"A&W representatives were very professional and provided us with a clear explanation of the damage and the options for repair. A&W worked directly with our home insurance company to verify the full cost of the roof replacement and that it would be fully covered under our insurance policy. The roof was replaced in one day. Their was a minor issue with the quality of the fascia that was replaced on one side of the house but it was resolved satisfactorily in a timely manner. I would not hesitate to recommend A&W to anyone needing roof repair work."

"Lifetime was able to scope out our roof project, provide material options, and a quote faster than the other 4 local companies we considered for our 1,200 sq ft roof replacement were able to simply schedule a visit to / and examine our roof. The project manager (Tom B.) was unbelievably responsive, kept us fully informed through every step of the process, and made sure we had a full understanding of the services we'd be receiving. Besides the exceptionally fast and communicative project management, Lifetime was among the most affordable options we considered. I can't recommend them highly enough, and if you have a chance, ask to work with Tom B!"

"I noticed shingles missing off my roof and several storms came through this spring. I contacted three different roofing companies to give me an estimate on what needed repaired. The first two companies both tried to tell me I needed an entire roof replacement. I contacted ferguson roofing who told me the majority of the roof was still in good shape and only need a few hundred dollars of shingle replacements. After the estimate a date was given for the work and they showed up on time and completed the job. Not only were they honest and reliable but they are huge supporters of first responders and military."

"Brian responded promptly to my request for a quote. (Some of the 4 or 5 contractors that came out never even got back with me.) His pricing was very competitive and his timing was great. The work was completed within 2 weeks. Other contractors were anticipating two months completion. The work took only one day to perform (7 am to 7 pm), clean up was thorough. I went up on the roof and inspected everything. The installation was high quality: shingle placement was flawless and coverage was complete, under nearly inaccessible overhangs, neatly up to side wall flashing, around the new roof vents. Brian was always immediately available on his cell phone or to come to the house for clarification. I am very pleased with the new roof!

"Zykan did a wonderful job replacing my hail damaged roof a few years ago, so when I suspected wind damage on my new house a few days ago I reached out to Will for a quick inspection. He came over the very next day and after a thorough inspection confirmed the roof was in perfect shape (except for some age related issues). However, while inspecting the roof, he discovered a cracked seal around an exhaust pipe and replaced it with a spare one he had in his truck. He also de-clogged my gutter all around the house! In the end, he really surprised me when he said it was all free work as he was on the roof anyways for the inspection! In the past I had the experience of someone charging me $400 to re-attach a loose down spout, a 10 min job! Zykan is definitely different!!"

"First let it be known that I have waited a period of time after completion as I wanted this to be a honest not a plain and acirc;??P***** Offand acirc;?? review. Details: my start date was set for the contractor to be out first thing on 5/28/14. I took the week off from work to be sure that anything that was needed to be done by me could be handled immediately. When the sub-contractor (not verified subs but they kept taking phone calls for what sounded like non-Siding Repair Systems jobs) on my time. They did not arrive and I called a bit frustrated that no one showed and Cory the and acirc;??Bossand acirc;?? said the current job they were on they ran into a mold problem. I told them that they could come out the next day then and was told they would be there. I believe I should have at least received a phone call explaining they could not make it and to ask for a re-schedule. That did not happen on day 2 or day 3. I was asked if they could pay the installer double time and if I could be there on Sunday. I was OK with that and they did not show at the arranged time of 9-10 oand acirc;??clock. So I called Cory yet again (about 5 times now making this same call) and he did not have much to say but he would call them. Finally they showed for the first time walked around the house a bit and left saying they were to get the materials that should have been on their truck before they showed up 3 hours late. When they got back and started removing the old siding they left the house open to the elements and it rained heavily that night. Next day (Monday) they did not show ti Mid-afternoon again and that was the way the whole thing was. They did a couple hours and left. However my wife works a big box hardware store and she Note that the siding they were putting up did not look like the James Hardie siding we were paying for. I challenged them on that and when they looked they realized that they made a mistake. Now I thought to myself if it would not have been for the observation of my wife they would have completely sided the house with the wrong material and charged us for the Hardie siding and if we were normal consumers we would have never known. Makes one wonder if that is a new and acirc;??bait and switch and acirc;?? tactic? Then they had to go get the Hardie Siding and the boss Cory calls now that they were caught with the wrong stuff 50% on the walls and asks if I would be willing to take the lesser siding at a lesser price. I said no as I and acirc;??trusted themand acirc;?? to do the right thing. Finally after 3 more days of being late and 3 strong rain storms the job was done. It does look good BTW canand acirc;??t fault that I guess. To end the story I have to make 2 more calls for them to get the trash completely removed and that was only after I threaten them by having American Express withhold payment. I would not recommend this outfit to anyone. I lost 24 hours of vacation due to them not showing up as promised, the trash left around my house, and the and acirc;??presumedand acirc;?? mistake of the wrong siding. I read all the previous reviews on Angieand acirc;??s List and based on my experience I tend to believe they are forgeries. BEWARE is my only warning!!!!!"

FAQs for heating cable for roof installation projects in Caseyville, IL

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.
