"Once I requested a quote, Nick respond immediately and come to my home at the scheduled time. He looked around and explained all the process involved in the replacement. He had bought with him all the material samples. He even gave me a approximate price when we met first time. I received the quote 2 days later ( as he had promised) and to my surprise it was lower than the approximate costs that he quoted me before. Nick quote beat the other 2 quotes I looked at and hired Nick for the job. The team arrived at the scheduled date and time and within 6Hrs the job was done. they cleaned all the debris around and left without any issues.. From start to finish, Nick and team did a great job.. The quality of material, labor and price is pretty good. I highly recommend Nick if you are thinking about replacing roof.."

"I personally liked the sales pitch. There was not one. Assessed the roof size, quoted a price, texted a flyer with materials to be used, I picked a shingle color, signed a contract on line and the deal was done. This company arrived on time, completed on a timely schedule and did a nice job, cleaned up, removed the dumpster and I paid. No drama. Price was excellent. Thanks, guys!"

"Sean and his crew replaced our roof yesterday. This entire process, from last November for the evaluation of the project, quoting and recommendation for Spring timing has been excellent. Sean is not only extremely knowledgeable but also is very friendly and has high expectations for his work. His crew is amazing, leaving our property spotless with an awesome new roof. We highly recommend Eaton Exteriors!"

Customers say: Quick response

"Don contacted me within a day of my initial inquiry and voice mail. He explained to me over the phone what he thought the problem was with my leaky roof and then gave me an estimate. He came the very next day and fixed my roof within a few hours. He explained everything he was doing, kept me updated throughout the project and provided me with a thorough run down of the work he did, the expected remaining life of my roof, and other general roof and shingle related information. His rates were very reasonable and he did not try to convince me that I needed an entire new roof - in fact, he assured me that I could get another 10 years out of it and thus was making the right decision with this repair."

Roofing FAQs, answered by experts

Yes, Energy Star roofs are one of the best types of roofs for cost efficiency. They can reduce your peak cooling demand by anywhere from 10% to 15%.

Roofing felt is the most common type of roof underlayment, likely because it has been around the longest. It’s called roofing felt because it is often made of felt soaked in asphalt. Depending on the type of roofing a home has, roofing felt comes in different thicknesses. 

If properly installed and maintained, roofing felt should last between 10 and 25 years. 

You shouldn’t put a new roof underlayment over an old one for a few reasons. Old felt must be removed in order to assess the condition of your roof decking, such as rotting wood or other structural issues. Also, if your roofer doesn't install a fresh layer of felt as is required by shingle manufacturers, your warranty may be voided. Finally, old underlayment removal is often included in the cost of roof repair or replacement, so there's no real benefit to leaving it on before installing a new layer.

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.

Gable vents are more common in older homes built before the 1970s. Homes built after this era use ridge vents or soffits, but you can sometimes find homes with both gable and ridge vents. Gable vents can have a purely aesthetic purpose, while ridge vents hide in the roof shingles so air can flow under the roof while keeping the attic dry.
