"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."

The lifespan of asphalt shingles is typically between 15 and 30 years, depending on the type of shingle and other factors. Standard 3-tab shingles have the shortest lifespan, around 10 to 15 years. Architectural shingles last longer, averaging 20 to 25 years. Luxury or designer asphalt shingles are the most durable, with a lifespan of 40 years or more. Climate, installation quality, and regular maintenance also play a significant role in how long your shingles will last. Signs that they need replacement include granule loss, bald spots, and roof leaks.
EPDM roofing is a single-ply roofing material made of rubber, and a professional will install it in a single sheet and seal the seams. Built-up roofing (BUR) consists of multiple layers made from asphalt, adhesives, and roofing felt. A professional will construct the layers of BUR on-site. EPDM is easier to repair and has better resistance to extreme temperatures, while BUR is more fire-resistant and affordable.
Building code allows 24-inch on-center spacing for roof trusses. However, you can install them on 12- or 16-inch centers to handle large loads or other exceptional circumstances. In cases such as covering a wide span or supporting alternative roofing materials, where a structural engineer needs to evaluate or create a design for your trusses, the plans will indicate the spacing.
Asking questions before hiring a roofer ensures you receive the best quality for your investment upfront and in the long term. Roofers with minimal experience, unfamiliar with local building codes, or minimal access to great materials can lead to both structural and financial problems down the line. You should also be able to easily communicate and collaborate with your roofer during extensive projects.
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.
