"I was very happy with my experience with Rock Solid Exteriors. First I met Levi when he came out (in the rain) to look at my roof and provided a great estimate. Next I spoke with Tammie in the office to get the process moving forward. My project got scheduled quickly and within a week I was meeting the Brian, Luke and the rest of the team at my home. The roofing team did a great job of protecting my patio and landscape. Each time I came outside to see what work was going on, Brian answered any questions I had. Once they were done they cleaned up and as I walked the yard with them and each time I asked a question or pointed something out they patiently answered all questions. When I asked if they could take "one more pass" with the magnet for nails they said no problem and did another sweep. Finally, today I met Jeff when he and Luke came back to walk the property and answer any additional questions I had. I would recommend Rock Solid Exteriors to anyone in need of work on their home."

"My chimney had rotted boards on it that were in dire need of replacement. I hired MZK because of their knowledge of the situation and their high rating on Angie's list. MZK recommended using PVC trim so that I would never have a rot problem again. MZK took care of everything including getting matching paint, purchasing and installing the boards and painting."

The gutter team was fast. Gutters look great. Left a few too many nails around. Overall, excellent work."

Their prices are competitive with the market. The crew was amazing, showing up on time and fully cleaning up when the project was complete.

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.
