"My experience with Roofing Experts was very positive. The owner took time to answer any questions or concerns I had and explained the process very well. He showed me pictures of houses and samples of roofing colors to choose from for my new roof. The company is professional and timely to meet your needs. I would recommend Roofing Experts to any one looking for a roofing company. Dwight Pruisner"

"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!"

"Friendly, worked hard and straight through. They were quick and tidy on a daily basis. They did our new roof, siding and windows. We no longer can hear the wind and our heating bill has dropped immensely. I have already recommended Aaron to friends and family. The whole crew is professional, personable, honest and very trustworthy. This has been a wonderful experience working with Aaron and I am grateful to have found this professional."

Roofing questions, answered by experts

The placement of snow guards depends on the individual roof, but typically snow guards are placed between 12 and 18 inches from the eaves, though they can be placed as close as six inches and as far as 24 inches from the eaves. A roofing professional can assess the roof and potential snow loads to determine the best placement.

Venting a gas water heater out of the roof is preferable in most cases. Heated exhaust gases naturally rise, so a vertical vent pipe is efficient. If you’re trying to vent through a pipe exiting a wall, the angle of the pipe may be more horizontal than vertical, making the venting system less effective. If you go through a wall, you may need to add a fan to ensure a successful expulsion of the gases outdoors.

No, you do not need gable vents if you have a ridge vent. In fact, gable vents would actually interrupt the process that ridge vents are set to conduct. You would be better off to decide between the two depending on your home’s needs.

As with any roofing material, there are benefits and drawbacks to consider before installing roll roofing. On the plus side, roll roofing is budget-friendly, lightweight, and comparatively easy to install. It is also ideal for low-sloped roofs and lasts around 10 years. The cons of roll roofing, however, include its low durability compared to roofing materials, restricted color choices, and low ROI.

Pros:

  • Low-cost

  • Lightweight

  • Cut to size

  • Easy and quick installation 

  • Designed for low-sloped roofs

  • Waterproofs your roof for an average of 10 years

  • Easy to purchase and transport

Cons:

  • Less durable than asphalt shingles

  • More prone to cracks and tears

  • Short life span

  • Not as many color or style choices

  • Not as aesthetically pleasing as shingles, wood, or clay tiles

  • Not preferred for a higher home resale value

A gambrel roof and a mansard roof are similar in that they are both hipped roofs, meaning they have double slopes—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.
