"This company is wonderful to work with. A crew came at 7 am July 2nd & completely tore off shingles & re-roofed my house in one day! It took them 3 hours the next morning to complete the detached garage. They were quick & efficient. We went with Malarkey Legacy shingles so the price was a little more for us. My neighbor had another company roof their house & their roofers took 9 days to complete!"
"I have a very complex roof with many ridges and the new shingles and treatment of ridges far exceeds previous roofing I had done. The roof looks beautiful with no metal ridges and looks well installed I wanted an unusual color and the owner was quick to give me two excellent examples. The color was much better than original roo, better matching the brick Rarely does a company want to deliver before the original date planned. But my job got done three week early! It caused me to reschedule my life a bit, but was happy to get it done! Thank you for a roof that adds value to my house in appearance and quality."
"I was pleased with my experience with All States Exteriors. I had them replace all of the siding on my house with pre-painted Hardiplank siding and also had them replace my wood shake roof with a composite roof. Their bids were competitive and their work was outstanding. I dealt with Wes, and he was not high pressure at all; he made recommendations to help me stay within my budget. All States was the only contractor to give me a bid for the pre-painted Hardiplank siding; all of the other contractors wanted to install the unpainted and then I would have had to have someone else paint. All States did an excellent job installing the pre-painted."
"The two installers did an excellent job. I had received estimates from other companies, and they were reluctant to take on the challenge of this particular job. I am so pleased with the workmanship and the look of the new gutter. It is a metal roof, and the invisible hanging attachments were the perfect solution. Thank you to Stormy and Abraham for their hard work, professionalism and for the Girl Scout cookies."

Moving a chimney is possible, but it is a very complex process that requires professional expertise, knowledge of building codes, and safety protocols. Most homeowners find it easier to remove the fireplace and build a new fireplace and chimney in the new location of your home. Talk to your chimney pro about all your options, their costs, and pros and cons.
The best style of chimney cap for a brick chimney is one that fits tightly around the brick top of the chimney. The cap should have a screen to fully enclose it to keep animals out. The best materials include stainless steel, copper, or aluminum that fit tightly or are custom fabricated for a perfect fit on your chimney.
Yes, moss can be dangerous for your roof if left in place to grow without treatment. The moss soaks up and holds moisture. Having a constantly damp roof could lead to problems with rot for the parts of the roof that consist of wood. Additionally, a patch of thick moss may draw insects and birds, which could damage the roof. Thick moss could block the roof’s drainage system. Water then may back up after a rainstorm and cause further damage that could eventually lead to roof repair expenses or the cost of roof replacement.
Roofers don’t typically replace vent pipes themselves, but they do handle the flashing and seals around vent pipes when working on a roof. During a roof replacement or repair, roofers inspect the vent pipe flashing for damage, replace deteriorated seals, and ensure the pipe is properly integrated into the roofing system to prevent leaks. If the vent pipe itself is cracked or damaged, a plumber is usually required to replace it, while the roofer ensures the roofing components around the pipe remain watertight.
Furring strips (also called wood stripping) are not always necessary for a metal roof installation, but they are highly recommended and may be required by local building codes or the roofing manufacturer's specifications. There are several key reasons to use them:
Energy Efficiency: Furring strips, made of wood or metal, create an air gap between the metal panels and the roof deck. This acts as a thermal break, reducing heat transfer into your home and improving overall energy efficiency.
Moisture and Condensation Control: The air gap allows for better airflow, which helps prevent moisture buildup and condensation under the metal panels.
Structural Support: They provide a solid, even frame to which you can attach the metal roofing panels.
It is especially important to use furring strips when installing a metal roof over existing shingles. Without them, the roof surface can be uneven, and you will experience greater solar heat gain.
