Expect a shorter life span if the roofer didn't use top-grade material, didn&rsquo;t have cedar shake expertise, didn&rsquo;t create the proper ventilation, or didn&rsquo;t use the correct fasteners. Keeping up with maintenance will help it last longer. It&rsquo;s also a good idea to get roof inspections on a regular basis to help spot repairs before they become major issues.</p></div>

"After doing research and talking with the Roof Maxx dealer in our area, we decided to have our house and garage roofs treated with Roof Maxx. Financially, it made sense to do what we can to maintain the asphalt shingles on our roofs with Roof Maxx plant based oil treatment. Environmentally it made sense because shingles that last longer donâ t become more waste dumped into landfills. In addition, the roof inspection and repair of loose shingles, made us feel that our roof would be in excellent shape going forward. Scheduling appointments with the Roof Maxx dealer in our area was easy. Customer service was excellent. Emplyees took time to answer questions and explain the process. Everyone we talked to was professional and knowledgeable about the Roof Maxx product. All in all our experience with Roof Maxx was overwhelmingly positive."

Roofing questions, answered by experts

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.

As with any roofing material, there are benefits and drawbacks to consider before installing roll roofing.
