Hi, We have been in business since 1993. I am accredited through the BBB, Licensed / Insured. Usually ask for 1/2 down to start and the balance upon completion, unless we're building a house for you or a large remodeling job, then there would be drawls. Most of our clients are repeat clients and also refer us to others.

"I can honestly see why their reviews are so low. They do a poor job of communication. They would not do some warranty work over $43. I simply asked them to prove it over and over with invoices and insurance claims. They never did and were always confrontational. I have no problem paying it if they would simply prove it. I already paid thousands so why would I not pay the $43. That does not justify passing on the warranty work for a customer. Stay away from this company I wish one star was not allowed. They simply do not deserve such a high rating"

Chimney Caps questions, answered by experts

Once framing is complete, you will need the following materials to roof a house:

  • Wood sheathing

  • Drip edge, a.k.a metal flashing

  • Underlayment for waterproofing

  • Roof covering, like metal or asphalt shingles

Fall is usually considered the best time of year to replace a roof, as the temperatures are moderate, and having your living space exposed to the outdoors won’t cause extreme temperatures inside. Spring could also work, but the higher risk of rainfall makes fall the best time of year overall. You can opt for a replacement in the summer or spring to avoid peak demand and potentially save some money, though.

Gaps between tiles are necessary to help with weatherproofing, allow for thermal expansion, and increase wind resistance. In general, a small gap no larger than 3 millimeters wide will encourage proper drainage and limit cracking. Beyond that, tiles should overlap a minimum of 3 inches, except at the eaves where they should extend to the center of the gutter.

Tile roofs usually last for at least 50 years, and with proper maintenance, you could see 100 years of useful life from them. You’ll need to carry out routine repairs within that time frame, especially if any of the tiles crack, and your maintenance will be a bit more expensive in most cases than with an asphalt roof.

Yes, thatched roofs are legal in most areas in the U.S., but you should always check your local building codes to ensure there are no restrictions in your particular area before installing one. Even where they are legal, you’ll usually need to apply fireproofing to the roof to keep it up to code. Keep in mind that a new roof might not increase home value as much if you choose a thatched roof, as they aren’t common in the U.S. and might not be as desirable to many home buyers.
