"I couldn’t be happier with my experience with PQR Exteriors! From start to finish, the roof replacement process was smooth, professional, and stress-free. Their team showed up on time, worked efficiently, and paid close attention to every detail. They kept me informed throughout the project and made sure everything was done to the highest standard. The new roof looks fantastic and has already gotten compliments from neighbors. Cleanup was spotless—you’d never know they were here except for the beautiful new roof! I highly recommend PQR Exteriors to anyone needing reliable, top-quality roofing work."

"If you want a quality roof, professionally installed, at a reasonable price, then look no further! Carolina Flooring and Roofing (CFR) is a great company to work with. The owner, Dave, worked with us to ensure that we got the best price on the roof we wanted. We wanted to upgrade our damaged roof from asphalt shingle to metal standing seam roofing to avoid future wind issues that plagued us in the past (hence the new roof) and one that would stand up to the saltwater issues we have here on the coast. Dave helped us select the correct roof for our needs, one that should outlast both my wife and me. Dave professional yet easy-going attitude let us know that he thought of us as more than just clients. His personal touch and friendly demeanor made him a pleasure to work with. Dave navigated the insurance claim maze for us to maximize our settlement and to make the whole process easier for us. Dave demonstrated honesty and integrity every step of the way. I am not sure about you, but I think having an honest and dependable contractor (like CFR) is the most important thing to have in a roofing contractor. I am not going to lie; as with any job, there were issues. But this is where Dave and CFR shined! Dave was on top of correcting any issues well before I could even bring them to his attention. It felt great knowing that I had Dave and CFR providing a quality product with the desire to do things right! Do yourself a favor and call Dave at CFR today. You will not regret it!"
"My overall experience was outstanding. Luis came out on Sunday and gave me an estimate and started work 24 hours later. In 2 hours installed railings for my front porch stairs. Absolutely perfect. Recommend LMJ. Thank you Luis and your crews. Bob Foster"
A chimney liner is typically easier to install by pushing it down through the chimney with the help of a rope. Depending on your fireplace and the type of liner, installing it by pushing it up through the chimney could work, but operating from the top down is usually the best option.
You may become so frustrated with the look of moss on your roof that you contemplate whether to clean or replace your roof. Fortunately, you don’t have to go as far as replacing it. After cleaning the moss, you can use a chemical solution to keep it away. For further protection, trim branches that overhang the roof, as fallen seed pods and leaves on the roof allow moisture to collect, encouraging moss growth. Consider adding zinc-coated flashing to the roof, too. As rain washes across the zinc, it leaves zinc particles behind that inhibit moss growth.
It’s always a good idea to have a lawyer review any legally binding contract before signing, including roofing contracts. Most contracts have straightforward language that’s easy to understand, but getting advice from an attorney before signing could save you from being locked into a contract you don’t want to move forward with. Having a lawyer review your contract can also help protect you if your roofing professional defaults on their side of the agreement.
Always inform your insurance company when you get a new roof. A new roof may entitle you to lower rates or discounts, and if you need to make a claim, they’ll have up-to-date information on your roof. You’ll need to provide documentation—ask your insurance agent what you need to submit to prove you had your roof replaced.
While you technically can add a roof over shakes or shingles, it’s not a good idea. Roofing over existing roofing creates a moisture barrier underneath the new roof and since the trapped material is wood, you can expect a moisture problem. While you could get away with installing a new roof over asphalt or steel, wooden roofs should be removed, new underlayment installed, and the new roof installed over that. Also, the extra weight would add strain to your roof structure.
