"I had 25 LG solar panels installed by Sunpro this year and they did a fantastic job. The communication was great and the install crew was very professional. It's been awesome watching our electric bill go down!"

"I evaluated 5 bids for my rooftop PV installation: 4 local firms and one regional firm (NRG). I was very glad to have chosen NRG. Their bid was the cheapest by a significant margin. The site survey, design and installation process was quick and smooth, despite the tribulations of the ongoing COVID-19 threat. Production from the system is exceeding specification, and my first monthly electric bill was -$15."

"This spring in Dallas was **** for rain and wind, and I was starting to lose some ties on my roof. I called Jess, because his business has been a long-term supporter of the Dallas Harlequins, and he got me set up with my insurance, and the process was on with this request: "As soon as the weather allows, gitter done" (because for weeks, you couldn't). And that he did. He started work on Friday, June 7, got nearly all of it done in one day, but was cut off by my neighbor at 7PM, because "it's 7PM" and she was adamant. I'm tremendously grateful that Jess came and finished the job Saturday morning, because we all know what the storm-pocalypse was like on Sunday, June 9. I suspect there are still neighborhoods that are recovering. I can't imagine the damage that might have been done to an unfinished roof. So thanks, Jess for getting after this and following through to gitter done! (Plus, with the radiant barrier, my electrical bill is down, and the new tiles are so much more massively durable, I can be confident in another very long run before roofing maintenance.)"

"Exceptional service from my friend's small business! They remodeled my parents' restroom, making it more accessible for them. The attention to detail and care for their needs were impressive. Additionally, they replaced the roof with excellent craftsmanship. Highly satisfied with the results and the thoughtful approach to the project!"

"After finding mold growing on my daughter’s bulletin board and noticing that her clothes smelled musty, we called Tactical Drying Solutions. Jeff replied quickly and was very responsive. He was very thorough in looking for the cause of the humidity/moisture. Once he identified it, he ran a particulate filter and drying fans and made recommendations to the landlord. He was knowledgeable, reliable and thorough and committed to resolving the situation. He was easy to work with, he always did what he said that he was going to do and I felt that he had my daughter’s best interest in mind while navigating a challenging rental situation. I trust and highly recommend Tactical Drying Solutions."

"Work was started on date and time agreed between contractor and us. The work areas were kept clean the entire time the contractors were working on the project. Large pieces of cardboard, plastic and paper were immediately placed in  large plastic bags and loaded in trailer immediately. As stated before no bottles, cans or any food waste was left for us to pick up. The contractors were careful when working inside the house,  We wanted to move our own furniture and did so in advance.  l will say again that all trash generated by the contractor while working inside the house was cleaned up. The entire installation time was 21/2 days.

as per his estimate. The half day was primary to make sure we were satisfied with the installation of the windows, caulking,  replacement of rotten wood and the painting of the frames. We were very satisfied with the entire installation and the professional manner that was displayed by Michael and his crew.

 The new windows make a big difference, The three hot weeks following the installation of the new windows was noted on first much lower utility bill. Also you can move across the entire  back wall of the den where  new large windows were installed and no heat radiation can be felt. The new windows, caulking replacement of rotten wood and painting make a big difference in the overall appearance of the property.

NOTE. I am not a window expert but I will say that l did research and sat down and talked to  three different contractors before starting this project. All of the contractors we talked to were very professional. Price might have something to do with us selecting this contractor. I want to emphasis that before you start a project you should get a written agreement on EVERYTHING. to include how the project will be paid for, how clean up is to be handled, wearing of booties inside the house and anything else you can think of.

My wife is not easy to work for and she asks many questions, even though they were very busy Michael and his crew were always very polite and took time to respond to her questions.

"They first came out and to do an inspection and repair a leak in our roof.  They did a good job with that and installed a water barrier that they guaranteed.  They only charged $385 to do this work.  A few days later they came out and repaired some other damaged shingles.  While they were doing this they even cleared a portion of my gutters free of charge.  For this they just charged us their minimum service fee.  They showed up very quickly both times and made things very easy for us.  We would recommend them to anyone. "

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