"We are extremely happy with our new roof. The crew manager Jeremy was diligent about how things were going and done. He answered any and all questions we had. His crew worked extremely hard in extreme heat. We don’t have any trees near our roof so they were in the sun all day. They never slowed down they kept a steady pace. They were at our home 2 days, they worked cash a team to complete the job and the clean up was done with precision each day. People going by we’re impressed with the professionalism of your company and of an amazing job. One of our neighbors is interested in your company doing his roof. We would highly recommend your company. Our new roof makes our house stand out in the neighborhood. Thank you Jeremy and Crew"

"JR Quality Construction did a wonderful job with deck footing repairs and siding repairs and painting for my home. They had the lower bid and finished on time. My house looks fantastic. I was required to do this by my insurance company, and JR made sure it was done on time and to their specs. I also hired JR for a project in Hardwick repairing an historic granite shed roof. In that case they were also fast and the lowest bid. So impressed with this crew!!"

"First and foremost we choose Marquis Roofing for there excellent customer reviews. We were going to get 3 quotes from different companies, but after meeting Tom we knew we had the right company for the job. The roofing job was quite intricate to say the least, but Tom looked at it and figured out the best way to fix the leak. Knowing how difficult this job could be I asked Tom if he would be there to supervise, he said he would to ensure the job would be done well. That clinched the deal for my husband and I. I knew then Tom had high standards for his company and his customers. No further quotes were needed. Tom & his crew were very professional & hardworking. They finished the job in one day, wouldn't even know they were here. Everything was perfectly done from start to finish. I would highly recommend Marquis Roofing to anyone looking for an excellent company to work with. The price was very reasonable for the amount of work that was needed to complete the job. Tom has an excellent crew as well. They are very knowledgeable, with good workmanship qualities. Thanks to Tom & his crew for a job well done!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

FAQs for heating cable for roof installation projects in Lebanon, NH

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.
