"Alsip Roofing provides excellent work and customer service. I had a new roof installed in Nov 2022, and I contacted them again in March 2023 for new gutters with leaf guards. Both times the work was completed within the time frame that I was given. The crew cleaned up all debris as if they had not been there. The crew was professional and courteous. I will definitely recommend Alsip Roofing."

"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

A cool roof can be worth it in the right climate. Cool roofs are excellent at reflecting solar heat away from your home, so if you live in a warm or hot climate, they can be a great roofing choice. Some cool roofing materials are even eligible for tax credits. However, they cost more than traditional roofing and don’t retain heat as well as traditional roofing, so they’re not ideal if you live in a cold climate.

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.

Homeowners insurance typically covers roof repairs or replacement if the damage is caused by a sudden, accidental event or a covered peril, such as a storm, wind, hail, fire, or a falling tree. However, insurance will not cover repairs or replacement for issues stemming from a lack of maintenance, normal wear and tear, or a roof that is simply old and at the end of its lifespan. If a leak or damage occurs due to neglect, you will likely have to pay for repairs out of pocket.

A roof pitch that’s too shallow won’t shed runoff as quickly, so you have an increased risk of water intrusion through the seams between your roofing materials. In colder climates, snow and ice will accumulate more easily on your roof, which can add enough weight to cause roof collapse and structural damage to your home.

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.
