"Installed temporary tarp to stop leakage. Initiated insurance claim to replace roof. Insurance wanted to repair instead. Convinced insurance that repair was impractical due to type and extent of damage on roof. Ignacio was always professional and did what he said when he said it would be done. His crew was also very professional, courteous, and diligent in their work. I now have a brand new roof and my yard is probably cleaner than it has been in a long time due to their excellent after job cleanup. We had a minor incident with the AC compressor, but they called out a tech and they covered the repair without question."

"Owner Chance was able to explain the scope of work in clear detail with identification of all materials and installation process to be used. His team of nine showed up on time, worked very hard from start to finish and delivered an outstanding new roof. They cleaned up meticulously. I was able to get every question I had answered in the process. This was a terrific experience from start to finish and I highly recommend this company to everyone. While his bid was not the lowest the quality, level of workmanship and attention to detail made this the wisest choice by far."

"Very thorough roof inspection. Nick is very friendly with an easy manner. He took a lot of pictures of my roof to show good, bad, and ugly. He also encouraged me to ask for help through my insurance company because there is visible hail damage."

"It went great! Jerry diagnosed the problem right away. When the roof was reshingled 10 years ago, there was a portion of the roof where the roofers used too much pressure with the nail gun. This portion started to leak. Jerry recommended we just replace this one portion and his roofers could blend it all together. They came and did the work and now it's fixed! In fact, they showed me the rusty nails they pulled from this portion of the roof. The original company I used is no longer in business. I am so glad that Jerry could repair this without me having to replace the whole roof!"

"I bought Angie's list' s Deal on Roofing Inspection and Maintenance. They came within the allotted three day period, although I would have appreciated a phone call before they came, as they mentioned they would call before coming.
They were very nice, professional, explained a lot, which I appreciated. The reason I cannot give them an A is that my roof leaked again not three days after they finished the maintenance. They did explain that I need a roof replacement most probably within the year; but when I asked them should I replace now they said that it can last a year more, or even two, but I should start preparing the money. Although it was a small leak,  I am not sure now as to whether the leak could have been avoided if the maintenance was 100% done right---maybe, maybe not.  But the problem is I don't know for sure, which is why I cannot give A.
Otherwise I appreciate the idea to have roof maintenance packages, I would encourage other companies to offer them.

"It went very well.  The owner explained in detail what our roof problems are and how to correct them.  He calked an obvious area of
concern and told us what we could do if the leaks persisted.  He then said he would send us quotes for each solution if we decide to go with a more permanent solution.  He was very professional and we could tell that he knew his business.

FAQs for heating cable for roof installation projects in Ravenel, SC

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.
