"Mr. Reynolds came out the SAME DAY that I called, a Saturday. It was a day of heavy rain and flooding (and therefore the leaks in the roof revealed themselves). He had to drive far out of his way to get to me because of the flooding in his rural area, but he made it. I was very grateful because my home was on the market, and I was fretting over the time and cost of roof repairs. Mr. Reynolds checked out the roof and gave me a reasonable estimate that day; he honored the Angie's List coupon I had. I owned half a duplex, and he looked at my neighbors' side as well. Their side also had soil pipes that needed to be replaced. The neighbors half was also on the market. Mr. Reynolds felt an inspector would cite the need for repairs. I was able to let my neighbor know of the situation so he could check for leaks and not have an unpleasant surprise in his house during showings. The repairs were completed a few days later. PSR made the extremely inconvenient and untimely situation as painless as possible. "
"Gary, was very helpful and pointed me on the right direction after I had discussed my concerns. Had he been able to help me I would have gladly hired him. My system ended up being under warranty and he suggested I contact the manufacture as to not void my warranty."
"We were contacted within hours of the time I had requested information on roofing companies in the area. We were given an estimate within the week and work was completed within 6 weeks.. We have a home that dates into the 1800s, 2 story with attic; and this required removing multiple layers of shingles down to the original wood shakes and starting from scratch. We are extremely happy with the results, the professionalism of the crew, their strong work ethic and desire to do the best job."
A tarp can temporarily stop a roof leak, but how long the solution works heavily depends on the placement and size of the leak. While a tarp can be a temporary solution, it’s crucial to have a professional inspect and repair the leak as soon as possible to implement a permanent fix.
The lifespan of an impact-resistant roof averages 30 to 50 years, depending on the quality of the shingles and the amount of wear and tear it endures. Some high-quality shingles may last even longer. For comparison, a standard asphalt roof lasts about 20 years, so choosing an impact-resistant option can increase your roof's lifespan by 50% or more, particularly in regions prone to extreme weather.
Yes, roof ridge caps are a necessary part of your roof system. Your roof ridge cap is at the peak of your roof, where two slopes of your roof meet. Roof ridge caps seal the seam and help protect your roof from water and debris, and because they’re pre-bent and thicker, they’re more suited to the job than regular roof shingles, which can break when bent.
Yes, in many cases, homeowners insurance does cover roof damage caused by snow. For instance, if your roof collapses during a snowstorm or an ice dam results in a ceiling leak, your policy should cover repair costs. However, for a claim to be approved, the roof must have been well-maintained and in good condition before the snow-related damage occurred. The payout, whether full or partial, can also vary depending on the age of your roof and its overall condition prior to the snowfall. It is always best to review your specific homeowners insurance policy to understand the details of your coverage and any potential exclusions.
You’re going to need a permit for nearly every roof-raising project. This is a very important step, as the work you’re doing has serious safety considerations. Professionals are the ones to handle this type of work—including sourcing the permits—as they have the expertise required to perform the work safely. Insurance and warranty are usually voided if you do this work without a permit, and you may even be required to halt construction and tear it down as a penalty for working without a building permit.
