"All Roofing Eagle did a fantastic job on removing our old shingles and installing a new roof. I have never seen anything like it. In one day a large crew showed up, removed all of the old shingles, checked for plywood damage, and installed a nice new shiny roof. Plus they cleaned up our property and gutters of debris. Very professional and great communication. Amazingly enough they had the lowest bid too. Talk about taking the stress out of a large project. I would strongly recommend them to anyone needing to replace an old roof. These guys are work horses."

"I have had several roofs done by Bayardo roofing. I have found Jose and crew to complete jobs as agreed to at competitive price, excellent work, as well as his communicating unknown additional roof needs that are found during project that are swiftly addressed. I feel I can trust job to get done correctly by Jose and his team."

"We hired PDX Roof Care for moss removal, gutter cleaning, application of moss inhibitor and some minor roof maintenance. Dimitri was extremely thorough on both the roof work and post-work clean up. He was prompt, professional and polite. Plus, the price was better than two competitors that provided estimates for the same work. We highly recommend PDX Roof Care."

"I was very impressed.  Very kind, professional man knowledgeable in our roof and it's current condition, which is good now that he was able to replace rubber gaskets on vents.  We discussed products for minor skylight repairs that we can do, and he  sealed a shingle I'd cracked when I tried to do a vent repair by myself. He also sealed areas (screws/flashing) as a good preventative measure.  I trust the service and will definitely contact them again for roof work.

"Great job, start to finish! We had both a new roof and new gutters installed. The salesperson, Eric, was so easy to talk with and pleasant to work with. The roofers were incredibly hard working and put in 10-12 hour days. They cleaned everything up and left the yard looking neat when they were finished. Our roof looks great and I would not hesitate to hire Giron Roofing again!"

"Excellent experience with our roof replacement from beginning to end. Our sales rep Lee was extremely personable, spent a lot of time ensuring we had details upfront, and was on par with his follow up. The crew that put roof on was on time every day, very interactive and educational at every step, and worked tirelessly despite the heat. Everything was cleaned up and hauled away after completion. I only gave price a B as we did not go with the cheapest, but the high quality is well worth the cost."

"Ken Ewalt came out for the initial bid late January 2006 and the work was completed middle of February 2006. Ken was polite and professional, and explained to me how hot (and cold) air flows through an attic space and under the floors. He made some recommendations and I went with them, and this summer we have not once had to turn on fans upstairs! Two workers came out to do the job. They were polite, professional, and tidy, and did a great job in one day. Later, when we applied for an Energy Trust credit, I called their office and the woman working there knew just what to do with the forms and was very helpful. We received back a $200 credit!"

"I had hired Arlo to perform painting in a house I am selling and I needed a gutter, downspout and flashing repaired. I needed it taken care of ASAP. Arlo told me he would have the gutter taken care of right away. Lloyd came early with the gutter already put together in his truck. He repaired the flashing, installed the new gutter and downspout and I don't think it took 30 minutes. Lloyd was professional and pleasant. I can not say enough great things about this business or Lloyd and Arlo. You cannot go wrong when you hire these gentlemen to take care of any project you need completed."

FAQs for heating cable for roof installation projects in Estacada, OR

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.
