"What a seamless, smooth experience working with Walter at Vald Roofing. The customer service was great, the quote was very competitive, and they were always on time. They came out to give a quote within a day of contacting them. Then, once we signed the contract, Walter and his crew were back to start the project within a week and finished within a couple days. He was always very responsive via email and was able to answer all my questions regarding the work done (in terms I could understand). I also appreciate how they took before, during and after photos (since I cannot see the top of my roof). I highly recommend this company and working with Walter!"

"It was a pleasure dealing with Wes, Tom and Bob from the estimate all the way through to the clean up. The crew was very pleasant and professional from start to finish. The crew promptly arrived at 7:00 am and were cleaned up by 12:30 pm. The roof on my home has never looked better! Thank You all at Bob The Builder for a great job done at a reasonable price!?"

"David came out and looked at my roof repair needs and gave me a quote on the spot. I decided to go ahead, since he was able to secure closely matching shingles and take care of it this same day. Now, I have a fixed up garage roof and gutter before the next forecast rain. Quite thankful for that."

"WOW , is all we can say . Casey the representative came out and assessed the work needed to be done . Second City is great because they are honest , reasonably priced , on time and they are not in the business of doing unnecessary work just to make more money . They finance which was a concern for us , so that worked out as well . We were quite impressed by the on time up to the minute arrival of not only Casey but the roofing crew , tuck pointing crew and facia and soffit crew . Everyone was extremely punctual . We were happy about that because we have a very tight schedule . Casey explained to us in terms we could understand what need to be done . We got a $300.00 discount for using the flyer that was placed on our door . We originally intended get the roof done ( only ) , but after the roof was on completed in 2 1/2 days and the work was solid and professional , it looked Awesome !!!! , I know this because the roofer got on the roof with my iPhone and took pictures so that we could see . It was at that point that we knew we could count on Second City to do work on our home . That is when we added the tuck pointing and facia and soffit repair , these guys do a GREAT JOB !!!! . We are so happy about the work . The work was so beautiful on the that our mail woman had her mom call to get Second City to do her roof . Our neighbors are also impressed . Casey came out to make sure we were satisfied and had any issues rectified A.S.A.P. . We have more work that needs to be done in the near future like , new windows , patio , garage repair and for all of it we will be calling Second City . Oh , I forgot to mention for doing business with Second City we got a beautiful set of porcelain coffee mugs , the customer service rep. Mike Murphy hand delivered them to our home , what a great way to show appreciation . The solid roof was one thing but getting great work and great customer It's wonderful to find contractors you can trust ."

Roofing questions, answered by experts

A roof overlay will last an average of 15 years, compared to the 20 to 30 years or more that a full roof replacement for a shingle roof will last. An overlay’s lifespan may be shortened even further if there’s underlying damage to the existing roof or structural problems with the roof supports.

Technically speaking, yes, verbal agreements and “handshake deals” can be legally binding contracts that will hold up in court, but the suing party will need to be able to prove that the parties entered into the contract. Even though verbal and handshake deals can be binding, it’s risky to rely on these types of agreements for anything, including roofing projects. Always aim to get your contract in writing, and make sure it includes all terms and that you don’t agree to additional terms that don’t appear in the contract.

A roof can collapse from a leak if the leak is left unattended long enough. A collapse will happen when the structural components of your roof become saturated with water over time. The roof deck or rafters can slowly weaken until they can no longer support the weight of your roof.

The best kind of tarp for a roof is one that will stand up to the elements, weather, and sun. Viny roof tarps are known for their durability and resistance to water, tears, and mold—making these tarps a good choice for use in winter conditions and the summer sun. Polyethylene tarps are also quite durable and waterproof.

There are two main types of roofing shingles: 3-tab and architectural. Architectural shingles cost more than 3-tab but offer a more unique look and can last longer. However, 3-tab shingles are lightweight and affordable, and many people use them for both patching roofs and installing new roofs. Ultimately, the best type for you depends on your budget and your home’s aesthetic.
