"This company is the worst contractor I have ever heard of. I hired them to add a $90,000 addition to my existing home. Every thing they did turned bad quickly. They poured a 48x25 concrete bad that has 3" waves throughout. They after talking to him and telling him it needed fixed he decided it would be ok to build the walls and structure of the addition on top of the terrible concrete. He changed my blue prints and made the addition roof structurally unstable. I hired an engineering company to verify my concerns. They did and said it all had to be town down. The contractor is now refusing to make the repairs and I am in the middle of legal action against him. DO NOT HIRE! Going to cost $225,000 to repair damages."

"The first crew walk off the job within the first 45 minutes. The owner has an issue with being truthful and with ethics. If you consider hiring this company ask lots of questions and the get it in writing.Be specific like: do the people doing the work actually work for you, and have they ever done work for you before, do you guarantee your work. He will probably still not do what you agreed on. There are problems with our roof that we will probably have to take legal action to get them fixed. When I brought it up with the owner he said that it was normal (see pictures), when I had several other roofing contractors take a look at the roof they said that it was not normal and will need to be redone. BEWARE BEWARE BEWARE . They also destroyed three of the gutters and finished the job in the dark so they would not have to come back the next day. GO SOMEWHERE ELSE. The ridge vent looks horrible. They did do a fairly nice job on the chimney. We bought a magnet and picked up several hundred nails in the yard."

Heating cable for roof installations FAQs

A typical heat cable uses about 5 watts per foot, regardless of the outside temperature. So, if your cable is 100 feet long, it uses around 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.

Yes, you can install heat tape in your gutters to help melt ice and keep water flowing smoothly. The system is mounted securely above the gutter brackets so the tape warms the gutter surface and prevents ice buildup. Be sure to have a qualified professional install the heat tape using proper techniques and hardware to ensure optimal performance and protect your gutter system.

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.

Both heated gutters and roof heating cables prevent ice buildup, but your choice depends on your roof design and aesthetic goals. Heated gutters provide a discreet solution that maintains your home’s exterior appeal, while roof heating cables offer powerful, widespread ice melting. Consider the installation requirements and energy needs to determine which system fits your property best.

Yes, roof heating cables prevent ice dams by quickly melting accumulated snow and ice along your roof edge. They create a warm channel that allows water to drain freely, eliminating the conditions that cause ice dams. This active ice-melting system protects your roof structure and minimizes the risk of water damage during severe winter weather.

Roof heating cables last between two and 10 years, depending on environmental exposure and installation quality. They're designed to work effectively for a period influenced by factors like climate severity, cable type, and how well you maintain them. Regular inspections and proactive maintenance can extend their lifespan and ensure continuous roof protection throughout winter.
