Our Company
Heat cables are electrical cables installed on your roof that generate heat in order to melt ice and snow, creating a pathway for water to safely drain from your roof. Typically, heat cables are installed along the edge of your roof to prevent ice dams—ridges of ice that form along your roof—from building up. Roof heating cable installers like Stratus offer heat cables to help keep your roof looking beautiful even during the harshest Utah winters.
Installing heat cables on your roof can:
When ice dams build up, they can damage your home and even cause internal water damage. Heat cables help you avoid this problem by melting the snow and ice to keep ice dams from forming on the edges of your roof.
Ice and snow can damage your home and roof’s structural integrity—and falling chunks can hurt people walking on your property. Having heat cables gives you peace of mind that your home and family are safe during the snowiest of months.
No need to tear up your roof or get a construction team. With Stratus, we’ll install heat cables to just the target areas you need to protect your home, without hassle or massive construction.
From your first consultation to the final inspection, Stratus ensures your Utah heat cable installation is seamless, efficient, and built to perform through every winter. Our proven process is designed to deliver lasting protection and total confidence:

Before we begin, you’ll receive a detailed estimate outlining exactly what to expect, materials, target areas, installation methods, and a project timeline. With full transparency, there are no surprises, just confidence in your investment.

Yes! If you live somewhere snowy like Utah, having heat cables that prevent ice dams can make a huge difference in the lifespan of your roof and help your property withstand intense weather.
For best results, turn your heat cables on before it starts snowing. That will get the cables warm, so they can melt snow as it lands and create more effective draining.
Heat cables can last a decade when you work with premiere installation companies like Stratus. We use top materials to make sure your home is protected for years to come.
No need to worry about scorching heat coming from your roof cables. The cables only get to around 60º-85º F, which is plenty warm to melt snow but not too hot to be dangerous.
We have over half a century of experience, and we know exactly what to do to make your home look unique and beautiful. We’ll work with you to bring your aesthetic vision into reality.
