"I just had Berg install a new roof and gutters on my home. From the beginning, Nick was very friendly, professional, and extremely responsive. He made the whole thing a lot less stressful than it could have been. They even fixed a couple of things that technically weren't part of the roof and gutters. My house looks great! I am so happy with the job they did! I would definitely recommend Berg!"

"Excellent service and follow-up. The roof was completed in one day and the gutters and downspouts two days later. Nick kept us informed throughout the process."

"My new roof was completed on Monday, June 19. Not only was Estate Exteriors the best estimate of choice, but their work was exceptional! My neighbor commented on how precise they were in measuring and replacing a few wood roof panels as needed. They were extremely careful with clean-up. I have a dog, so am happy there were NO nails found in my yard, and all bits of roofing materials were picked up. It was a pleasure working with Eugene. I found him to be very honest and appreciated his advise. I HIGHLY recommend Estate Exteriors Inc. to anyone considering repairing or replacing their roof. Jan M. Naperville"

"I was referred to them from a friend who had a bathroom done. When he met with my friend, he told my friend that they are a one stop shop kind of a company. They do additions, roofing, and so on. I had them come over, they did some work on my place. It went fantastic. I am very, very happy. The owner, Robert, actually came out to the house. He was actually the guy who was doing the work along with his workers which really made me happy. He was not just a guy who came out and sold me the work. He was the first one at my house and he was the last one to leave. I have very little trust for people who come to work on my home. They were very professional, very clean. I thought they were fantastic. The day I contacted them, they came out. They ended up coming right on the clock and when they ended up having to stay later in the day to finish, they went to all my neighbors to tell them they would need to be working a little bit later so there might be some noise. They gave me a great warranty on it. He even had the warranty notarized for me. I have never had anyone do that."

"I?m extremely happy with the new roof installed by Enrique?s Roofing. It looks fantastic. After reaching out to several companies for estimates, Enrique?s stood out, not just for their competitive pricing, but for the confidence and trust they inspired from the very beginning. Sergio, the rep and foreman was great and the crew is extremely hard working, respectful, and clearly took pride in their work. They didn?t rush to just ?get the job done?, they worked efficiently, paid attention to detail, and had a great attitude. I appreciated the positive reviews as they were spot on. I highly recommend Enrique?s Roofing to anyone looking for quality work and a trustworthy team."

Roofing questions, answered by experts

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.

While you technically can add a roof over shakes or shingles, it’s not a good idea. Roofing over existing roofing creates a moisture barrier underneath the new roof and since the trapped material is wood, you can expect a moisture problem. While you could get away with installing a new roof over asphalt or steel, wooden roofs should be removed, new underlayment installed, and the new roof installed over that. Also, the extra weight would add strain to your roof structure.

Architectural shingles typically last between 20 and 30 years, though most homeowners should plan on replacing them every 20 to 25 years. While some manufacturers offer warranties for 30 to 50 years, especially for extreme weather, achieving such a long lifespan is rare. The actual lifespan can be shorter in areas prone to strong winds, hailstorms, or other extreme weather. It is recommended to replace your roof before it reaches the end of its life to reduce the risk of roof failure, leaks, and costly property damage. Scheduling regular roof inspections will help you determine your roof's remaining life and identify the best timeline for replacement.

EPDM roofing is a single-ply roofing material made of rubber, and a professional will install it in a single sheet and seal the seams. Built-up roofing (BUR) consists of multiple layers made from asphalt, adhesives, and roofing felt. A professional will construct the layers of BUR on-site. EPDM is easier to repair and has better resistance to extreme temperatures, while BUR is more fire-resistant and affordable.

DIY is not recommended due to safety and expertise requirements. Professional installation ensures proper alignment and sealing.
