"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

Asphalt shingles are the least-expensive roofing material. They cost around $10,000 for a 1,600-square-foot home compared to $16,500 for metal roofing or $25,000 for slate shingles.

Roofers most often use nails to fasten roofing shingles and other roofing materials. Nails have more holding power than staples and offer better weather resistance and longevity. However, it is possible to use staples instead of nails when installing a roof. Staples are less expensive, but not as high-quality.

The proper specifications for furring strips can vary, so you should always consult the roofing manufacturer's guidelines or your roofer. However, general recommendations are as follows:

  • Thickness: Furring strips are typically 1 to 1-1/2 inches thick, meaning standard 1-by or 2-by lumber works well. In areas with extreme winds, a thinner strip may be preferred to limit how much air can get under the roof and cause uplift. A thicker strip can add slightly more insulation but will also increase installation costs.

  • Spacing: The recommended spacing for furring strips is between 12 and 24 inches apart on center. Proper spacing is crucial for ensuring good airflow, adequate drainage, noise reduction, and better energy efficiency. The ideal spacing can depend on the roof's pitch and the specific type of metal roofing being installed.

The average cost to winterize a house is about $250, but it can range from $65 to $1,000 depending on the type of work that needs to be done. For homeowners that are experienced DIYers, it can save quite a bit on costs. However, you shouldn’t attempt tasks you aren’t familiar with or are potentially dangerous.

Whether or not the terms of your roofing estimate are negotiable depends on the contractor. Some professional roofers will be willing to budge on labor fees to some extent, while others will simply walk away from the potential work rather than lower their fees. In most cases, it’s best not to negotiate the terms, as lower labor charges could lead to your contractor cutting corners. Material costs aren’t negotiable, but you could purchase them yourself to try to save on delivery fees and markups.
