"I’ve used Amazing Skylight on 3 separate occasions. The 1st time I had a skylight put in my kitchen, in a bathroom with no window and in a bedroom that didn’t get a lot of sunlight. Several years later I had them put a skylight in my entryway. This last time they put a new roof on my house. Each time they were both friendly and professional and best of all each time they did a great job. I will definitely use them again and with peace of mind."
"They did an excellent job; they were very responsive to our problem of the vends leaking. Their crew we very professional, courteous and competent. Highly recommend them for any roofing issues."
"We were convinced to have our roof done after the roofing expert inspected our roof and sat us down for his presentation. We appreciated the time spent to explain the project management plan from the delivery of materials to the post-installation inspection. Everyone we met was very professional and the clean up crew did a great job."
"Informative and friendly first meeting, complete with detailed photos of the entire roof and an explanation of the process, followed by 1-day installation of a new roof, with excellent workmanship and a hardworking crew."

If you live on the West Coast or anywhere with the threat of wildfires, you likely want to take steps to fireproof your home.

Consult a professional roofer for details on what type of roofing would be best for you if fire resistance is a priority.
Yes, an underlayment is required for metal roofs, especially when installed over an indoor residential living space. This underlayment acts as a protective barrier between the metal roofing and the roof deck. Common materials include tar, asphalt felt, or woven synthetic polymers. Depending on local building codes, existing shingles in good condition may also suffice. A quality underlayment is crucial as it provides protection against water intrusion, improves energy efficiency through insulation, helps absorb sound, and ultimately extends the lifespan of your roof.
Yes, clay and concrete tile roofs will keep your home cooler in the summer for two reasons. First, the material has low heat conductivity, so heat transfer from the sunlight and the outside air to your home will be very slow. Additionally, tile roofs have air gaps between the tiles and the roof decking, which helps further insulate your structure from heat gain. Light-colored tile is especially energy-efficient and will minimize how much outside heat transfers into your home.
