Q: Why do asphalt shingles blister?

• <div><p>Asphalt shingles blister when air gets trapped between building materials, either within the layers of the shingle itself or in adhesives on the undersides of the shingles. As the roof heats up in direct sunlight, the trapped gas expands and creates a bubble in the roof. Eventually, the bubble can pop, leaving an exposed area of decking and underlayment.</p></div>

Q: How long should a tile roof last?

• <div><p>A well-maintained tile roof can last anywhere from 40 to over 100 years, with its exact lifespan depending on the material and level of care. Proper maintenance, which includes keeping the roof clean, free of debris, and performing routine repairs for any cracked tiles, is crucial for longevity. The lifespan varies significantly by tile type:</p><ul><li><p>Clay, terracotta, and slate tiles are highly durable and can last over 100 years.</p></li><li><p>Concrete tiles typically last from 30 to 100 years.</p></li><li><p>Metal tile roofs generally last between 40 and 70 years.</p></li><li><p>Composite tile roofs have a lifespan of 20 to 50 years.</p></li></ul><p>Be aware that maintenance for a tile roof can sometimes be more expensive than for an asphalt roof.</p></div>

Q: What’s the difference between a mansard roof and a gambrel roof?

• <div><p>A gambrel roof and a mansard roof are similar in that they are both hipped roofs, meaning they have double slopes&mdash;one steep and one more gradual above the steep slope. The difference is that a gambrel roof has a double slope on only two sides of the structure, whereas a mansard roof has a double slope on all four sides.</p></div>

Q: Is a roof replacement just shingles?

• <div><p>A roof replacement will usually include removal of your old roof, shingle replacement, and a new roof underlayment, but it may only include adding new shingles if you&rsquo;re <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/problems-with-two-layer-shingles.htm">layering new shingles over the old shingles</a>. If you have signs of roof leaks or your roofer finds water damage to the roof decking underneath your old roof, it can also include replacement of the OSB or plywood decking that lays over your rafters and supports the roofing material above. </p></div>

Q: What is the typical lifespan of a metal roof?

• <div><p>A metal roof can last anywhere from 15 to over 100 years, with an average of 50 years, depending on the material, installation, and environment. The specific metal is a key factor: aluminum roofs may last 20 to 45 years, while steel can last 30 to 60 years. Tin can last for up to 75 years, and more durable options like zinc, stainless steel, and copper can last from 80 to over 100 years. Factors that can shorten a metal roof's lifespan include living in a coastal region with corrosive salt air, improper installation (such as laying over old shingles), and failing to inspect and replace fasteners, which may wear out before the panels.</p></div>

"Travis' roofing team showed up early and got to work. The job went quickly and professionally. The roofers were careful to clean up everything before they left. They really did a good job I had another roofer come and inspect their work and he said everything was done correctly to uphold the shingles factory warranty. Apparently many roofers cut cost by using an inferior top shingle for the ridge causing the shingle's warranty to be void.
I would use Duraplex roofing in the future.
