"Awesome company... the whole process was smooth and easy . There sales manager came out on sat Nov 7 paid them on Monday Nov 9 and another associate came out tues Nov 10 to measure and they put the new roof on Friday Nov 13. They came at 7 am Friday morning and were done by 3 pm and cleaned everything up and it looks great. I would recommend them. Professional and reliable."
"I had a 30 year old roof that required replacement. I had multiple estimates done and A&Q (Kareem) came to the house estimated the roof cost (not the lowest but definitely not the highest for high quality Corning shingles, underlayment, vents, boots, drip edges, etc.) and he and his crew came back within the week and were able to put a new roof on in 1 day. I have an average size ranch and they not only installed a beautiful new roof but also cleaned up everything so besides the beautiful roof you would not even known that they were here. Excellent work and ethics. Very professional and very knowledgeable people. If you need a roof, go with this guy."
"Austion was fantastic! He explained the entire process from start to finish was able to get my entire roof paid for by insurance! It was super painless! He even had an option for my really high deductible that definitely relieved my stress.
Highly recommend!"

A roof's ability to handle snow depends on its strength and the snow's weight, as wet snow is much heavier than dry, fluffy snow. While designs in snowy regions often allow for 35 to 50 pounds per square foot, a general guideline is that a typical roof can withstand about four feet of fresh snow, two feet of packed snow, or just one inch of ice. Factors like the roof's age, slope, and support structure also affect its capacity; newer, sloped roofs generally hold more weight than older, flat ones. Ice and ice dams add significant, dangerous weight. Because capacity varies, it is best to contact a professional roofing contractor or the original builder to determine the maximum snow load for your specific home.
The amount of hail damage that warrants a roof replacement depends on the size of the hail. In many cases, a roof replacement is needed if your roof gets hail that is 1 inch or larger in diameter. You may also need to replace a roof due to hail damage if you notice several dents in the shingles or there are seven to 10 hail impact marks within a 10x10 foot area on your roof.
DIY is not recommended, as slate requires specialized handling and proper underlayment installation for durability.
Unfortunately, there’s no definitive answer to this question, but the wind rating of your shingles will give you a good idea of what wind speeds can damage your roof. If you’re concerned about damage, inspect your roof following windy conditions to look for signs of wind damage to your shingles. When in doubt, consider hiring a professional who fixes roofs to carry out an expert inspection. Remember that hurricanes, tropical storms, and tornadoes are likely to cause the most damage, but even severe thunderstorms can bring winds that compromise your roofing system.
Manufacturers, insurance companies, and municipality regulations are phasing out three-tab shingles. Because of their short lifespan and lack of durability compared to other roofing material types, manufacturers are leaning toward better products, and cities and insurers are starting to require better building materials overall. However, 3-tab shingles are still for sale, and some roofing companies still install them.
