"Mottco was professional and propt. They gave a reasonable estimate to start and when more damage was found, notified me immediately so the estimate could be adjusted. I plan on calling them first when it comes time to replace my roof.

"I love my new gutters! I worked with Kevin on getting gutters installed around my home. Kevin was very prompt and responsive to all my questions regarding gutters and the work to be done. It was very important to me that the gutters and downspouts were barely noticeable and LOA nailed it. The crew made sure that the gutters matched the trim and the downspouts were subtly placed around the home. They were fast and efficient - in and out in two afternoons. There was a slight misunderstanding on the gutter placement on a small section of the roof. Kevin and the crew were able to resolve it quickly with no extra charge. I highly recommend working with them. Kevin and the crew were very professional and the quality of the work was excellent."

"I had used Titan before for some window replacement and had been pleased in the past. So reaching out to them for this project as well. Schedule an inspection of the project with Lamar. He was prompt, comprehensive in his evaluation of the project and promptly provide us with a competitive bid. Replaced the old siding with Hardie Siding and painted to match rest of exterior. Could not be more pleased. The crew was professional, efficient and demonstrated total respect for our home and property. Would use them again in a heart beat."

"Hired these folks on April 27, 2018 to repair several leaks in the old roof of my commercial sized building that has my home and 5 apartments. They showed up on time, and did a thorough job, though they told me we needed to wait until the next rain to verify if everything was okay. When the rain came there were no more leaks, and the price for the job was very affordable. Would definitely hire again."

"With all of my heart I would like to thank Life Roofing for doing everything in their power to rescue me from a disastrous roofing situation. After a massive hail storm, my 22-year old roof suffered major damage, and finally gave way during a strong thunderstorm and rain water began dripping in through the roof, punched a hole through the ceiling, and rain was pouring in to a bucket on my guest room floor in the middle of the night. As a first-time home owner, I called my mom for help, and she put a call in for me to Life Roofing – who had done an exceptional job replacing her own roof that was damaged due to hail this year, and her next door neighbor’s roof as well! Life Roofing called me right away and sent someone out early the next morning to apply sealants and tarps to cover my roof so no more rain could cause further damage to my home while we began the process of placing a claim with my insurance company. I would like to first sincerely thank BENGY BERSIN who came out personally when the estimator came to assess the internal and external damage to my roof and home – his leadership, direction and input helped accurately and honestly capture the damage report and photos that were sent to my insurance company. Second, I would like to thank TABITHA BLACKLEDGE who worked tirelessly for weeks and weeks with me and my insurance company, who dedicated her time in countless emails, phone calls, and texts, to do everything humanly possible to take care of me and get me through this crisis. Her dedication, attention to detail, exceptional knowledge of the business, her experience, professionalism, heart, and persistence are what made my new roof happen. THANK YOU, TABITHA!!! Third, I would like to thank the entire Life Roofing crew who came and did such an outstanding job on my roof, making it beautiful, strong and new again in record time – all in one day! They did a tremendous job and cleaned up everything perfectly. My new roof looks utterly amazing!!! And fourth, I would like to thank Life Roofing’s suppliers and partners for providing me the highest quality materials to restore my home – thank you so much! I am so grateful for Life Roofing – thank you for your hard work, for caring, for every micro-step it took in the process to make this miracle happen for me. I will be singing your name from the rooftops!!!"

"Conrad Barrett is the guy you need to go to whenever you have a roof issue. Unassuming, mild-mannered, respectful. straight-speaking, with years of experience. Fast and correct in his math, he always responded to texts and calls. 7 days a week. Keeps you posted about the progress. The crew that came to do the work was efficient. They cleaned up after themselves. Oh, BTW, M&M did not take a penny until the work was completed."

"We have used Riley & Sons on numerous occasions for small repairs and after hail damage to our roof. Tim was courteous and professional in all aspects of the repairs and our new roof. He also was a great advocate in getting our insurance company to cover repairs to our roof that were not noted by the insurance company appraiser. All work was done on schedule and  always cleaned up properly. I've used other contractors for roofs and repairs in other homes we have owned but none gave us the quality of service before, during and after the job was finished. I have recommended this company to my family and friends who have all thanked me for the referral. Tim also has called me to make sure that everything is still working properly. If you're looking for an honest and reliable company I highly recommend Riley & Sons Roofing and Construction."

"Berger Home Services was very friendly and responsive to our inquiry about gutter installation. Our assigned representative was able to provide a quote without requiring me to be present at the house, which was very convenient. The team quickly scheduled our installation and completed the job in one afternoon. The quality of the installation and product appears to be very good."

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

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.
