"I?ve lived in this house for ten years and realized I?d never actually had the roof professionally inspected. I called Apple Roofing for a maintenance check, and I am so glad I did because they found a cracked flashing around my chimney that was just starting to seep. Instead of trying to upsell me on a whole new roof, they gave me an honest, affordable repair plan to stop the leak at its source. It?s refreshing to find a company in Central Nebraska that values integrity over a quick buck. They explained exactly why the freeze-thaw cycle was causing the issue and gave me tips on what to look for next winter. Truly a knowledgeable and trustworthy team!"

"I started my own roofing project and ran into some physical troubles and couldn't finish it on my own. Called J-Tech const and my open roof was covered that afternoon and two days later my roof was done. Fast, reasonably priced service. They had an excellent crew come in and they've obviously been together for awhile. They did great work and work as a super team. I am more then pleased with the job they did."

Roofing questions, answered by experts

Mansard roofs are still popular in Paris, where they originated, and throughout France. In the United States, you can find mansard roofs on some older buildings in Manhattan. The architecture also appears on some Victorian and Colonial-style homes. There are pockets of homes with mansard roofs in New York City and Los Angeles, where they were once more popular than they are today.

The purchase price of 3-tab shingles is less than that of other material varieties, such as architectural shingles. However, 3-tab shingles generally last far fewer years than even the least expensive architectural ones. Other roofing types, such as metal or clay, also cost more than 3-tab shingles. However, if you plan to stay in your home for many years, the long-term cost of any of these options can compete with 3-tabs because of their longevity.

A roof overlay will last an average of 15 years, compared to the 20 to 30 years or more that a full roof replacement for a shingle roof will last. An overlay’s lifespan may be shortened even further if there’s underlying damage to the existing roof or structural problems with the roof supports.

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.

Tar and gravel roofs last an average of 30 years, which is longer than the average lifespan of many other flat roofs. The gravel on top of the waterproof membrane helps protect the roof from UV damage and physical damage, so if you keep your roof drains clear and carry out annual roof inspections to catch issues early, you could see up to 40 years of useful life from your roof.
