"I had roof damage along the eves from heavy snow last winter. My home is in McCall. I called several local roofers, and they appeared to be too busy to call me back. I used Angi's list for the first time and E&H contacted me. They added my repairs to other jobs they had in McCall. They kept me informed and got the job done. E&H honored their estimate and did an excellent job. They will be my first call for any roofing needs in the future."
"730 South Exteriors is a highly skilled and professional company that really cares about their customers. They were patient during our interview process with several companies and provided detailed information upfront, including their insurance policy. They are experts at communicating with insurance companies and providing them with supporting documentation. The roofing team was bar none and did an excellent job with our two roofs (house and detached garage). The new gutters look awesome too! And they did our two roofs in one day...simply amazing. I would not hesitate to recommend 730 South Exteriors to anyone looking for a quality roofing job at a fair price. You can trust Chris, Robert, and their crew. They are honest and very hard working. Thank you!"

"Cobex did a great job replacing my old roof from the initial call to final cleanup. They were very responsive in getting all of the details right Ahead of time, and were prepared for every question."
"Great presintation! They explain all about roofing, product, if there will be any extra cost wood, look in your attic for damages, 3d pictures of your roof how it will look like after it's been done. Added extra ventilation where needed. Clean up was great. I have Dish, they paid the cost to have Dish come back out. There was no surprises! They delivered product one day, next day they removed old wood and replaced with new and extra ventilation. It's just beautiful! They went beyond did extra safety steps for the customer. My roof looks great, beautiful and I can't stop looking at it. We have the roof for Idaho weather not California. The cost is high but you will have a nice product you will not have to worry about for a very very long time. I would recommend this company they are a top quality roofing company."
"Was told the work would be done in three days and it was except for one Pipe boot. They did not ask for Final payment until the roof had Final inspection and the boot was applied. The cleanup was excellent. Love my new roof. Thank you Cody and the crew."

You can install solar panels on a flat or pitched roof, but keep in mind that they will need to rest at a 30- to 50-degree tilt for optimal sun absorption. It costs more to install solar panels on a flat roof because you will need to install a framing system and likely hire a structural engineer. If your roof has a pitch of more than 40 degrees, it may not be a good candidate for solar panels.
Thatched roofs last for between 30 and 50 years in most cases, which is longer than most asphalt roofs. However, getting that life span from your thatched roof requires more maintenance than you’d need for most other materials, including fireproofing, brushing, cleaning, and rethatching as the material gets worn down. You’ll also need routine inspections to ensure you’re not at risk of leaks.
Yes, an underlayment is required for metal roofs, especially when installed over an indoor residential living space. This underlayment acts as a protective barrier between the metal roofing and the roof deck. Common materials include tar, asphalt felt, or woven synthetic polymers. Depending on local building codes, existing shingles in good condition may also suffice. A quality underlayment is crucial as it provides protection against water intrusion, improves energy efficiency through insulation, helps absorb sound, and ultimately extends the lifespan of your roof.
Due to the complexity and weight of tiles, DIY is not recommended. Professional installation ensures proper alignment and durability.
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.
