"We had a great experience with On Top Roofing. They returned my call for a quote request within one day and had someone out to give an estimate within a couple of days after that. We obtained several estimates, On Top was the only company that actually climbed up on a ladder to really look at the area of concern and where work needed to be done during the estimate. After we received the quote, the work was done within the scheduled time and completed as agreed. I would definitely consider On Top again for future roofing needs."
"Matt sat down and explained everything from start to finish, before any work was to begin. The workers were very kind and made sure they cleaned up immaculately. Once the roof was complete Matt made sure we were 100% happy. We would highly recommend MTS Siding and roofing."
"Manny was on time, professional, and pleasant. He replaced our flat roof in one day. It looks great and we hope it will "winter well". Thanks for providing us his name and reviews. Joyce B in Wellesley"
"Long Roofing went above and beyond when installing our roof and gutter. The job turned out more difficult than we thought it would be but Long Roofing made me feel comfortable and reassured that they would fix everything. Everyone involved from the salesperson to customer service listened to our needs and treated me with respect. The roof looks amazing. I don't want to get into price, but even though you may get someone less expensive, using Log Roofing was well worth a little extra cost"
"They did an excellent job replacing the roof of my porch. They did it in a timely manner and clean up all the debris. The price was right on the mark. I recommend them for any roof repair."
"Power Home Remodeling did a great job replacing my entire roof. They were professional, efficient, polite, and respectful of my property. The crew did an excellent job keeping my property safe, worked quickly and the roof looks beautiful."
"The cost of metal roof is more than asphalt but this roof comes with 50 year guarantee. Since this is our third roof , I wish we had this option years ago. Roof looks great"
Yes, impact-resistant roofs can lower your homeowners insurance. Some insurance companies offer discounts or reduced rates if you use Class 4 or Class 3 shingles.
Proposals, invoices, and estimates are most often used as marketing documents and are not legally binding. Contracts are legally binding documents that detail the service offering, project considerations, and signatures from all parties. If you signed a proposal for discussion purposes while requesting a quote and you decide to hire your roofer, make sure the contracting party follows through with a legally binding contract to protect both parties.
Roofing felt is the most common type of roof underlayment, likely because it has been around the longest. It’s called roofing felt because it is often made of felt soaked in asphalt. Depending on the type of roofing a home has, roofing felt comes in different thicknesses.
If properly installed and maintained, roofing felt should last between 10 and 25 years.
Thatched roofs are expensive for two main reasons: high labor costs and low supply of available roofers. The labor is more intensive for a thatched roof than other roof materials, so your contractor will work longer and charge more for the installation. There are also few professionals with the specialized skills and experience to install thatched roofs. Since the supply of available professionals is low, the cost of compensation is high.
Chimney caps may be installed by a few different professionals, including a chimney sweep or a mason that specializes in fireplaces and chimneys. A gas fireplace technician is the best person to install a chimney cap on a gas log fireplace vent to be sure the cap is appropriate for the application.
