I take pride in working for myself,which enables me to get 90% of my work from customers who pass my name along. I have been on roofs since I was 17 with my dads small company. Now at 43 I am doing the same thing. I love working with shingles and homes that are unique.There are people who need my service but think they cannot afford to repair or replace thier roof. I am in a position where the years of roofing experience have taught me to solve the problems many Mainers face with our harsh winters.I take pride in my many local references. You can call my references and speak with real people about what I did to thier home. Or you can drive to the addresses listed and see in person the particular job.I have the ability to get jobs done on time because of the years of experience with roofs,where most companys will still be there. I price my jobs at the lowest possible price while still using the best materials avaiable.I have two employees who have been with me for 5 years. There is no drinking or drug use by my company. Most roofing companies have that issue. It cost no money for me to give you my estimate.I make sure that the homeowner knows exactly what im using for materials and how im using them.I love what I do. Thats why I am able to do it where everyone is happy they picked me as thier contractor.

Chimney Caps questions, answered by experts

You can damage your shingles if you use the wrong type of paint on them. You should always use acrylic latex paint specifically formulated for shingles. Other types of paint may trap moisture, which can cause bigger problems like rot and mildew. Considering that roof replacement costs $9,100 on average, it’s definitely best to avoid making this mistake.

Besides using the right paint, remember that painting your shingles will require increased maintenance.

Whether you should choose a flat roof or a sloped roof depends on your particular situation. Flat roofs tend to be less expensive to install. However, sloped roofs have longer lifespans and stand up better to heavy snow and other inclement weather.

Keep in mind that even a flat roof needs to have a slight slope, usually around 1/2 inch for every foot. If it is completely flat, water will pool and cause damage, either from weight or leakage or rot.

Wood shake roofs are durable, energy-efficient, and offer a natural aesthetic. Composite options provide similar looks with less maintenance.

It’s the reverse of home de-winterization. To winterize, you purge your plumbing system (including your water heater and all piping) of water. Some experts also recommend filling fixtures with an antifreeze solution. Other tasks involve winterizing sprinklers, sealing foundation vents, check weatherproofing around doors and windows, and more.

The short answer is, yes, cedar shakes do last longer than asphalt shingles. But the long answer is, it depends on maintenance. Asphalt shingles last about 20 years, while cedar shingles typically last about 30 years with proper maintenance. If they are very well maintained and installed in an area with a mild, drier climate, they can last up to 50 years.
