"The owner, Forest Dennis, provided one of the highest levels of customer service I've ever had. He spent a lot of time providing me with a ton of advice, which I needed since this was my first time having a roof replaced. He came to the house and met with the insurance adjuster, which no other roofing company offered to do. His crew was here 14 hours a day for 3 days in order to get the replacement done ASAP. The quality of the work was outstanding, and the cleanup was very thorough. I highly recommend this company if you need any roof work done on your home."
"Kendra and Ethan did an amazing job of explaining our options on windows and financing options . They’re the best and I would give them a 5 score any day !"
"PowCo is a great company. Sam is honest, communicates clearly, and does what he says. He took great care of the house, deck, and landscaping around his work area. Did my roof in three days."
"Taylor was prompt in responding to a roofing quote. Friendly and easy to work with. He did an excellent job on our roof and finished a day earlier than expected."
"Had roofing repairs done. Fair price and good work. Answers Construction evaluated and discussed options to cut cost. Also had exterior house painted. Superb job was done. Also had tile work done in two bathrooms. Answers Construction reset toilet after tiling and actually did a better job setting the toilet than the plumbing company did. Tile work was very nice and my wife was very pleased. Happy wife, happy life. I wIll certainly employ Answers Construction for future jobs."
"Jimmy Brown Construction is one of the best contractors I have ever delt with. Their quality of workmanship and professionalism is above and beyond what I expected. They did all they said they would do and left the property in clean condition. For anyone who is considering siding for their home, I highly recommend this fair, down to earth and top-notch company!
"Mark and Jodi at Valley Roofing and Welding were excellent. Customer service was outstanding, really professional crew and great attention to detail."
"Very professional, kept me apprised when they were coming. He explained the scope of the project, gave a reasonable bid and did half of the work himself. I will hire him again when I need a roofer."
TPO roofing can last anywhere from 15 to 30 years, or an average of 22 years, but you can extend its life expectancy through proper roof maintenance. For the best chance at realizing the longest life span possible, keep tree branches trimmed so they’re not in contact with the roofing material. Inspect your roof regularly and repair any damage immediately.
Yes, in many cases, homeowners insurance does cover roof damage caused by snow. For instance, if your roof collapses during a snowstorm or an ice dam results in a ceiling leak, your policy should cover repair costs. However, for a claim to be approved, the roof must have been well-maintained and in good condition before the snow-related damage occurred. The payout, whether full or partial, can also vary depending on the age of your roof and its overall condition prior to the snowfall. It is always best to review your specific homeowners insurance policy to understand the details of your coverage and any potential exclusions.
Metal roofs do not inherently leak more than shingle roofs; when properly installed, they are generally less likely to leak. Asphalt shingle roofs are more susceptible to leaks due to factors like wind uplift, damage from extreme weather, moss growth, and ice dams. Over time, asphalt shingles also lose their protective grit, which reduces their waterproofing capabilities. In contrast, metal is a more resilient material that stands up better to heavy precipitation and high winds. However, metal roofs can develop leaks if they are poorly installed, have improperly sealed fasteners, or experience issues from thermal expansion. For this reason, professional installation and regular maintenance are crucial to ensure a metal roof's longevity and superior protection against leaks.
Asphalt shingles blister when air gets trapped between building materials, either within the layers of the shingle itself or in adhesives on the undersides of the shingles. As the roof heats up in direct sunlight, the trapped gas expands and creates a bubble in the roof. Eventually, the bubble can pop, leaving an exposed area of decking and underlayment.
Roofing felt is the most common type of roof underlayment, likely because it has been around the longest. It’s called roofing felt because it is often made of felt soaked in asphalt. Depending on the type of roofing a home has, roofing felt comes in different thicknesses.
If properly installed and maintained, roofing felt should last between 10 and 25 years.
