"Excellent! The Hidden Cove Construction crew was awesome. They did a fantastic job in a really difficult situation. The roof they replaced was underneath a large outdoor deck and there was little room to work. They were up and down multiple ladders for two straight days, working in tight spaces, and finished the job ahead of schedule. I highly recommend them. They are very diligent, dependable, and meticulous. I would hire them again anytime."
"Fidelity Roofing called the same day, scheduled to inspect our roof within the week. (They could have come earlier in the week, but my schedule was the conflict.) He called and was able to come earlier in the day, noticed the issue, fixed it and was on his way. He even took a video of the issue and explained what his repair was.
Really appreciated the follow through and thoroughness."
"Philco Roofing did an excellent job replacing roof on my rental house. I needed it replaced asap and Phillip gave me an estimate and completed the job in one week. Very professional and did a great job on the roof and cleaning up after. Highly recommend this company."
"García?s roofing and sheet metal LLC did a great job on our new roof installation would highly recommend him to anyone in need of a roof super knowledgeable and his crew was super clean on the ground and our roof is looking good."
"I love my windows! The company was professional and did such a great job installing my 4 windows, I'm getting 7 more and new gutters thanks to Chris."
"I hired Fidelity Roofing to replace the roof and gutter system on my historic house. First, they had to remove the complicated leaking hidden gutter system, messy flat tar roofs, and shingled roofs. The new roof and gutter system look absolutely amazing. It is rare to find a company like Fidelity Roofing that has integrity, craftsmanship, and take real pride in their work. They are true roofing experts and I highly recommend them."
"Excellent Roofing job
Guardian exterior pros did an excellent job on my roof. They were professional, efficient, and the quality of the work was great. Everything was done on time and cleaned up well. Highly recommend!"
Chimney caps have a solid top but perforated sides so smoke can exit safely. If rain or snow falls downward, chimney caps can protect the chimney’s interior. Just note that if rain or snow blows in sideways, there’s a higher likelihood it will enter the chimney—but it's not often a cause for concern as long as you have a cap.
Ridge vents can last as long as your roof does. As long as your ridge vents were installed correctly by a qualified professional, they will need very little upkeep. Inspecting your ridge vents annually to ensure they aren’t cracked, clogged, or leaking will help prolong their lifespan.
The most common roof pitch is 4:12, which means a rise of 4 inches for every 12 inches of horizontal run. However, roof pitch varies widely based on roof design, climate, and even the roofing materials you plan to install. Your building type also plays a role, as flat roofs are common on commercial buildings and some modern homes.
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.
The material and frequency of maintenance are the biggest factors for determining the longevity of your shingles, not the color. For instance, luxury asphalt shingles can last 30 years or even longer, while slate tiles have an impressive lifespan ranging from 75 to 100 years. That said, lighter-colored shingles can help reduce your energy costs in the summertime.
