"When I was advised by my landscaper company that I had loose shingles on my roof, through a referral from a friend, I called Clancy Malone from Atlas Roof & Exteriors. Clancy reviewed my roof and advised me that I have some severe hail and wind damage. Upon notification to my Insurance Company, I was advised that my claim is justified. From that point Clancy advised me that his team could install a Lifetime Dimensional Shingles, that has the longest warranty in its class. The work was completed within 3 days and I cannot be happier with the courtesy and professionalism that Clancy and his crew afforded me. I would use or recommend this fine company to anyone needing professional roofing replacement ! Thank you again, Clancy Malone and The Atlas Roofing & Exteriors Company. Best, Larry R. Cutler"

"Our roof replacement went very well. Shane Matheny was great to work with. He was always on time for our appointments. The price was fair and lower than the other 2 bids I obtained. After I signed the proposal, the work was scheduled and completed within a few weeks. They completed my roof in one day and did a great job cleaning up the job site. I would certainly use them again and recommend them to others."

"We have Highmark Renovations for our roof replacement, and we are pleased with the result, my new roof looks very well, and it is exactly how we wanted. We found Highmark Renovations Roofing very easy to work with, especially with the project manager and the owner, Joe, he is excellence in selecting the materials and getting the original estimate to final installation and I loved his complete custom designed, details of workmanship for my projects. The total cost was reasonable, especially compared to other quotes that I have, and the work team was careful in everything they did, they were proud of the quality of their work, they worked until the job was complete and passed the permit inspections. I highly recommend Highmark Renovations Roofing for your roofing projects."

"Great! We used Marcus to fix a leaking roof vent maybe 7 years ago and since then he’s built a detached garage for our home, two large decks for rentals, and metal roofing for my shop. He is the most honest and trustworthy person in the business. If it’s something he doesn’t do he is also super helpful in referring you to someone he knows. He has turned into my go to guy for all construction needs. He always calls you back also!"

"The electricians arrived on time and went straight to their work completing each of the tasks with care and skill. There was no need to do any repair to drywall with the installation of the new outlets. They were very neat and respectful of our home. All of these jobs were completed in one day. We were extremely pleased with the quality of the work and feel quite certain that we can call upon the electricians at Bell Electric to do an excellent job for a fair price. We needed some follow-up electrical work when remodeling our kitchen. We needed a dedicated line for the above-the-stove microwave. I called Bell explaining we needed someone asap and someone was here the next morning. He did an excellent job of not only installing the wire up through the drop ceiling in our finished basement but also installing a wall socket that was flush to the back of our cabinet which did not take up valuable cupboard space. I knew that if I called Bell, we'd have the job completed professional and at a fair price. I would use them again in a heart beat."

FAQs for heating cable for roof installation projects in Lewis Center, OH

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.
