"I had the company remove my dying roof and re-roof. They upgraded the ventilation of my attic, added a skylight and painted trim at my request, all for a reasonable additional charge. The workers were professional and Simon was very attentive and forthright. The entire job was completed in a few days."

"The reroofing project and the new rain gutters went very well and we are pleased with the owner Oscar Ruiz as he oversaw the project. He was professional and personable and his crew were top notch, arriving on time and cleaning up prior to leaving daily. We now have a high quality roof and gutters that we are very please with and since are getting several complements from our surrounding neighbors that we will definitely be referring ODR Roofing and Oscar too!"

"We're thrilled with the work done by Platinum! They replaced our entire roof, and we couldn't be happier. The price was fair, and the quality of their work was an exactly what they mentioned to us when they first gave the estimate. We were so impressed that we've already decided to hire them for our family business's body shop roof. If you need roofing work done, these guys are the ones to call!"

"f all businesses were run like Redwood Roofing, the world would be a better place! They showed up on time and did a beautiful job. They saved my studio from next years storms and will get our next roof on our main house when the occasion arises. Jordan’s crew was delightful and very approachable. Ezekiel, Jose, Pedro and the rest were like watching a play on the roof unfold before your eyes. A well choreographed execution. They know what they are doing and do it with a smile. All in two days The reviews below do all the talking, but we wanted to add our two cents to the pile. You can trust them. Cindy and Vern Scharf"

Roofing questions, answered by experts

The best material to sheath a roof will depend on your budget and if you require the strength of more robust materials. For most homes, the added strength is unnecessary, and oriented strand board, or OSB, makes sense. It’s inexpensive and robust enough for most roof types. Another popular but slightly more expensive option is plywood.

Roofers most often use nails to fasten roofing shingles and other roofing materials. Nails have more holding power than staples and offer better weather resistance and longevity. However, it is possible to use staples instead of nails when installing a roof. Staples are less expensive, but not as high-quality.

Homeowners insurance may cover the cost to tarp a roof if the type of damage falls within your coverage. For example, roof damage caused by a natural disaster may fall within your plan, and the cost of a temporary tarp may be incorporated. In general, however, simply tarping your roof for renovations will often not fall under insurance coverage.

A gable roof with steep pitches covered in asphalt shingles or wood shakes is the most popular roof for Cape Cod homes. Asphalt shingles started gaining popularity in the early 1900s, so wood shake roofs, which were popular in the 1700s when Cape Cod homes were first built, are the traditional option. You can further modernize your Cape Cod home by raising the roof in the front, back, or both to add living space and change up the traditional single-gable roof with doghouse dormers.

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.
