Owner operated. May contact through email. Slate roofing contractors association- installation training.
"Wanted to hire and support local small business. It took almost two months to get owner to come to our home to assess the work even though he is located literally less than 2 miles from our home. When he finally showed up to do an assessment, he refused to wear a mask to enter our home. We are elderly with underlying conditions and he failed to mention he had a no mask policy, even with Covid cases on the rise. He said he would not take the job. This is totally unprofessional and we should have sought out another roofer instead of wasting two months to have a leak repaired. Total lack of concern for his customers and CDC guidelines for Covid 19."

Empire Roofing & More was established to offer the highest quality products, quality service and, quality installation at a fair price. We can meet you roofing and exterior renovation needs. We pride our selves in assuring that you will have a professional and informative experience from the first phone call until the job completed and the site cleaned
"Be warned…Empire replaced my roof in 2020. All went well with the installation and I was provided a “Golden Pledge Warranty” through GAF. Roman Iwanyshyn also assured me Empire would stand behind their workmanship. Recently I discovered water damage on the interior ceiling and walls in the area of a vent pipe in the roof. Standing on the ground it appears the rubber sleeve on the pipe flashing is split. I did not climb the roof to confirm this. I called GAF and was told my warranty doesn’t cover pipe vent pipe flashing (?) and I should call Empire. Oddly GAF made this determination without an inspection. Anyway, I then called Empire and spoke with Roman who said they would be out to inspect the leak in a few days. That was nearly one month ago and I have not heard from Empire since. I called several times, left messages and even tried to E-mail them, still no response. So much for the golden warranty. Apparently Empire is not a company that will readily stand behind their work or product. Something to think about if you’re shopping for a new roof."

Heating cable for roof installations FAQs
A typical heat cable uses about 5 watts per foot, regardless of the outside temperature. So, if your cable is 100 feet long, it uses around 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.
Yes, you can install heat tape in your gutters to help melt ice and keep water flowing smoothly. The system is mounted securely above the gutter brackets so the tape warms the gutter surface and prevents ice buildup. Be sure to have a qualified professional install the heat tape using proper techniques and hardware to ensure optimal performance and protect your gutter system.
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.
Both heated gutters and roof heating cables prevent ice buildup, but your choice depends on your roof design and aesthetic goals. Heated gutters provide a discreet solution that maintains your home’s exterior appeal, while roof heating cables offer powerful, widespread ice melting. Consider the installation requirements and energy needs to determine which system fits your property best.
Yes, roof heating cables prevent ice dams by quickly melting accumulated snow and ice along your roof edge. They create a warm channel that allows water to drain freely, eliminating the conditions that cause ice dams. This active ice-melting system protects your roof structure and minimizes the risk of water damage during severe winter weather.
Roof heating cables last between two and 10 years, depending on environmental exposure and installation quality. They're designed to work effectively for a period influenced by factors like climate severity, cable type, and how well you maintain them. Regular inspections and proactive maintenance can extend their lifespan and ensure continuous roof protection throughout winter.
