"When I needed an emergency roof repair, and called Home Advisor, Mike with Gemini Roofing called me back right away, came out that same day, and repaired our roof because of the bad weather that was coming so we wouldn't get further damage done to our house and couldn't have been nicer to work with. His crew were just as nice too. So glad we met him through Home Advisor, and got our roof repaired very well."

"I had a great experience working with Guardian Roofing Systems. From start to finish, they were professional, prompt, and thorough. The team showed up on time and completed the job within the timeframe they promised, which I really appreciated. What stood out most was how clearly they explained every step of the process—from the initial inspection to the final cleanup. They took the time to answer my questions and made sure I understood what work was being done and why. Overall, I’m very satisfied with the quality of their work and the level of service I received. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them to anyone in need of flat roofing services."

Roofing questions, answered by experts

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.

Underlayment is required by building code, so any roof installed without it is technically against code. The underlayment acts as the second layer of defense against water, so installing a roof without underlayment means a much higher risk of roof leaks. You’ll have the best chance of avoiding roof leaks if you install drip edge flashing covered by underlayment, and then install your roofing material over that.

Roof work is dangerous and exacting, and a misstep could lead to even more costly repairs, so we do not recommend DIYing. If you are dead set on giving it a go, practice safety measures. Wear a harness, only work during mild weather, and have a partner to help. Potentially DIY-friendly jobs include patching up small leaks, sealing areas around the chimney, and replacing a few shingles.

Many insurance policies will not cover a roof with two layers of shingles. An additional layer of shingles increases the risk of various kinds of damage, and insurers typically won’t pay claims on a roof with an overlay. Adding a layer of shingles may even jeopardize your insurance coverage entirely, so check your policy to ensure you stay within coverage guidelines. 

After you've chosen the best roofer for you, schedule an inspection and review the final contract. Your roofing company should be able to provide options for scheduling the work and a potential timeline for obtaining the permits and starting the job. Remember to always request everything in writing before work begins.
