"Taylor Made is professional and went out of his way to meet me at Lowe’s to help me pick out siding and colors for my front door, he paid out of pocket for samples for me to take home. He worked endlessly with my insurance to make sure they paid the full amount for my roof. He met us at the shingle company to help me pick out the top of the line shingles for my roof. Taylor is prompt at getting me bids and contracts emailed to me and he follows through with everything on the contract with out me having to call repeatedly to ask if he will be finishing the work, Taylor Made has up to date payment methods, and is always willing to work with you on payments. I will continue to use Taylor Made Construction and highly recommend him to anyone."
"Diamond Roofing and Solar performed all of their commitments professionally and worked with our insurance company to provide the best job possible. They were always on time, used an experienced crew, and were very fair in all our dealings. Diamond roofed two properties for us and made their commitments in both time and quality of work. Both homes were completed within 9 days of the original bid. Diamond meticulously cleaned up after they completed the roofing better than any previous contractor.
Needless to say, I would gladly hire the company again."
"I am an out of town property owner and have rental property with two sides damaged by wind and time. I wanted several of the boards replaced but the owner of this company explained in detail the damages and recommended replacing the siding. His explanation was thorough and honest."
"The provider requested OK from Choice Warranty and he was denied. It rained last night and rain came into my home. It could have been avoided if Choice had just approved what I requested. Now, the damage will be greater than necessary. I blame Choice home warranty for my home damage. Now it will cost mote than a simple tarp could have prevented until I could get money to repair roof. The provider was great and tried his best to get something done to my roof but Choice Warranty was horrible and no help. They get a "zero" from me"
The four types of roof sheathing are plywood, oriented strand board (OSB), planks, and tone-and-groove boards. The overwhelming majority of homes use the first two (especially OSB) and the other two are not often seen outside of special use cases. Methods of sheathing include solid sheathing, open sheathing where there are gaps, and plank sheathing. Most roofs are solid sheathing.
While you don’t have to let roofers inside your home, it is proper etiquette to offer the use of your restrooms. And if it’s a hot day, it’s polite to invite the roofers into your house to cool off and have a chilled drink.
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.
Properly installed chimney flashing can last anywhere from 15 to 50 years. However, flashing generally only needs to be replaced when it is damaged, corroded, or no longer creates a watertight seal. Several factors influence its longevity, including the material type, quality of installation, and local climate. For example, copper flashing tends to last longer than galvanized steel. Large storms and extreme weather can also damage flashing, potentially requiring earlier replacement. To ensure its longevity, it is recommended to have your chimney and roof inspected annually. A professional can assess the flashing's condition and recommend any necessary repairs.
A roof replacement can take anywhere from one to 14 days. For most homes, a full replacement that includes tearing off old materials takes about one to two days, though the average project can last up to 12 days. The exact timeline depends on several factors, including the roof's size and complexity, the type of roofing material, the crew size, and weather conditions. Certain materials take longer to install; for example, metal roofs can take seven to 14 days because the material is more difficult to work with than asphalt shingles, wood, or tile. A re-roofing project, where new shingles are installed over old ones, can take half the time or less. It's also important to factor in the time needed to obtain necessary permits. A professional roofing contractor will typically complete the job faster than a DIY approach.
