"Both the owner of Guardian Roofing Systems, LLC, Angelo Ristich and his Lead Repairman Hector were professional and very knowledgeable about the task at hand and what needed to be done. They answered my questions and made sure I had full understanding of the whys of the roof replacement. I was quoted a fair price. The job was completed in a timely manner and true to their word, when the next heavy rain high windstorm happened the new roof held up beautifully. The leaks my house was plagued with aren't a problem anymore. For quality service at a fair price I definitely recommend them."

"While removing the old roof, the aluminum coverings on our mansard roof dormers were damaged. The roofing crew attempted to repair the damage but the result was not satisfactory. As compensation they deducted a small amount from the total bill."

"The job went very well; Danny was honest in describing the work his company would perform, the exact cost - no hidden fees - and he was a consummate professional through the entire process. The job was performed in an expeditious, yet meticulous manner; I have experienced leaking problems each year over the past 4 years with my enclosed deck installed by another company. However, given the excessive amount of snow, which accumulated on my roof over this past winter, there has been no water/ice leakage; and after torrential rain storms, I have not experienced any leakage as well. The type of roof installed is more durable and protective than the previous roof installed on my entire house. I highly recommend MDD Exteriors for all of your roofing needs!"

"Aurora Roofing Company completely replaced my roof and gutters. The entire roof was done in one day and the gutters were done in a half day during the same week. Everything was handled very quickly and professionally. There was exceptional communication between myself and Tom who was the project manager. I highly recommend them."

Roofing FAQs, answered by experts

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.

You’re going to need a permit for nearly every roof-raising project. This is a very important step, as the work you’re doing has serious safety considerations. Professionals are the ones to handle this type of work—including sourcing the permits—as they have the expertise required to perform the work safely. Insurance and warranty are usually voided if you do this work without a permit, and you may even be required to halt construction and tear it down as a penalty for working without a building permit.

No, there’s no specific building code that requires a roof overhang. However, installing your roof with the standard 2-inch overhang is good practice, as it helps direct runoff away from your fascia boards and roof decking and into your gutters. Some overhang is especially important in areas that see heavy rainfall and snowfall, as the risk of water getting under the roofing material and causing water damage is much higher.

The cost to replace a roof typically ranges from $8,700 to $22,000, with a national average of around $9,200. The total cost depends on the size of your roof and whether you need a full replacement or can simply place new shingles over the old ones. A full replacement, which is necessary if the roof is several decades old or has multiple layers, is more expensive. This process involves tearing off the old roofing materials, inspecting and repairing the underlying structure, and then installing the new roof.

Wooden roofs require regular maintenance, are prone to rot and mold, and are frequently the target of insect infestations. Natural wood is also excellent at absorbing and storing moisture—not a positive. In climates where the weather shifts dramatically, the wood can also crack, split, or warp.
