"Overall, I would not recommend them. We decided to go with Schoenherr Roofing based off of the good reviews online, their company profile and workmanship seemed above others and their pricing fell within the middle of the quotes we received from other companies for our project. The good: 1.) Joe was a very, nice, informative and non-pushy salesman/contact to deal with and work towards the development and signing of a contact for our roofing replacement. 2.) Initially, upon signing our contract, we were told that it could be roughly 4 weeks for the project to commence. Upon the initial payment, we were booked for them to begin only 1 week later. 3.) The roof replacement/installation was completed (mostly) in one day and looks great and appears to be done with quality workmanship. The bad: 1.) Upon being told the project was "completed" and requested for payment, the additional bathroom exhaust vent that was to be installed was not done, it was missed. They did come out and complete this in a fairly timely manner, but this was an inconvenience. 2.) 6 packs of extra shingles were ordered to "complete some more work" since they were apparently shorted these in the initial delivery and would complete it along with the bathroom vent missed. Shingles were delivered, but I was then told this was a mistake and that the shingle installation was indeed completed and they would be picked up. The bathroom vent installation was completed on 8/5, the shingles still sit in my driveway today. 3.) The cleanup - This was not very thorough and unacceptable in my opinion. Nails, staples, plastic, shingle pieces, etc. in my driveway, lawn, back deck and all around the property. Two separate other "magnetic sweeps" for nails, staples, etc. were completed in the weeks after, but I am still finding some around my property. Also, my Trex back deck was damaged in the process of cleaning up as there are drag marks gouged into the top boards by the step down and on the adjacent posts from dragging their tarps and equipment. The deck is less than a year old, so I know this damage is from their cleanup. 4.) The scheduling of the final inspection. I had the inspection scheduled for Monday, August 11 between 3-4. I took time off of work to arrive home early in time for the inspection, no one arrived. Thinking they may be running late, I called at 4 to confirm and was told I was scheduled for Wednesday, not Monday, even though I had a formal appointment for Monday. In the end, I was told it was a mix-up, but would need to reschedule for Wednesday. It was indeed completed Wednesday, but again, another inconvenience in this whole process. In the end, the task of replacing my roof was completed and it looks acceptable, so job done I suppose. However, their quality in other areas and the multiple issues/inconveniences I encountered really left me unsatisfied overall with Schoenherr Roofing."

"I thought that Darious and his team of vinyl siding installers were great! They went above and beyond. The communication was excellent. Every day they cleaned up after they were done. Excellent job! The gutter team was fast. Gutters look great. Left a few too many nails around. Overall, excellent work."

We look forward to using them again in the future! Thanks Steve, Aaron, and Nick!"

FAQs for heating cable for roof installation projects in Dryden, MI

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.
