"We are customer for LIFE! My husband and I had a bad experience with a contractor, so naturally we are very cautious on who we hire. Rogers Roofing has restored our faith in the home remodeling industry. Their inspector, Sean, was extremely detailed and organized. He even went in our attic to take videos and photos of anything and everything that was going on! Zero pressure during the appointment, just complete honesty. He had a specific plan for our new roofing system, and our home has never been more protected. Thank you Rogers Roofing!"

Roofing questions, answered by experts

A cool roof is any heat-reflecting roof that rejects solar energy more efficiently than traditional roofing (staying about 50 degrees cooler). Thanks to this ability, a cool roof will make your home cooler on a hot, sunny day. Cool roofs come in a variety of materials, including asphalt, wood, or polymer shingles, clay or concrete tiles, metal, and more.

A standard roof can hold a live load of about 20 pounds per square foot. However, gable roofs often have steeper-than-average slopes, so calculating their weight capacity can be challenging. If the slope of your gable roof is greater than 4:12, the live load needs to be decreased to allow for a larger dead load. Ask your roofer exactly how much weight your roof can support.

You should plan on waiting as long as it takes for the roof deck to dry out completely if it gets wet. In most cases, this will take about 24 hours, but it could take longer if you have shading on your roof or cloudy weather after the rainfall that prevents the sun from drying the material.

Yes, shingles should overhang the drip edge, typically between 1/2-inch and 3/4-inch. An overhang shorter than 1/2-inch can allow wind-driven rain to get under the shingles and damage the roof deck or fascia. Conversely, an overhang longer than 3/4-inch increases the risk of shingles getting caught by strong winds, which can lead to roof uplift. Always check your local building code for exact overhang requirements in your area.

Roll roofs don’t last as long as traditional roofs, like those made of asphalt shingles. A roll roof typically lasts between five and 15 years, whereas a shingled roof will last between 20 and 50  years. Modified bitumen roofs are similar in look to rolled roofing but have a 12 to 15 year warranty.
