"This company is legit when it comes to air and heating repairs. It was them that I was able to hire for my unit's issue, and I was glad that they forwarded me its masterful technician to do it. A very dependable technician who amazingly performs the task and finishes it within an hour. Fast forward a year later and I want to add a heat pump to my home and the same technician came out and quoted me and excellent price, I could not say no and went ahead and let him and his installers install a new heat pump so I can efficiently run AC and Heat in my home. A truly excellent and effective service! Thank you and more power!"

"Bluegrass Construction did an excellent job with our large fence build for a half acre yard. I was impressed with the prompt service of scheduling a bid and starting the work. Justin was out every day working long hours to get the job completed in a week. Very important for our large dogs. He was professional and worked with us when we made changes to the project. He did an excellent job with the installation of three gates-one that is a 10ft double door on a slight slope. I didn’t know how it would turn out, but it is functional and beautiful. Most people think “It’s just a fence”... but it really is an extension of your home. A beautiful fence will make your house look complete. We will definitely use Bluegrass Construction, again, when we do an addition to our deck."

"Agron and his team did am amazing job on our project. From initial engagement to job completion, I could not have been happier. Agron was quick to give me an estimate and very flexible to meet with me to discuss the job with my busy schedule. His team worked very hard to complete the job in 2 days (opposed to 3 days) and was very friendly to my wife and kids while they worked (since they were home during the days the job was done). I'd recommend Agron and his team to anyone looking for work on their roof. A very straight forward without high pressure sales tactics that I found from others."

"It went awesome! They arrived at the scheduled time. Vlad walked me through the process and told me about steps or issue that we would run into before hand. We got the tubes installed and made sure to go over maintenance (cleaning, changing batteries in the nightlights). I'm seriously giggling with delight at my new tubes."

"Nick Richardson was awesome to work with, for that matter, the whole of SolTerra was great. Nick showed me an overview of what solar power is capable of and then tailored the system to my exact needs. All said and done, I am producing power every day , some days its less than I consume, but on overage ( 2 months and counting) I have over produced and end up with a PUD credit. This company is really easy to work with, and enlightened me to the options of free energy. If you are on the fence about solar power, come on over, you'll be surprised at what you've been missing. Lastly my experience seems to be the norm, I'm super happy and wish that I`d done it sooner, looking at others reviews of SolTerra, I now understand why this company is so highly rated!"

"We had a roof leak dripping from a window casement. I contacted Mike through Angie's List on a Sunday morning. Not only was he here within the hour and fixed the leak-he wouldn't accept payment for his services. He was probably here 20 minutes. He discovered a spot where a tree branch had punctured the roofing. That kind of service today is hard to come by, to say the least. I will hire and recommend Mike and Krown Roofing to ALL of my friends. Thank you Mike! A+++++"

FAQs for heating cable for roof installation projects in Marysville, WA

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.
