I have always been highly satisfied with Mr. Kimball’s prompt service, honesty and the quality of work he performs. The quality of work performed was outstanding, his team is friendly and easy to work."

"I had 25 LG solar panels installed by Sunpro this year and they did a fantastic job. The communication was great and the install crew was very professional. It's been awesome watching our electric bill go down!"

"Very professional, friendly, and prompt service.  They took time to explain what had caused the damages to the roof and what needed to be done to prevent the damages from re-occurring.  Also, they explained the benefits of a full roof replacement vs just repairing the damaged area.

"This was my 3rd contractor to call...- Initial phone call was answered immeadiately, appointment was set for the following day. He arrived 5 minutes prior to the appointment, he did a complete inspection, he typed a 4 page proposal including a complete diagram of my house in his vehicle, then he went over every detail with me. He offered a 30 year workmanship warranty and a protection plan for 5 years, he comes out once a year for the first five years to inspect and remove any debri from the roof like leaves or limbs. Every other contractor only has a 2 year workmanship warranty. He also gave me a free ridge vent system. He then helped me choose a color based on the exterior colors of my home. We then signed a contract which he explain every paragraph to me as we read it together. I gave him a deposit. We then set an appointment for installation 3 days later. Mr. Jewell and his employees arrived at 7 a.m. on the the 4th of June. My roof was completely installed by 4 p.m. I have 6 large flowers beds in the front yard then 2 wrap around flower beds from the back all the way around the sides up to the front, and none of my shrubs or flowers were affected at all. When they left you could not find any trash or debri from the roof to suggest I even had my roof replaced. Very Very clean, still haven't seen a nail. Friday I contacted Mr. Jewell and paid him the remaining balance. Yesterday, I received a bouqet of flowers and a thankyou card delivered to my door by a local florist from Aqua Roofing... I highly recommend them... I'm happy to be able to write a review on them."

"They showed up (a little late).  Interesting that they didn't bring ladders, but since they didn't bring them when they cleaned the gutters, either, I wasn't surprised.  They had some light clips, but not enough.  Fortunately, I had plenty of my own, so the lights went up and stayed up.  (They hadn't used the kind of clips I had, and I hadn't used them before myself, but the lights stayed up even with the winds we've had.

I'll use them again, cause it certainly beats getting up on the roof myself to put the lights up.  I had set up a timer for the lights at the outlet I told them to use, but they didn't plug into the timer, just into the outlet. No biggie, I fixed it the next day."

"AHS is ok. They cover repairs of most everything under the roof of your house. The companies that contract with them are not always the best. You call AHS with the issue, they send a fax to the repair company and give you the contact info. If they don't contact you within 24 hours, you call them. Sometimes they answer, sometimes they don't. When they arrive (usually three days or so later), they service the item. if it has issues within the 90 days, you call AHS again, they are sent out with no charge. If the serviceman decides the unit is unrepairable, AHS will allow you to choose a replacement from their listing (usually not as good as what you have) they will install and remove your old item, or give you wholesale amount to buy and install your own. Prices vary on what you want covered and what you want the copay to be, plus where you live. For me it is 49.99 per month with a 75.00 time of service order. You can have more than one item serviced at the same time under the same fee. If you have a SEAR product the repair guys are great. Not that wild about the other ones they send out. But it is a big savings compared to calling someone on your own. The cost of service is only the 75.00 copay."

FAQs for heating cable for roof installation projects in Buckner, AR

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.
