"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."

"Very knowledgeable and honest about heat damage in our attic and they taught us so much about the importance of how replacing the roof and adding insulation would improve the longevity of all of the attic components. Installation was completed in a day and the clean up was impeccable. Grateful for the quality of products and the amazing warranty that will greatly improve the value of our home!"

"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."

"Maddox Roofing did a great job all around! I was skeptical at first since I didn't see too many reviews and I have a lot of flashing that needs to be correct but after meeting with Brady multiple times and going over the exact details of the work to be performed, I decided to go with him on this large cash expense (non-insurance related reroof). He got the permits in a week or so and then had the materials delivered and the crew came only a couple of days later. They tore everything completely off, and replaced it all. I saw the bare roof and the few replaced sheets of plywood before they re-wrapped the entire roof again with their waterproofing material and re-applied shingles and flashing everywhere. It looks so good, I was so happy when I saw the new roof! The best part of Maddox however is that LESS THAN A WEEK after the new roof was installed, a wind storm tore off a few of the new shingles. I called Maddox to let him know and see if he had some spares I could have to patch, he said "No sir you have a 5 year warranty with my company and we will take care of it". Sure enough they came out and patched it up with matching shingles. Very pleased with the company and the work the men performed on this big house in only 2 days. I see detail and pride in the work and I watched selflessness as the men picked up every scrap of debris from the flower beds and shook the rain spouts to find stubborn nails that could remain behind. I would recommend Maddox Roofing to anyone in the area and I hope they are still in business when I need another roof! Proud photos of my roof are on his FB site."

"Brian was the first one to respond to my request for a bid. I spoke to two different roofers about their bids, and Brian made me feel very comfortable with what his team would do, and how much it would cost. His price was very reasonable, even with having to remove the extra shingles because of the existing double roof (the previous roof had been laid down on top of an existing roof, rather than removing the old roof). His team came on time on the expected date (4/13/2020) and they completed the whole project in one day. All during that day, I would frequently come out to watch the progress, and I liked what I saw. They were all clearly skilled in what they were doing, and Brian would come and stand with me and explain the different steps as they progressed through the day. I waited to write this review, because I wanted to see how it fared under stormy weather. Today is 6/14/202, and we have had a couple good storms since April, and the roof is clearly very sound. I have checked all through the house, and there are no leaks. I have gone up on the roof myself, and all the shingles have been laid neat and tight and perfectly even along the edges - very professionally done. I also very much appreciate the cleanup that Brian's team did around my house afterwards. The old double roof was awful and all the shingles fell apart into small pieces, so it was no easy task to clean up afterwards. But they did an excellent job, and I have not been able to find one piece of shingle or one nail left from when they were here. I highly recommend Brian Price and his team at Steadfast Roofing. They are a truly excellent roofing company. - R Lynch, New Braunfels, TX"

FAQs for heating cable for roof installation projects in Seguin, 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.
