"Called Harris Roofing after the wind storm and was blown away with how quick they responded. Within 24 hours I had a repair done, a quote for a new roof and a contract sent to me. Fast forward 2 weeks later and he tore off and replaced my roof and only took about 1.5 days. Always kept me updated along the way and job site was always clean. Price was reasonable and didn't feel like I was being taken advantage of. Would recommend this roofing company to anyone for any roofing needs!"

"Gene and the guys did a great job on re-roofing and adding insulation to the attic. The guys worked hard every day, finished in about a week (excluding weekends) and were friendly, respectful and responsive to any questions and requests that I had. I would recommend them to anyone who asks. Also, it was great being able to always get through to the office. They always gave me a heads-up when things were going to happen, or if Gene was coming by. So, not only was the work done well, the support staff did great too!"

"I had half a dozen roofers give me quotes. Gene was the only one who offered the correct solution for my problem. Definitve gave me the best plan to re-roof my house and deal with the issues I was having. They gave me two options, a cold roof or a hot roof. I paid extra for the cold roof and the insulation and his bid was still under all the other quotes I received. They got the job done quickly. I'm very happy with the work. I would definitely recommend him."

"The representative that approached me was completely professional. And he was very informable. He was a young guy, but he reminded me of the old time workers. The word instead, bond In the guy set down the roof was completely professional. They worked hard and they'd done a great-great job. I appreciate what they did"

Roofing questions, answered by experts

If your home doesn't have gutters, you can still hang Christmas lights on the roof using specialized clips. Use roof clips designed to attach to shingles or fascia. For tile roofs or the edges of the rooftop, consider using parrot clips. Adhesive light-hanging clips are also a great option. It's important to avoid using nails or staples, as they can damage your roofing material. For unique or complex installations, it's best to consult a professional Christmas light installer to find the safest and most effective solution for your home.

Yes, roof ridge caps are a necessary part of your roof system. Your roof ridge cap is at the peak of your roof, where two slopes of your roof meet. Roof ridge caps seal the seam and help protect your roof from water and debris, and because they’re pre-bent and thicker, they’re more suited to the job than regular roof shingles, which can break when bent.

The most common roof pitch is 4:12, which means a rise of 4 inches for every 12 inches of horizontal run. However, roof pitch varies widely based on roof design, climate, and even the roofing materials you plan to install. Your building type also plays a role, as flat roofs are common on commercial buildings and some modern homes.

Verify that your roof is licensed and insured by visiting your state's contractor's licensing association. Most states have a database to double-check your contractor's name and address against the information provided. The contractor should also display both their license and insurance on their website with links to the related agencies.

Furring strips (also called wood stripping) are not always necessary for a metal roof installation, but they are highly recommended and may be required by local building codes or the roofing manufacturer's specifications. There are several key reasons to use them:

  • Energy Efficiency: Furring strips, made of wood or metal, create an air gap between the metal panels and the roof deck. This acts as a thermal break, reducing heat transfer into your home and improving overall energy efficiency.

  • Moisture and Condensation Control: The air gap allows for better airflow, which helps prevent moisture buildup and condensation under the metal panels.

  • Structural Support: They provide a solid, even frame to which you can attach the metal roofing panels.

It is especially important to use furring strips when installing a metal roof over existing shingles. Without them, the roof surface can be uneven, and you will experience greater solar heat gain.
