"Overall A great experience. Promptly gave a quote. Got the job done sooner than I expected. Looks great and I looked not having to pull snow off the roof last winter. So far this summer the house feels cooler with the metal roof. Only reason I donâ  t give 5 stars is there were a lot of nails left around the house and garage from the tear off -some in the driveway but fortunately I did not get a flat tire pulling in at night when I came up the weekend after the job was done. I had to run into town and rent a magnet on wheels. Picked up 2-3 cups of nails. That said I do love the roof and would hire them again"

"Dan treats his customers with respect and kindness. After the devastating storm that rolled through, he had already stopped by to scope out my roof and get things prepared to order before I even contacted him. When I did talk to Dan, I found out he was out checking on customers before even cleaning up his own property. Thats a top-level company when they think about their customers before themselves. I have nothing but praise to say about Dan. My roof was installed by him about 3 years ago, and even with the storm it held firm. I only lost some minor flashing when someone else's roof hit mine and tore it off."

Roofing questions, answered by experts

A standard roof can hold a live load of about 20 pounds per square foot. However, gable roofs often have steeper-than-average slopes, so calculating their weight capacity can be challenging. If the slope of your gable roof is greater than 4:12, the live load needs to be decreased to allow for a larger dead load. Ask your roofer exactly how much weight your roof can support.

Underlayment is required by building code, so any roof installed without it is technically against code. The underlayment acts as the second layer of defense against water, so installing a roof without underlayment means a much higher risk of roof leaks. You’ll have the best chance of avoiding roof leaks if you install drip edge flashing covered by underlayment, and then install your roofing material over that.

Clay tile roofing is common for traditional villas, while flat roofs are more standard for modern villa homes. Clay tile roofs are long-lasting, require little maintenance, and are great for warmer climates. Flat roofs are usually low-cost, energy-efficient, and allow for rooftop gardens. 

You shouldn’t put a new roof underlayment over an old one for a few reasons. Old felt must be removed in order to assess the condition of your roof decking, such as rotting wood or other structural issues. Also, if your roofer doesn't install a fresh layer of felt as is required by shingle manufacturers, your warranty may be voided. Finally, old underlayment removal is often included in the cost of roof repair or replacement, so there's no real benefit to leaving it on before installing a new layer.

Copper roofs last an average of around 100 years, making it one of the longest-lasting types of roofs. It’s significantly more expensive than an asphalt shingle roof, but it also lasts three to four times as long, providing great value for the money. You can extend the life of your copper roof by carrying out routine maintenance, like scheduling annual cleaning and roof inspections.
