"Highly recommended... Inland Roofing came in with a very competitive roof tear-off and replacement bid. I selected them because of the vibe I got from the owner and because they are a small company that has been around for about 80 years in Spokane. They did not disappoint. They delivered a quality roof product, on schedule, and were very conscientious about the workmanship and clean-up."

"Compared to the other 7 roofers I had come out to bid on a new roof, the New Heights representative (Nate) was the only one to go up on my steep roof to document evidence of wind damage. He then worked with my insurance company until they agreed to pay for the entire roof."

"My experience with A and S Roofing was great, for their workmanship and so much more. Like for being polite and friendly, personable and professional, very skilled, knowledgeable, efficient, thorough, punctual, and finished with a good site cleanup. All at a price that can't be beat. I plan to hire them again and would recommend A and S Roofing and Construction."

"Luigi was able to come out the same day I called him. It had been raining the night before. He was very professional and thorough. He investigated the leak from up on the roof and also in the attic. He told me there were some long nails on the roof that were starting to rise but that wasn't really a concern at this time. He took pictures in the attic so he could show me what was going on in the attic. he said the leak was definitely the vent pipe flashing. he called me the next day with a quote. He had to look around on the internet for this flashing because of the size, but he found a good one that matched. I was in no rush and he called for a time to come by and fix the flashing. They arrived early and had the whole thing fixed in 45 minutes! Cleaned up after themselves. That night it rained. No more Leak! Thanks for such an easy stress free job. I will be hiring Stay Dry Solutions when I get ready to re-roof as well! These guys are great and very polite!"

"Absolute Roofing reshingled my roof. I committed to their bid on January 30, 2025 The roofing was completed within 2 days. Their entire crew was very quick, courtious, professional and left no mess behind either day. The job was completed on May 23. They did exactly what they said they would do. Everything done to code. They came in exactly as bid for the final price. Dave, the owner, was very easy to work with. And was accommodating to the HOA review we needed to have approved to move forward. I highly recommend Absolute Roofing. Lee Gillie, Spokane, WA"

"I worked closely with Now Remodeling for several years as a distributor sales representative. I have worked with several remodeling companies throughout my career in sales. Now Remodeling is far superior and separates themselves from the competition. This company, from the top down, does things the right way. From the leadership (Brian and Ammon) to the sales staff and production managers, you won't meet a better group of individuals. I admire their values and the way they do business. They always ensure the customer comes first and is satisfied with all of their projects. They do a really great job at finding high-quality products for a fair price. They also have some of the best installers in today's market. I would highly recommend giving them a call if you have any remodeling services that need attention at your home."

FAQs for heating cable for roof installation projects in Coeur D Alene, ID

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.
