"J&Z Roofing did a fabulous job from beginning to end. They were quick to schedule the roof assessment, gave an accurate estimate, and performed the work. The crew was on time, efficient, and hardworking. The roof looks great and the crew did a superb job of cleaning up. I highly recommend them."

"This is to put on record our complete satisfaction with and gratitude to Chris Dixon of Capital Home Improvements for fixing what seemed to be an unfixable leak around the chimney in our roof. This is going to be a long story, but since it has a happy ending, I hope you will humor me by reading it! First, although he was booked up with replacing roofs affected by the latest hailstorm in the area, Chris called us about our problem as soon as he heard from Home Advisor--which was immediately. He came out late that same afternoon. He and his assistant looked at the flashing and the leak stains in the ceiling, found a gap where water seemed to be coming in, and poured a little water in it to verify the problem. Then they simply sealed the flashing at the leak point! Since then weâve had days of sometimes very hard rain, and the leaking has not recurred. The reason we are so pleased with this repair is that ever since we replaced the cedar shake roof around 2001, the chimney has leaked. The original contractor came back two or three times trying to fix it but the leaking continued. We had another contractor in to fix it sometime around 2007, but after several attempts he was also unable to fix the leaks. A hailstorm last year totaled the roof, and we had someone on Angieâs List replace it, telling them about the old leak. They checked the flashing, said it looked good, put new sealant in various places, and assured us that would fix it. It worked until we had another severe rainstorm, when leaking resumed. We asked the roofer to come back and fix it, but he said heâd done everything he could and couldnât help us. Thatâs when we got in touch with Chris, through Home Advisor, with the results Iâve described above. It took Chris and his assistant maybe ten minutes to figure out the problem and fix it! It seems like a near miracle to have this seemingly perpetual problem fixed. With a trusted professional like Chris to advise us in future, we feel confident that we can finally replace the damaged ceiling and check for mold or other incipient problems. You cannot imagine how relievedâeven overjoyed!âwe are to have this seemingly insolvable problem solved!"
"Very professional and excellent work. They were available afterwards coming in contact with a bad general huandy man. Bobby is a hard worker ensuring the customer is satisfied"
"Erie Homes was great. Ty and Chris shared the information about roofs in a clear and precise way. I love the high quality of the roofing materials and the standards they hold their workers to when placing the roof. Mike called me each step of the way, so I was prepared when the roofing supplies showed up. I even got calls after the beautiful roof was done. Amazing job!"

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.
Roof underlayment usually lasts as long as the roofing material that covers it, as it’s not directly exposed to the elements. In most cases, roofing companies will replace the underlayment each time they install a new roof. In some cases, particularly with slate, clay, or certain metal roofs that can last 50 to 100 years, your underlayment may require replacement within that timeframe, especially if you start to notice roof leaks.
You can put a green roof on a regular house with a compatible slope. Green roofs are best suited for flat or gently sloped roofs, as steeply pitched roofs can make the installation and maintenance of the green roof challenging. Flat roofs can support the weight of the soil and plants and ensure effective drainage.
It’s possible to install your chimney cap in some areas, but it’s usually better to hire a professional. Before you attempt a DIY chimney cap installation, check to see if your local building department requires a permit. If it does, you should hire a professional to pull the permit and complete the work for you. Even if you don’t need a permit, getting up on your roof is dangerous, especially if you have an aggressive pitch or slippery roof material, like metal. Hiring a chimney professional guarantees the job is done correctly and keeps you safe from injury.
Sometimes. Professionals may be able to remove the old roof and re-attach it when completed, depending on your blueprints. That can help you save money. But this method is not without its risks. Larger roofs may crack during the transportation process. And if the roof is old or has problems, it may be better to replace it entirely. Keeping the old roof isn’t always possible if you are making significant alterations to the roofline.
