U.S. Floor Heating has helped homeowners across Wisconsin enjoy the benefits of electric snow melting. Retire your shovel and enjoy the comfort of a heated driveway

Madison, WI is home to roughly 231,000 residents, many of whom deal with the same icy driveways, slick walkways, and early-morning shoveling every winter. A MeltMat system means one less chore before you can leave for work.

How a Heated Driveway System Works

A MeltMat heated driveway uses electric heating cable or mat embedded just below the surface of your driveway, walkway, or patio. When our Snow Sense Technology detects snowfall or freezing precipitation, the system automatically activates, warming the surface enough to melt snow and ice as it falls, so you never have to shovel, salt, or wait for a plow. Every layout is custom engineered for the exact dimensions of your Madison property before a single cable is ordered, so you're not paying for more coverage than you actually need.

New Construction vs. Existing Driveways

If you're pouring a new driveway in Madison, the heating cable is laid directly into the base before the concrete, asphalt, or pavers go down. For an existing driveway, our installers cut narrow slots into the surface, lay the cable, and seal it back in, so you don't have to tear out and replace what's already there. Either way, we design a custom layout for your specific driveway dimensions before installation begins.

Full Coverage or Tire Tracks

Not every Madison homeowner needs to heat their entire driveway. Full coverage clears the whole surface, while a tire-track layout heats only the two paths your car's wheels travel, cutting installation cost while still keeping you from getting stuck in the snow. We'll walk you through both options and their pricing when you request a quote.

Running Costs and Maintenance

Because the system only runs when snow or ice is actually detected, most Madison homeowners find the operating cost is a fraction of what they'd spend on plowing services or de-icing salt over a full winter. There are no moving parts buried in your driveway to wear out, and the cable or mat is rated to last as long as the surface it's installed under, so once it's in, there's nothing to maintain beyond your thermostat controller.
