"Replacing a roof is a big undertaking, and comes at a big price. We were stressed about having to replace ours, and Mike at Roofmaster really, really put us at ease. It's important to mention that we'd met with other roofers and even contracted with one, but they ghosted us and blew off the project all together. When Mike came to first meet with us, he was friendly and cordial but super-direct and straight with us. He explained everything that would go into our project. He made everything so clear that instead of dread we began to be excited to have our roof replaced. Not only the roof, but they were replacing our (inappropriately small) gutters and replacing the skylights in our kids' rooms. All of this was going on, by the way, while we were having major service performed on our split A/C system, including temporarily relocating the condenser from the roof while Mike's team was working. The day work was to begin, Mike and his assistant got everything staged and ready to go. Mike also met with the A/C team to coordinate their work, which we really appreciated. The next day, a team of 7 guys were here precisely on time and attacked the work. In two days, the entire roof was done and it's brilliant. We've had a couple terrific storms since then and the thing appears to be bullet-proof. Throughout it all, Mike's team was courteous and professional and Mike checked in with us and kept us up to date on the work. I heartily recommend Roofmaster. If you need your roof repaired or replaced, Mike's your guy."

FAQs for heating cable for roof installation projects in Richmond Hill, NY

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.
