"We had a new roof put on our house in early August, 2021 by Community Roofing. They did an excellent job; there was hardly any waiting, they did it all in a day, the clean-up was great, and the roof looks good. Among the few cost estimates we had considered, Community Roofingâ s was the lowest, which caused us to be somewhat skeptical at first. But after a chat with the company president, we felt comfortable and did hire actually them. As of today, we are glad that Community Roofing replaced our roof and would warmly recommend them."

"I had a shingle roof, fascia, soffits, gutters and drain pipes replaced. The entire job took less than week! The crews showed up early and worked until dark. They were skilled and answered all my questions. The roof and all the metal work are beautiful. I had several estimates before I selected Zeller. The estimate Mario put together was detailed. He spent at least an hour looking at my roof and took about 50 pictures of my roof and attic. When he was done he explained what I needed to do and answered all my questions. At this point I decided if their estimate was competitive I would go with Zeller. Once the job started he kept in contact just making sure that the work was going well. Putting a roof on my house is the most expensive home improvement I have had done. I was a little apprehensive. It was a great experience. I recommend Zeller to anyone thinking about a new roof."

"Came out. Evaluated the work to be done. Quoted a price. Since I was moving shortly, fit me in their schedule. Excellent work. Even sealed along the edge of the roof, which was above and beyond what they had committed to do. Don't hesitate to hire these guys."

Roofing questions, answered by experts

The short answer is, yes, cedar shakes do last longer than asphalt shingles. But the long answer is, it depends on maintenance. Asphalt shingles last about 20 years, while cedar shingles typically last about 30 years with proper maintenance. If they are very well maintained and installed in an area with a mild, drier climate, they can last up to 50 years.

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.

Hail is unlikely to damage a tar and gravel roof because the hailstones will hit the protective gravel rather than your delicate roof membrane. A tar and gravel roof is the most resilient flat roof option, which means it’s the best one for areas that see hail, fallen tree debris, and blown debris from intense winds.

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.

Manufacturers, insurance companies, and municipality regulations are phasing out three-tab shingles. Because of their short lifespan and lack of durability compared to other roofing material types, manufacturers are leaning toward better products, and cities and insurers are starting to require better building materials overall. However, 3-tab shingles are still for sale, and some roofing companies still install them.
