day. When completed you could not tell they were even there other than the new roof that was installed. I would HIGHLY recommend working with Sal and Shell Restoration and plan on having them return to replace windows in my home."

FAQs for heating cable for roof installation projects in Brookfield, OH

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.
