Helpful overview
How Heat Tape Protects Billings Properties
The main job of heat tape is to create help for ice-prone roof edges and safer melt paths. In Billings, that means checking ice-prone edges, safe melt paths, and electrical access and then connecting the fix to water pushed away from entries and driveways.
The scope should explain what will be checked, what will be corrected, and where the water should go after the work is complete. One local example is a long roof valley that sends heavy water to one short gutter run during a Billings thunderstorm.
