"Great experience with Mike, he helped us with our roof replacement and made it more affordable than we ever could’ve thought! Can’t wait to get the roof done."
"I am so glad that I hired Joe's Roofing Solutions for my roofing project. Joe was very professional from the beginning to the end. He was also very thorough in his explanation of what needed to be repaired, which assured me that he was very well versed in his craft."
"While removing the old roof, the aluminum coverings on our mansard roof dormers were damaged. The roofing crew attempted to repair the damage but the result was not satisfactory. As compensation they deducted a small amount from the total bill."
"We needed a new roof on our house. We also needed new skylights.I was referred to Rapid Home Improvement (RHI) from Mark Pytiak of Green Home Energy, who had done some work in my home. I had estimates from 4 different roofing/home improvement companies to which I had been referred. From my first contact with Mike Beaty of Rapid Home Improvement, I knew this was the company I wanted to use. Mike Beaty promptly returned my first phone call and came to my house on time to look at my roof on the date we agreed upon. He was pleasant, knowledgeable and professional. He took as much time as I needed to help me understand his recommendations. He went up on my roof and took pictures to show me where there were holes and shingles missing. He sent me a very detailed estimate the next day. He answered all my questions while waiting for me to decide who to use for this job. He provided references upon request and answered any follow up questions I had. We negotiated a price for the job that was satisfactory to us both. His workers showed up on time on the agreed upon start date. The new roof and skylights were installed over 2 days without incident. The workers cleaned up my property well and nothing was damaged. One of the solar shades on one of the skylights was not aligned properly. The worker who was in charge of this part of the job very pleasantly solved the problem once I brought it to his attention. Mike Beaty followed up in person to inspect the job and make sure we were satisfied. We were very satisfied and have had no problems with the new roof or skylights. "
"Great job replacing my roof. Price was good. The crew was very professional, worked quickly and were careful in cleaning up the yard after they were fiinished. Next month they will replace 21 windows in my home."
"Very professional company, the Roofers arrived 30 minutes ahead of the scheduled time. They completed my roof in a timely manner and did an excellent job cleaning up the debris and nails. Thank You."
Ideally, you shouldn’t pay your roofer upfront unless you’re special-ordering materials. However, anything between 10% and 15% of the project’s cost is reasonable to pay upfront. Avoid making a final payment until after the roof gets completed.
Sometimes, a local authority won’t approve a request for a roofing permit. This may be because of incomplete documentation, unclear project plans, processing delays, or insufficient communication. There may also be discrepancies with building codes.
Yes, all roofs can benefit from flashing. Roof flashing can protect a property from water damage, roof leaks, mold, and other serious issues. It’s vital if you’d like to extend the lifespan of your roof and avoid costly repairs down the road.
Yes, you can walk on torch down roofing. It is durable and tear-resistant enough to handle that kind of low-level wear. Remember that torch down roofing can get uncomfortably hot in certain climates. Dark roofing absorbs heat and can burn bare feet. If you want to use a roof deck for lounging, you may want to install a lighter-colored PVC membrane.
Yes, algae-resistant shingles will prevent algae and moss growth, providing double protection for your roof and roof flashing. The copper-infused granules on algae-resistant shingles release copper ions that inhibit plant growth in general, so moss will have a harder time growing on your roof, too. Keep in mind that copper ions flowing off your roof during rainfall can also inhibit plant growth below, so your gardens and grass may be affected.
