"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

Yes, you can walk on torch down roofing. It is durable and tear-resistant enough to handle that kind of low-level wear. Remember that torch down roofing can get uncomfortably hot in certain climates. Dark roofing absorbs heat and can burn bare feet. If you want to use a roof deck for lounging, you may want to install a lighter-colored PVC membrane.

The principal, common, and auxiliary rafters are the most frequently used types of rafters. Principal rafters are large and typically appear toward the edges of the roof. Common rafters are smaller than principal rafters. Some people may use a mix of common and principal rafters. The auxiliary rafter is not common, but it provides extra reinforcement for a principal rafter on a large building.

Wooden roofs require regular maintenance, are prone to rot and mold, and are frequently the target of insect infestations. Natural wood is also excellent at absorbing and storing moisture—not a positive. In climates where the weather shifts dramatically, the wood can also crack, split, or warp.

Once framing is complete, you will need the following materials to roof a house:

  • Wood sheathing

  • Drip edge, a.k.a metal flashing

  • Underlayment for waterproofing

  • Roof covering, like metal or asphalt shingles

Look for certified local roofing contractors with plenty of experience working with cedar. There are also several important roofing questions to ask before choosing a roofer, including whether they are licensed, bonded, and insured. Once you’ve rounded up a few good candidates, compare estimates and hire whoever gives you the best bang for your buck.
