"Extremely satisfied with the exterior repairs Velasquez Roofing LLC completed on my home. They replaced my rotting fascia boards and repaired the foyer entrance using Hardie board, and the final result looks spectacular. The crew was professional, knowledgeable, and meticulous about cleaning up every day. They handled a tricky, tedious job with skill and were very transparent about the process, cost, and were extremely helpful with suggestions of material. The new siding in the front door area blends in perfectly with the surrounding brick. I highly recommend them for quality work!"
"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."
"Van Sterling, Consolidated Roofing Systems Personnel and Roofing Crew were professional, courteous, and provided a worry free installation. They prepared us, our house for this large project, then cleaned up every step of the way. My husband and I had a worry free project and new roof in 2 days. These guys are a step above any other group I've seen in many years. Mr. Sterling supervised the job personally and treated us with the most respect anyone could imagine. If you need new shingles, call Van @ Consolidated Roofing Systems."

"Responds immediately and does the job quickly. Louis is a true professional and really cares. He gets back to you quickly, gives you a reasonable quote, supervises the job, and is a fantastic communicator. Cannot recommend enough. I run an Airbnb and had a roof leak. He came on Sunday, the day I called and had it fixed early Monday morning. They did a fantastic job and now Iâ  m confident I will not have any leaks. He will be my go to person for all future jobs."
The green coloration that develops on copper roofs is called a “patina,” and it’s a result of mild oxidation on the surface. The oxidation process is not harmful to your roof. In fact, the surface corrosion acts as a protective layer and won’t spread to the core of your copper roof materials. The discoloration will progress much more quickly in damp or humid climates than it will in dry climates. If you don’t like the green color, you can seal your roof to preserve the shiny, rose-gold look.
Pea-sized hail can damage a roof if it experiences hailstorms often, as it slowly causes cracks and deterioration to your shingles. Usually, one hailstorm with pea-sized hail won’t damage your roof, but if you see other damage to your car, grill, and other property, it may be worthwhile to get in touch with your insurance company and have a local roofer come out for an inspection.
The best type of roof vent depends on the size, type, and construction of your roof as well as the environmental conditions in and around your home. In many cases, an active ventilation system that draws in fresh air and exhausts air out through the attic is the most effective. Active ventilation systems include roof ridge vents with baffles, turbine vents, and soffit vents that are used together with another type of vent.
Walking on an asbestos roof can pose a risk. Asbestos roofing materials can become brittle over time, increasing the chances of them breaking or releasing fibers when stepped on. Additionally, walking on an asbestos roof without proper precautions can cause further damage to the material. If possible, avoid touching an asbestos roof in any way and consult with a professional about removing and replacing the roof.
No, you should not close or cover your gable vents in the winter. While it might seem logical to block cold air, heating your home creates hot air that rises and can cause condensation in the attic. If the vents are covered, this moisture becomes trapped, creating an ideal environment for mold and mildew. Keeping the gable vents open ensures proper ventilation, which helps dry out the attic, maintain even temperatures, and prevent moisture-related damage.
