"Tallahassee Roofing crew came and tore off the old, damaged shingle roof. They repaired the damaged areas and installed a new metal roof. The crew was excellent and the office staff was also great. We would definitely hire this company again."

"The contract session was with Stephan Boyer. He was very through and informative. We knew exactly what we were getting and what to expect. Chris Renda and his crew showed up as promised. They showed up with all materials and immediately started work. The crew took no breaks and barely took time for lunch.. Chris Renda kept us infomed of everything going on.He found that our dormers had not been wrapped or waterproofed so he removed all the siding and began wrapping and waterproofing the dormers for us! The crew took 5 days of hard nonstop work installing our beautiful new patina green metal roof. We are completely satisfied! !

"Alpha One Roofing was recommended for our project by a friend for their expertise, work quality, and fare price. We are so happy we hired them. The result is actually exceeds my expectations. I am particularly impressed by their attention to small details. There are so many small things that I would've never considered as necessary or important functionally or esthetically. They know all those details and they build and make things right. I think this is the best proof of their expertise and work ethic. And they charge a very fare price."

"Everything went very well from start to finish.  Jeff and his assistant arrived on time and spent a day taking up all the old tile and preparing the floor for installation.  Thenext day Jeff brought a subcontractor and his assistant to install the tile.  They were excellent and worked very hard and in an efficient and professional manner.  They were very polite and cleaned up before they left. Jeff came back the next day and put in the quarterround while the asistant grouted the floors.  Everything was moved back into place and was beautiful when they left.  He followed up with me to make sure everything was okay and that I was happy with the work.  I would gladly hire him again to complete any renovation project that I need to have done! I am very pleased!"

"The last was a rental company that we have and we used them for an air conditioning and heating system. It was Bototach Mechanical. It’s been a good program for us. They’re very responsive. I don’t know what the thought process was. My husband said, well let’s try these guys and so we did. We have an older home and it’s proved to be a very good deal. The quality has been pretty good, so I would give them an A for the quality. I will give you one helpful hint though. If the company decides they want to replace an appliance, you need to call them and negotiate with them because you can upgrade, but you need to talk to them in person not just do it over the internet."

"Came out and did inspection of roof and indicated that roof was in good shape but recommended getting it pressure cleaned with a "soft wash"; several of the plumbing boots needed replacement and gave me estimate for the work and arranged to schedule the replacement;  called ahead of time to set time for repairs and came at scheduled time; completed work in a professional manner, cleaned up and left; subsequent inspection by other professional confirmed they had done a good job.

FAQs for heating cable for roof installation projects in Lloyd, FL

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.
