"I worked with James and he was fantastic to work with. We submitted my claim to insurance company and they denied it but James knew what to do next. We submitted and appraisal and my roof was covered. James is super nice and helpful. He would answer all my questions even if at crazy times of the day. My roof looks great with Owens Corning dimension shingles which James helped me pick out. I would high recommend them for your roofing needs."
"The purchase was made in November 2016 but due to inclement weather and cold temperatures the actual project was postponed until suitable weather. Mr. Wilson monitored weather conditions, kept me informed, and the work was scheduled one of the very first days the temperature and weather permitted. The Apex crew were on-the-dot punctual. The work was done in nearly the exact time duration as estimated and the final bill was comparable with the estimate. Their work was done according to regulation and the work inspected -- something that the previous owners had obviously not done when the project was first completed. It is so nice to know that the roof is solid and up to code. It looks nice to not see the rotted boards, and I really appreciate parking and not getting dripped on!"
"Always spoke with Leroy who did what he said he would do including to always call back. Did a repair for me and made sure to inspect and repair a couple of other weak areas. I would suggest everyone who needs roofing work done to call L Roofing. Jim B."

"Mr. Shelter was did an excellent job putting a "rubber" roof on our sun porch. He answered my questions, took pictures before & after, cleaned up the scraps and was a pleasant person to deal with. I would recommend him to anyone needing roofing services."
"I randomly chose to call this company as it was local. I needed a few shingles replaced due to high winds. They promptly got back with me and was able to do the repair in the same week. Very courteous employee, he checked the condition of my entire roof, explained the repair needed. He did not try to sell me a whole roof replacement. I will certainly use this company again if the need arises and would not hesitate to recommend them."

You can think of a flat roof as a green roof, as it does offer some environmentally-friendly advantages. When considering an eco-friendly flat roof, some of the green roof pros and cons include that you could place a garden with plants on the flat roof. Manufacturers may use recycled materials in the construction of the flat roof for an eco-friendly design.
A roof's lifespan can range from 15 to 200 years, with an average of 25 to 50 years, depending heavily on the material, quality of installation, maintenance, and local climate. Asphalt shingle roofs are common and typically last 15 to 30 years; three-tab shingles have a lifespan of about 20 years, while architectural shingles can last up to 30. More durable materials have longer lifespans: metal roofs last 30 to 100 years, clay and concrete can last 50 to 100 years, and slate roofs can last up to 200 years with proper care. Regular maintenance, such as cleaning gutters and replacing damaged shingles, is crucial for extending the life of any roof.
Asphalt shingles are the least-expensive roofing material. They cost around $10,000 for a 1,600-square-foot home compared to $16,500 for metal roofing or $25,000 for slate shingles.
The most common roof pitch is 4:12, which means a rise of 4 inches for every 12 inches of horizontal run. However, roof pitch varies widely based on roof design, climate, and even the roofing materials you plan to install. Your building type also plays a role, as flat roofs are common on commercial buildings and some modern homes.
