"This company is outstanding. They tore off the old roof and replaced a new roof in 9 hours with a crew of 7. Everything was put back in place and cleaned up perfectly. I did not find one nail anywhere after they left. This is the second time High Top Roofing was contracted to do the job in 18 years. Great company and Dan is wonderful to work with."

"My sales person Ian Holland is the best, he was kind, friendly and very professional. He provided an estimate, (which was a great price compared to the other roof estimates that I had received) and explained everything that was involved in tearing off the old roof to installation of the new roof. I would strongly recommend A&D Home Improvement for all of your home improvement needs. The contractors and staff were very patient, and helpful in answering all my questions. I am happy with my new roof. They do great work!"

"Daniel helped us resolve a very difficult and stressful roofing problem. We had a new roof installed on our home, but it was not done properly. Daniel carefully inspected the situation, worked with us to develop a solution, and installed a high-quality roof built to last. He also helped us determine the right ventilation system, giving us confidence and peace of mind. I highly recommend Daniel for inspecting, planning, and installing residential flat roofs."

"I had a great experience with Montes Roofing. Jesus is very thorough, does great work, is very reliable, and he took the time to fully explain the issues with my roof and what needs to be done to fix them. Throughout the process, he would invite me up to the roof to point out and explain some of the things he had mentioned to me earlier. He clearly loves what he does, is passionate about it, and is an expert at his craft. I really appreciate the way he does business and would highly recommend his company to anybody who has any kind of roofing needs."

Roofing FAQs, answered by experts

Wood shake roofs are durable, energy-efficient, and offer a natural aesthetic. Composite options provide similar looks with less maintenance.

You shouldn’t put a new roof underlayment over an old one for a few reasons. Old felt must be removed in order to assess the condition of your roof decking, such as rotting wood or other structural issues. Also, if your roofer doesn't install a fresh layer of felt as is required by shingle manufacturers, your warranty may be voided. Finally, old underlayment removal is often included in the cost of roof repair or replacement, so there's no real benefit to leaving it on before installing a new layer.

To cap off a chimney flue, start by measuring its width, length, and diameter, if it’s circular. Purchase a cap that fits the flue, and decide whether you want a temporary or permanent model. Then, slide or insert the cap onto the flue and secure it with a screwdriver. Be sure to avoid over-tightening the screws to prevent chimney damage. 

Most roof leaks occur where shingles meet or where there are sealants or seams in the materials. This is common around skylights and at any point there is a break in the roof such as corners and edges. Roofing materials are incredibly strong and resistant when overlapping, but any change in that can cause gaps where water can enter.

The most common slope range for roofs on houses in snowy areas is between 4/12 and 6/12, or 50%. A roof with a slope of less than 10%, or roughly a 2/12 pitch, won’t be effective at shedding snow. However, roofs that are too steep can allow large amounts of snow to build up and fall all at once, creating a hazard for those on the ground.
