"Roesler's did a great job. The roof looks great and the gutters are really nice. They took off the old asphalt shingles and had the new roof with code upgrades done in one day. Gutters were done the next week and they did a great job. Eric is really professional and kept me updated the whole time. We are in our rainy season so there were some weather related delays but Eric was on top of it and had the work done before I expected it to be done. If you are looking for someone to do this type of work, Eric is your guy."

"If you’re looking for quality work and honest people, Mocean Roofing is without a doubt the best roofing company in the area. Andre Pretorius, the owner, is both professional and honest — two rare qualities these days. His crew worked efficiently, did an excellent job, and left the job site clean and organized. Andre went above and beyond by recommending an upgrade to my roof ventilation system at no additional cost. My old “turtle back” vents were replaced with a ridge ventilation system, which required extra materials and labor, yet Mocean didn’t charge me a cent more. Thank you, Andre, for your professionalism, integrity, and for making the entire process as smooth and stress-free as possible. I highly recommend Mocean Roofing!"

"I was fortunate in choosing LOA in Houston to represent me when I had my insurance company come out after a hail storm to assess the condition of my roof. I specifically have to thank Andrew S. who went through 3 inspections before my insurance company agreed to replace it. To Andrew’s credit, his persistence and skill over a period of 2 months finally resulted in my insurance company (known for denying claims) agreeing to a full replacement. If you ever have an insurance company come to assess your property after a storm they often have third party companies doing the work of assessing damage and almost always deny your claim. You should always have a roofing company representative there for you during an inspection since they know what to look for and can convince the adjuster that your claim is valid. I was about to spend $16K to replace my 20-year old roof but thanks to Andrew I only had to pay my deductible."

"It was a great experience. With a new home, that needed a lot of work, the teams power sent for both the roofing and windows which were scheduled for different months arrived within the first hour of our schedule appointment. The roof was well done within a day and leaks stopped. The windows are fantastic and the problems that were present with the old ones we fixed. Overall a great service."

"Great. Trinity Roofing really helped me. She went up there with the adjuster to review the damage to the roof and explain to the adjuster that there was damage took pictures. I previously called another roofer and that roofer did not do anything for me the claim was declined Trinity Roofing really helped us If we every need a new roof. We will use Trinity Roofing again. I’m going to refer them to any friends and neighbors and family members. They are rated AAA with me."

"In Feb 2017 we had Great Built Roofing replace a roof due to hail damage. After their initial visit they were able to do the work in one day. It was a good job and good experience. We are now selling the home and the buyers inspector recommended repairing one area where the drip edge had come loose. It was not a major issue but I was uncertain as how the warranty would be dealt with. Happy to say that Great Built honored the warranty in a timely fashion and was able to advise me on other roofing issues unrelated to their work. I think you will find they produce a good product and are very upfront and honest to work with. I highly recommend their service."

"Had my roof replaced by Premier roofing and contracting a
few weeks ago and I could not be any happier. Brandon, who responded to my call
for a free quote was very professional, on time and knowledgeable about the
products and samples he gave me. From the start he was upfront about the
details, the cost and what they would replace and fix and I liked that I did
not have to mention my coupon from Angie?s list before getting an estimate. I
always feel the price goes up if you mention a coupon beforehand but not with
Brandon and Premier.  Their crew showed
up on time, was very professional and work until completely dark the first day.
They finished up early the next day and cleaned the area front to back as
though they were never there. I highly recommend Premier roofing for your next
roof repair or total replacement.

FAQs for heating cable for roof installation projects in New Braunfels, 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.
