We’re Jim and Mike Allen, brothers and co-owners of TermiGuard Services and Fenwick Building & Renovation. With our 50+ years of combined experience, we can promise you that you're in good hands. One of the biggest challenges we face as homeowners is finding the right contractor to deal with issues which arise – one who has the requisite knowledge, skills, and experience. A contractor who will answer your calls and then do what they say they’d do, when they said they would. A contractor you can trust, and who will actually give you a no-nonsense warranty on his/her work. We’ve built TermiGuard Services & Fenwick to be effectively different from the rest – embracing and living the principles and values we grew up with – treating people the way we’d want to be treated. And frankly, we’re tired of how so many other companies treat customer service as unimportant and how they take customers for granted. As consumers ourselves, we’ve felt the pain from the evident lack of caring and regard for the concept of old-fashioned, customer-centered service. To that end, we offer you a family of home services including, real estate repairs, pest, termite & wildlife control, water intrusion inspections, mold treatment, waterproofing, structural & foundation repairs, property & water damage restoration, and crawl space encapsulation services – to name just a few… Bottom line – we’re first aid for your home or building, and we’re dedicated to providing you healthier living…

"Very dissatisfied with my service and lack of professionalism. Will not be recommending or reusing this company again."

FAQs for heating cable for roof installation projects in Cape May, NJ

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.
