Most people stress over home improvements. We make it easy and affordable. The exterior home experts at Couto Construction have been beautifying homes across Southeastern Massachusetts, Cape Cod and Rhode Island for more than 30 years. We've helped thousands of homeowners, and we're here for you.

"Unfortunately my experience with Couto Construction has proven to be the costliest mistake I’ve ever made, in terms of money and stress. I would never recommend them for any large job of any complexity or requiring good craftsmanship. After interviewing three contractors for extensive exterior work on my house, Couto Construction, although coming in with the highest estimate, was selected based on the company’s overall great reviews on Angi’s List and high Better Business Bureau rating. The company's representatives also seemed to understand the project goal. The co-owner expressed enthusiasm about working on what he called a “legacy project” and assured me that the company had workmen with the necessary skills to complete the job well. The contract was signed July 18, 2020. Work began January 22, 2021 and stopped March 10, 2021, totaling approximately 29 working days. Work on the front of the house was not completed pending agreement on an acceptable work plan and estimate for repair of the front porch, which was not able to be assessed until the aluminum siding had been stripped. This work was dealt with in a separate contract. The crews were very hard working but the emphasis was on speed over quality, resulting in careless mistakes and mediocre workmanship. On April 10, 2021 an email was sent to the owners of Couto Construction expressing concern with the quality of the work done to date, much of which became fully apparent after the snow had melted from the roof and the temperatures began to get warmer. These issues included chipped and lifting roof shingles; peaks and valleys along the newly installed ridge vent; bent, dented and dog-earred drip edges; and warped, lifting siding shingles. While the company has addressed some of these issues, its response has been slow, incomplete and of mixed success. Between April 21 and September 7, 2021, Couto workmen spent approximately 12-15 days on site and as many days in meetings or text message exchanges in response to my inquiries about when these issues would be fully addressed. Typically a workman would show up for 1-2 days, then weeks would go by with no word from the contractor until I texted or phoned, then the pattern would repeat itself. Rectifying the issues with my contract has clearly been secondary to quickly turning over smaller, more lucrative projects. To date, about ¾ of the roof issues have been addressed with mixed results; and no viable solution to the shingle siding problems were found. Though the siding was not installed according to the instructions on the product packaging, the contractor is stating that the shingles were faulty (which is being denied by the manufacturer) and were already warped out coming out of the box. If that was the case, a professional installer should not have put a warped product up in the first place. In February 2022 two options were presented to Couto to resolve the siding stalemate. Option 1 proved unfeasible and the company has been silent on option 2 since March. It is outrageous that I should still be dealing with this 1 ½ years after work began and almost 2 years after the contract was originally signed. I cannot express my level of frustration with this company."

A little about Skyway Exteriors I have been heavily involved in the construction trades since I was sixteen years old. During that time I have installed thousands of replacement roofing projects. I owe much of my success to all of the quality tradesmen, coaches, teachers and family members that have helped me over the years. I work hand in hand with my crews. When it comes to protecting your home from Southeastern Massachusetts, you can trust we have the expertise. Our strategically sized operation enables us to give you the personal relationship you deserve and the quality workmanship that you require. Skyway Exteriors, specializes in residential roofing. From our initial visit we will always give you an honest opinion at what condition your roof is in. We can identify whether you are a candidate for replacement roofing or a roofing repair service. We will always recommend a solution that fits your needs and budget. In our experience we typically see roofs failing because of inferior products, poor workmanship and ventilation issues.

"I had a FANTASTIC experience with LCT! It started with a prompt response from them, setting up an appointment the next day after a tree fell on my house. James came down and explained everything thoroughly and gave me some options. After talking to a few other vendors, I knew I wanted to go with LCT. Their pricing was better than the other quotes and James was great to work with. Before the crew started any work I met the owner, Luis, and knew I had chosen the right company. He was just as great as James, very thorough and let me know what would be happening. In addition to needing the roof replaced we also had some damage to rafters and decking to replace. After the job was complete, Luis did a thorough inspection of the work and made sure I was happy with everything. The crew did an amazing job and I couldn't be happier with the work. The office staff was also great to work with! I got to meet them when I went down to pay the invoice. A 5 star experience from start to finish. Thank you LCT!"

"The team did a thorough and honest inspection of my sister-in-law’s roof. Though a few small concerns were raised, they didn’t try to sell her a roof that she did not need. Trust and credibility are sorely needed when it comes to roofers, and the team at Mighty Dog South Shore has both! Highly recommend!"

"One of the worst companies I have EVER dealt with in my life. Nothing but runaround, lies, and lack of accountability. They will tell you something over the phone, then when you follow-up, they will magically lose all records of prior conversations. I was told replacement windows would be ordered in June 2024 - never ordered. In January, ordered correctly with 4-6 week expedited delivery time quoted. Now in Feb, was told the windows would not be ready until end of March (total of nearly 11 weeks since order). Magically, they have no record of quoting me 4-6 weeks, though I have email records saying otherwise. Just a miserable company to do business with, would never recommend to any homeowner."

Heating cable for roof installations FAQs

A typical heat cable uses about 5 watts per foot, regardless of the outside temperature. So, if your cable is 100 feet long, it uses around 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.

Yes, you can install heat tape in your gutters to help melt ice and keep water flowing smoothly. The system is mounted securely above the gutter brackets so the tape warms the gutter surface and prevents ice buildup. Be sure to have a qualified professional install the heat tape using proper techniques and hardware to ensure optimal performance and protect your gutter system.

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.

Both heated gutters and roof heating cables prevent ice buildup, but your choice depends on your roof design and aesthetic goals. Heated gutters provide a discreet solution that maintains your home’s exterior appeal, while roof heating cables offer powerful, widespread ice melting. Consider the installation requirements and energy needs to determine which system fits your property best.

Yes, roof heating cables prevent ice dams by quickly melting accumulated snow and ice along your roof edge. They create a warm channel that allows water to drain freely, eliminating the conditions that cause ice dams. This active ice-melting system protects your roof structure and minimizes the risk of water damage during severe winter weather.

Roof heating cables last between two and 10 years, depending on environmental exposure and installation quality. They're designed to work effectively for a period influenced by factors like climate severity, cable type, and how well you maintain them. Regular inspections and proactive maintenance can extend their lifespan and ensure continuous roof protection throughout winter.
