"My consultant Ken was extremely professional for the entirety of his visit prior to starting gutter and trim replacements. There was full disclosure of every important detail of the work and so far the installation has gone very smoothly. They will be gladly rehired for any future remodeling work."

"I required the services of a Roofing Organization to remove and replace several damaged Boral Tiles on my home. Part of the services which I required was locating and sourcing the "hard to find" tiles to match my home's roof. Urban Exteriors, (Lyndon) was very responsive, professional with no concern of the size of the project. Within two days the required tiles were located, sourced and installed. I was extremely pleased with Urban Exteriors' professionalism, responsiveness, workmanship! Larry M"

"I do not typically review vendors as I can be a bit critical. However, Chris Oliver (owner of Five Son’s Roofing) deserves all the credit for a job well done. From the moment I met him to the day the job finished), Chris is an old school guy that takes the time to assess your situation and develop an amazing plan. No one could touch the level of intelligence, craftsmanship or patience that Chris exhibits. I would have him do all my house projects if I could. Great around my family, great as a project manager, great under pressure and doesn't stop until the job is done right. Chris and his sons Chris and Mark’s willingness to answer questions make changes sometimes on the fly with no hesitation and always a GREAT ATTITUDE. The professionalism and courtesy they provided was outstanding. In today’s environment regarding getting what you pay for Five Son’s did that and it was refreshing. We would hire them again with no question."

"They helped a lot with getting through insurance hassles and pushing to get the entire roof repair covered. Once everything got approved there were a couple scheduling conflicts on both sides. They did accommodate us on timing to not conflict with a toddlers nap schedule. There were a few small items left unfinished that took some time to get completed, but they did come out and address everything."

"The leak is fixed and that is the major thing. But it took several phone calls from me to get them to respond and reschedule the final pieces of the job. It is true that a wet spring/summer and big storms with hail have limited the company's time they can get on roofs, and increased the numer of jobs they've taken on. So, to some extent, the excuses were warranted as to why it wasn't being finished, etc. And there were phone messages from the company to let me know they wouldn't be coming out on a particular day. That doesn't change the fact that I had to do the chasing to get them to come back and finish the job. Part of our pricing deal included bringing in someone to replace the window trim Ron pulled off to get to the leak. Two months and more than three phone calls later, it was still not done. Finally, after my latest phone call, Ron came out to replace the window trim himself, but Ron is a roofer and not a trim worker. He hammered up a piece of wood, recessed behind the rest of the trim and not matching up with the bottoms of the exposed side trim on the windows. Again, the leak is fixed, the roof is holding and that is the major thing we hired them to do. But our payment agreement included putting the window back with trim to match and that has not been done. And the number of times I had to call to try to get the job done is infuriating. If I had written this reveiw the week after our garage was dry, I'd have given them a better grade. But we'll have to come up with another solution to our trim and pay for it ourselves."

"Gary, was very helpful and pointed me on the right direction after I had discussed my concerns. Had he been able to help me I would have gladly hired him. My system ended up being under warranty and he suggested I contact the manufacture as to not void my warranty."

FAQs for heating cable for roof installation projects in Georgetown, CO

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.
