"Honest Review of Faithful Roofing & Masonry I want to share my honest experience with Faithful Roofing & Masonry. From the very first conversation to the moment the job was done, Martino and his wife, Victoria, made me feel like I truly mattered — not just another customer or profit. Martino was professional and genuine from the start. He told me their top priority is their clients, making sure they get the best experience possible. He also said it’s not about the money for him — it’s about helping people. Both Martino and Victoria are very spiritual and believe they’re here to do God’s work, and I could really feel that in how they treated me. Things have been tough lately, and they personally reached out to assure me not to worry. They worked with me to make sure my home would be protected before the winter. I had a new roof put on a year ago but needed new gutters because water was seeping into my house. They helped me stay within my budget and still get quality work done — they truly saved my home! Their team was friendly, professional, and always on time. The finished work looks amazing — the pictures speak for themselves. Other companies I spoke with made me feel like just another job, but Faithful Roofing & Masonry treated me with compassion and respect. I highly recommend them for any roofing, siding, masonry, or window/door work. They treat your home like it’s their own, and that kind of care is hard to find these days. Thank you, Martino and Victoria, for making this such a positive and stress-free experience! I’ll definitely be calling you again soon for more work."

"Had a leaky back porch roof that had been done in old fashion (nails) and bad masonry, and resulted in leaking that caused holes drywall to cave in section of porch roof. Called several roofers over months; they were either unable to do the job, charged excessive rates or unresponsive. Second City responded, provided a competitive quote quickly and (after some scheduling issues due to weather) completed the job as planned. They were respectful, answered questions and addressed concerns. No leaks in new roof (I know b/c we haven't fixed drywall yet). Also referred an AC guy who did good work as well - would use again."

"Franks Construction did an amazing job from start to finish. We had multiple projects from steel work on our stairwell/landing to full roof repair & installation (including joice work). Not a small project. From start to finish they were great; communicated all the time, were fast, and made the whole process much easier than dealing with multiple contractors for varying jobs. Highly recommend using them because they are top notch and very fair on price."

"We have once again reached out to Joe Kim at J & K Home Improvements when we had a new project planned. We were completely satisfied when we replaced our siding and roof with Joe. Now Joe and his professional crew have replaced all our windows . There are never surprises or additions from when the job is quoted. Once again we are totally satisfied and delighted with their work!! It has been a stress free experience each and every time."

"Steve was wonderful and easy to work with. They were able to meet our schedule and provide all the answers and support we needed to install our new roof. We are new homeowners and knew this day was going to come. Sadly, it came earlier than expected but SPU made the experience easy and calming. They were able to complete the entire roof in one day!! They left the yard pretty clean and didn't damage any of my property. Since they have installed we have had two storms and so far so good!! Happy with the product even though its not something that you get to use/enjoy like a new car."

"It was kind of an emergency for me as squirrels had eaten a hole in my roof. Also my existing roof, two layers of shingles, needed to be replaced although I wanted to wait until summer 2020. I got an estimate from another roofer about two days prior but their prices were too high. I needed this done ASAP because of the hole and it was November. The weather was about to get too cold to get it done. I called Tom at Buk roofing. He came out that day and gave me an estimate. Great price for what I wanted done. He was pretty booked and said he would try to get it done by Thanksgiving, I called him November 6 2019. Tom is a roofer with a heart because he called me the next day and said he and his crew would be out Saturday 11/10/2019. They arrived a 7:00 am and were done a little after dark. He and his crew got it done and walked all around my property for clean up. These guys were great and I would definitely hire again."

FAQs for heating cable for roof installation projects in Rogers-park, IL

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.
