"We had a roof that needed cap shingle replacement prior to the sale of the home due to degradation of the previous shingles of the wrong type. Weather Pro Exteriors had someone out quickly to provide an estimate and they were able to schedule the repair within a week. The customer service was excellent and they were easy to work with. Pricing was significantly lower than another quote I received and we are happy with the work performed. Very personable and responsive!"

"The whole experience from start to finish was nothing short of amazing. The initial visit from the remodeling consultant was very informative and detailed. He seemed to really care about my house, Unlike most roofing contractors who just try to make a quick sale. The install was a one day install for my 3300 sf roof. They also did an amazing job with there clean up process. I didn’t find a single nail in my yard unlike the last roof I got installed 14 years ago. I would highly suggest using power for your next home remodeling project. I will def be using them again in the future."

"Tyler, my roof inspector was a really nice guy and even told me he can come back and check everything out after a week or two of the project completion. The roofing crew was very fast, efficient they showed up at 7am and left by 4pm. The clean up was awesome and they left my home better than they found it. Manuel called me a couple days before install to ask good questions and discuss how the day will go, he understood I wouldn’t be home. I wasn’t home for the project and the communication was remarkable. Thank you Tyler for helping pick out color of shingles, and thank you Tory for helping schedule and Evan my project manager for confirming my projects and good through communication. Thank you SemperFi so much for your help for locating bad sheets of moldy wood and replacing them!"

"We contacted Tarantino after looking at Angie's list and customer reviews. Surprisingly they were actually putting a new roof on in our neighborhood and could come out and assess the situation.Neil stopped by and was pleasant and professional. He noticed a few shingles were loose, noted that staples were used in the installation of the roof and a few were rusted, indicating possible water damage. He caulked the area, check the valley's and also caulked near the chimney. On his way down the ladder he noticed an area near the front of the house (different area from where the leak was occurring) that was spongy and could cause serious damage if not repaired. We agreed that he would come back and fix this particular area in the next few weeks. In the meantime if the original area leaked agin we were to call. A few days later a nice rain came along and unfortunately the drip took about 40 minutes before intensifying. The next morning I call Neil, he came out same day. Without know where the membrane was damaged he could not say with certainty where the water was getting in when it rained. UGH, my husband and I decided to get a few quotes on replacing the roof, although we could have patched the roof and waited for about 3 years before replacing the whole roof. After receiving the quotes and analyzing them we decided to go with Tarantino, not only was the quote within range, but we felt comfortable with Neil and his prompt and professionalism. My husband and Neil met and he was able to star the job that Friday...3 days after signing the contract! That Friday Neil and his crew were here before 7, set up, and got to work. They were systematic in the removal, and it wasn't long before they were repairing areas of concern and then started putting the roof on that day. Not only did they start the roof, but finished it that day, with a few details to be completed the following morning. At Least 4500 square feet. They cleaned up, ran a magnet on wheels over the cobbles several times to collect any stray staples and nails. The next morning they returned, finished the details, cleaned up, removed the dumpster. Neil came back and inspected they're work and decided to add more flashing in a few areas for extra protection. While on the roof he decided to caulk around the stone on our chimney (we didn't even discuss this) he felt it would be added protection because water could run behind the stone and under the flashing. He filled the gaps with caulk, had his guys come back and do another sweep with the magnet. We were so impressed with Neil's attention to detail and work ethic. We would recommend using Neil and Tarantino roofing to our friends and family!"

"Everything went extremely well. The company rep (Denny) explained our options, patiently answered all of our questions and provided a detailed estimate which was almost $2,000 less than the next lowest quote. The crew arrived on time and was professional. The job took one and a half days to complete because they had to remove the existing roof and install the flat roof. At its conclusion, they removed all debris and left the site perfectly clean. They installed Owens Corning TruDefinition shingles on the pitched roof, removing and replacing aluminum siding and chimney flashing where required, and applied modified bitumen to the flat roof."

"All Star Installations Inc was professional in every way. We had our roof replaced and our chimney cap repaired. They did both jobs with skill and precision. They were thorough, hardworking, and an immense pleasure to work with. They did a tremendous job from start to finish and the clean up was impeccable. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience. The new roof and chimney cap on our home looks amazing! I highly recommend All Star Installations Inc. Ryan and Chris are top notch!!"

FAQs for heating cable for roof installation projects in Genoa City, WI

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.
