"I purchased an Angie's Deal for a roof inspection.  After a couple of weeks I had to call regarding status and was told he was swamped with calls from the deal so I gave him a break.  After a couple of more weeks I had to call again.  Finally a couple of guys came out late in the afternoon to inspect the roof.  They move a tile back into place and caulked a couple of cracked tiles.

"Called to schedule 5 days ahead. Called again on day of service to indicate I was available.  Said he'd be there in 45 minutes, got there 10 minutes early.
Moved appliance to access duct work.  Thoroughly cleaned ductwork from dryer to venting system.  Then, cleared out venting system that was reachable from the laundry room.  Reattached and sealed dryer duckwork. Finally, cleaned floor behind appliance and returned to original position.
Got up on roof, cleaned venting system from the opposite side, removed two handfuls of lint.
Done in about 30 minutes.

"Gary, was very helpful and pointed me on the right direction after I had discussed my concerns. Had he been able to help me I would have gladly hired him. My system ended up being under warranty and he suggested I contact the manufacture as to not void my warranty."

"Jung has worked for me in Summerlin for 6 years! His skill and expertise are unmatched. Over the years he has repaired or updated most everything in my home: electrical outlets, ceiling fans, light fixtures, bathroom faucets, shower doors, kitchen sink installation, patio doors, indoor & outdoor furniture assembly, privacy lattice installation, retractable sun screen. He was even able to run water from outside so I could have a hose in my garage! Jung is honest and dependable...and always "figures out the best way to do it." I am grateful I found him."

"From the moment I put in a request for an estimate until the work was completed, they were friendly, punctual, professional and helpful. We specifically worked with Colin and are very pleased with all contact and the work that was performed. There was constant communication so we always knew the timeline of work. I cannot say enough good things about our experience. Would definitely hire again (although I don’t believe we would have to for sometime) and would recommend to anyone looking for roof work."

"The patio roof had rotted in several places due to water buildup. The prior owner apparently put up the roof himself and it was not level. They removed corrugated steel and rotten plywood and facia board, and installed new materials along with a larger drip edge and seal to stop water from backing up. It was then painted and quite close to the original color. Lawrence and Brandon did a great job, they were neat, picked up, and there was not a single nail or screw left on the ground. I have since had this contractor back to do minor repairs outside and would definitely recommend them."

"I don't feel disappointed with the pricing. They just really need to make sure that the work that they want to have done is all in the contract. They really need to check when the workers were done and how the work appears. It's going to take several days. I need to check every single day what's going on because there's supposed to be the tightening up but they made it like leaving loose shingles playing around on the roof. I felt like I had to keep after them to keep them at par. They have a really good form end up. The form was not here when they were doing the work. The roof work was done. I felt satisfied with the way things are done."

FAQs for heating cable for roof installation projects in Sloan, NV

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.
