"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."
"That they came early in the morning after 9 and got to fixing my roof leak. They sure knew what needed to be done without questioning. Thatâ s a quality experience I can say especially for the price they offer to get the job done."
"Mike replaced my roof a few years ago and it was Amazing experience.
He took care of everything turn key! From meeting the adjuster, to making sure the job was finished.
I highly recommend using Mike for your roofing needs"
"We originally hired aCFR to replace the flooring in our den. David and his crew did such a fantastic job we then hired them to replace our roof. They were very responsive and professional and the roof looks great. They fixed all the problems that Maven hadn’t been able to fix in the past. I couldn’t recommend Savid and Carolina Flooring and Roofing any higher. Definitely 5 out of 5 stars."
"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"
The warranty for algae-resistant shingles varies by manufacturer, but the industry standard is 25 years for overall shingle durability and lifespan and between 10 and 15 years for algae resistance. Some products come with longer warranties for discoloration of up to 30 years. Check warranty coverage for the shingle and algae protection before deciding on a roofing product.
Sometimes. Professionals may be able to remove the old roof and re-attach it when completed, depending on your blueprints. That can help you save money. But this method is not without its risks. Larger roofs may crack during the transportation process. And if the roof is old or has problems, it may be better to replace it entirely. Keeping the old roof isn’t always possible if you are making significant alterations to the roofline.
Whether you should choose a flat roof or a sloped roof depends on your particular situation. Flat roofs tend to be less expensive to install. However, sloped roofs have longer lifespans and stand up better to heavy snow and other inclement weather.
Keep in mind that even a flat roof needs to have a slight slope, usually around 1/2 inch for every foot. If it is completely flat, water will pool and cause damage, either from weight or leakage or rot.
If your roof has a vapor barrier, you will need approximately one square foot of roof vent for every 300 square feet of ceiling space. If there is no vapor barrier, the roof should have one square foot of roof vent for every 150 square feet of ceiling space. If you are not comfortable making this determination, a local roofing professional can help.
Framing a roof can take from several days to a week or more, depending on the size and complexity of the roof, the number of people working on the framing, weather conditions, and more. Roof framing is often the final step of framing a house, although in some cases, the roof may be framed before the interior of the home in order to offer more protection from the elements.
