"I absolutely loved the roof from RAM roofing. Isaac and his team are efficient, friendly, and hard working. I had a leak in the roof. I was initially going to do a repair on the affected area, but after inspection, we decided to replace the entire roof and the wood underlay. I am so happy with the work they did and it looks absolutely great. I love the smooth look to the finish. Thanks again!"

From start to finish, Adam and Tre were incredibly professional and easy to work with. They walked me through every step of the process, from the initial inspection to final walk through, making the whole experience stress-free. The quality of their work is top-notch. The crew was efficient, cleaned up thoroughly after each day's work, and finished the job on time. My new roof looks amazing, and Iâ  ve already had neighbors asking who did the work.

Though roof coatings can last up to two decades, it’s a good idea to recoat your roof every four to six years. This is especially important if you have a built-up roof, which is vulnerable to moisture issues. Inspect your built-up roofs annually to make sure they don’t need a new coat.
Yes, copper roof strips can help prevent shingle damage and are an alternative to algae-resistant shingles. They work in a similar way: they release copper ions that interfere with algae, moss, and other plant growth. Algae feeds on limestone in your roof shingles, and moss can uplift shingles and increase the risk of leaks. If you have issues with algae or moss on your roof, copper roof strips can help avoid damage.
Homeowners insurance does not usually cover roof soft spot repair. Since this damage is usually caused by wear and tear and often found on aging roofs, your insurance claim will likely be rejected. If a soft spot develops due to damage from a storm, repairs may be covered, but in general, expect to pay out of pocket for soft spot repairs.
Verify that your roof is licensed and insured by visiting your state's contractor's licensing association. Most states have a database to double-check your contractor's name and address against the information provided. The contractor should also display both their license and insurance on their website with links to the related agencies.
Roof vents are an essential part of a roof, as they promote energy efficiency by keeping warm, humid air at bay. The roofing material, especially asphalt shingles, will not last as long as it should (about half of its manufacture life) if the attic is not ventilated. Also, going without ventilation means having a warm attic that demands more from your air conditioning system (and your wallet, once the bills come). Ridge vents and roof vents also prevent a host of other icky moisture-related problems like rot, mold, and mildew.
