"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 contacted J Tech about a full roof replacement after I had been ignored by two competitor companies for almost a year. J Tech called me back immediately, scheduled an appointment, and had someone meet with me within a week of contacting them. They did an excellent job of explaining the process of putting on a new roof and the products they would be using. They also answered all of my questions and addressed any concerns I had. Once we signed our contract and paid our down payment, it was about an eight week wait for our new roof. Once they were able to start on my roof, they had the entire project done in a day and cleaned things up so well that the only indication that they had been at our house was the new roof. I plan on using J Tech for any future roofing needs I have and highly recommend them."

"Brandon and Greg are rockstars! They answered all my questions and explained everything from shingles and nails, to financing. Their crew was fast and did beautiful work. My house looks even more adorable now! They also replaced my old, broke down gutters last year. I highly recommend A2 for roofs and gutters!"

"Antonio's crew did a great job on our roof. They were able to complete the job quickly, even with some unexpected issues in the old sheeting and with pressure from incoming weather. Clean-up was good and they were quick to attend to some minor issues well after completion. AVL is top on our list!"

Roofing questions, answered by experts

Rubber shingles last for around 30 years, on average, and some can last for and include warranties for up to 50 years. Rubber roof shingles are more expensive than asphalt shingles, but they can last up to twice as long, meaning they provide more value in the long run. Just keep in mind that rubber roofs often require more maintenance than asphalt shingle roofs, including routine cleaning to avoid mold growth. Ask the roofer who installed your roof for an estimate for routine cleaning, if necessary.

The proper specifications for furring strips can vary, so you should always consult the roofing manufacturer's guidelines or your roofer. However, general recommendations are as follows:

  • Thickness: Furring strips are typically 1 to 1-1/2 inches thick, meaning standard 1-by or 2-by lumber works well. In areas with extreme winds, a thinner strip may be preferred to limit how much air can get under the roof and cause uplift. A thicker strip can add slightly more insulation but will also increase installation costs.

  • Spacing: The recommended spacing for furring strips is between 12 and 24 inches apart on center. Proper spacing is crucial for ensuring good airflow, adequate drainage, noise reduction, and better energy efficiency. The ideal spacing can depend on the roof's pitch and the specific type of metal roofing being installed.

Costs depend on material, labor, and additional features like underlayment or insulation.

Thatched roofs last for between 30 and 50 years in most cases, which is longer than most asphalt roofs. However, getting that life span from your thatched roof requires more maintenance than you’d need for most other materials, including fireproofing, brushing, cleaning, and rethatching as the material gets worn down. You’ll also need routine inspections to ensure you’re not at risk of leaks.

Some people prefer to use connectors consisting of galvanized metal to replace the birdsmouth cuts on the rafter board. Common names for these metal pieces include hurricane ties and variable-pitch connectors. Making birdsmouth cuts is more cost-effective than purchasing these connectors for each rafter. However, because making large birdsmouth cuts to accommodate extra-wide exterior walls can weaken the rafter, a connector may be the better option in some cases.
