"The decision to replace a roof is a big one, and Peak Roofing helped guide us every step of the way in the process. We had an old failing metal roof on our rental property. Damian, one of the partners, walked us through every step of the process and was very patient with all of the questions that my grandfather and I posed. He was very quick to fit us into the schedule. He was incredibly knowledgeable and informative regarding a type of roofing membrane that would fit well onto our style roof (lean-to flat roof). Tony, the other partner of the company accommodated the drop off location of the down payment, and even met us at our home so that my grandfather did not have to drive at night. On the day that the work commenced (and was completed!), Carlos, the foreman, kept me informed throughout the day of all progress. The team they brought along were so quick, efficient, and safe. They protected all utilities during construction and cleaned up before leaving. They will be coming back to install gutters on the home as well, soon as a few other projects get done. I am happy that they are able and willing to phase the work into different days. I would recommend Peak Roofing to anyone! They are professional and attentive. We are very happy with the product and especially the customer service."
"We had the pleasure of using Exteriormax for our roof repairs and I have to say, they performed an outstanding job! Chidi, who was the representative in charge with our work, exceeded all my expectations. He was professional, kind, and excellent at communicating. The roofing team was efficient and completed all the roof in a well-detailed and efficient manner. I would highly recommend using Exteriormax and their services!"
"I gave Tj my vision of a new open concept porch and new metal vertical siding and he and his team brought it to reality. It was far nicer than I even expected. The whole crew are very polite, professional, reasonable and very detail oriented. This is 2nd major project they did for us. Last year they did garage expansion and metal roof and siding. I love my house now all because of Tj. Will be using them again infact just asked for an estimate on new bathroom floor."
There are two main types of roofing shingles: 3-tab and architectural. Architectural shingles cost more than 3-tab but offer a more unique look and can last longer. However, 3-tab shingles are lightweight and affordable, and many people use them for both patching roofs and installing new roofs. Ultimately, the best type for you depends on your budget and your home’s aesthetic.
A gambrel roof and a mansard roof are similar in that they are both hipped roofs, meaning they have double slopes—one steep and one more gradual above the steep slope. The difference is that a gambrel roof has a double slope on only two sides of the structure, whereas a mansard roof has a double slope on all four sides.
Yes, many chimney professionals offer cap installations to prevent debris buildup and animal entry.
This will depend on your existing roof to some degree, but it’s common to raise a roof 4 to 8 feet. The exact amount you can raise is subject to the existing structure. For most homes with average roof slopes—20 to 45 degrees—you can raise the roof around 5 feet.
Tipping your roofer or their crew is not customary or expected, but it is always appreciated. It is entirely up to you whether you want to give them extra money for their work. If you feel they have done an exceptional job, a tip can be a nice gesture. As an alternative way to show appreciation, you can provide coffee, breakfast, drinks, or grab-and-go snacks like cookies or doughnuts.
