"We have a historic home and there was additional care required to replace siding beneath the roofing material at the eaves. The team at Jordan roof completed the entire job in only 4 days, they fixed up our dormer which had shingles that had deteriorated, and repainted some of the shingles. Our home looks better than ever! Great responsiveness, fair pricing, and high quality work."

"I can't recommend Reign Roofing enough! They completed our steep roof project in just one week, and the quality of work is excellent. After receiving quotes from 10 other roofers, Reign Roofing stood out for its professionalism, reasonable pricing, and transparency. Our insurance (USAA) was difficult, offering only half of the replacement cost, but Reign Roofing worked with them to submit a detailed estimate and get our roof fully covered. We’re grateful for their hard work and help navigating the insurance process. Thank you, Reign Roofing!"

"I had an awesome experience with Green Ladder Roofing. They repaired a few leaks on my roof and later did a full replacement when it was time. The crew showed up right on schedule, worked efficiently, and cleaned everything up afterward. You wouldn’t even know they were there except for how great the roof looks now. The customer service was great, we had an amazing experience with the team."

"I had been dreading getting my roof replaced because I assumed it would be a major headache, but Roofing Angels made the whole process so smooth and stress-free! Chuck was incredibly helpful from the start—he walked us through different roofing options, explained the costs, and even helped us navigate the insurance claim process. The crew was professional, polite, and hard-working. They arrived on time each day, worked efficiently, and kept the work area spotless. Even my neighbors commented on how respectful and clean they were! The finished product? Absolutely perfect. The new roof not only looks great but also gives us peace of mind knowing it was done right. I highly recommend Roofing Angels if you want a seamless experience and high-quality results!"

"I hired Specialist Roofing and Repair to install a new roof. I was a little worried because my roof has a very steep pitch. I could imagine how the guys would work on that roof, but in a few days they had the old roof off and a brand new one installed. I was very impressed with the work that they did. I recommend them to anyone that needs any roof work done. Thanks to all the guys at Specialist Roofing and Repair!"

"I had a very difficult project. My roof has a very steep pitch, multiple planes and is difficult to access. August roofing was extremely professional and met the challenge. My new roof looks great and the company was very responsive to my needs. Every morning the crew was on time and I really appreciate the managers on the project as well. I intend to recommend this company to my friends for future projects."

Roofing questions, answered by experts

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.

The roof pitch on a Cape Cod house is normally 8/12 or 10/12, meaning the roof rises 8 to 10 inches for every 12 inches of horizontal run. This is steeper than the now-standard 6/12 pitch, as Cape Cod homes were originally popular in northern states, where the steeper pitch helped snowfall slide readily off the roof.

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.

Depending on the type of damage your roof shingles have, you may be able to simply repair them without having to replace them. However, if there are more than a few to repair, replacement is likely the easier option. You may only need to replace a few of them. Repair shingles by applying roofing sealant directly under the shingle's damage and then directly over it. 

Fall is widely considered the best time of year to replace a roof. The moderate temperatures are ideal for roofing crews to work and for new shingles to seal properly. Additionally, autumn weather is often drier, reducing the risk of weather-related delays compared to the rainier spring season.

While spring is also a viable option, the higher chance of rainfall can slow down the project. The main drawback to a fall installation is that it's the peak season for roofers, which can lead to higher prices and scheduling challenges.

To potentially save money, you could consider scheduling your roof replacement during the summer or winter off-seasons. However, both seasons have significant disadvantages. Extreme summer heat can make shingles too soft to handle, while winter's cold, snow, and ice can create dangerous working conditions and prevent shingles from sealing correctly, as they typically require temperatures above 40-45°F.
