"Sales rep was friendly, trustworthy and professional. He explained everything in great detail and kept us in the loop as to what to expect. No question felt like a stupid question. From time of contact to job done was 10 days, (delayed due to covid.) Crew cleaned up around the house after they were done and left us with only a new roof and a little sign in our yard. Highly recommend. :)"

"We found roofing contractors very difficult to work with, especially given the involvement of insurance. This vendor is the exception. He is excellent to work with and we are very impressed.
We found that this team is very good at explaining different options on our roofing system. They could offer pros and cons of each option and were clear on the pricing of them. We found that their general pricing is very transparent. In contrast to many roofers, the vendor did not require up-front payment. Rather, he asked that we inspect the roof together before issuing payment.
The installation was smooth- the foreman stopped by regularly. Also, the crew only replaced what they knew they could finish that
day to avoid any rain damage. They did not leave shingles lying around and were good at cleaning up the work site.
The only downside to their service was that they were slow in responding and scheduling our work. This was not a problem to us, but could be for other potential customers. Overall, though, they are the superior choice in the roofing business in our area.

"We had gone through 2 other contractors that drug their feet and ended up ghosting us. Within a week or so Chris had all the details worked out through insurance, materials at the house and guys on the roof. They cleaned up EVERYTHING. I have yet to find a roofing nail or any debris. Bottom line Zeeks is a great family own and operated business!"

"Kevin provided excellent service when patching up our roof. We had a few loose, missing, and/or damaged shingles and various metal flashings that needed to be re-sealed as a result of recent intense storms. He reviewed his work afterward and even made some great recommendations regarding other issues. I would certainly hire Kevin and his crew again for future projects."

FAQs for heating cable for roof installation projects in Wills Point, 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.
