"Florida room roof had to be replaced, a small job. The crew that came out to replace it did the entire replacement (turned out to be 2 roofs one on top of the other) in about 3 hours. They cleaned up everything including doing a magnetic sweep of the areas wheee they had been working. Iâ m very pleased with the result."

"Having been "burned" by a prior roofing contractor I was skeptical about finding the right contractor to do my new roof. Listen up people...you want a good contractor don't use this company...You want an EXCEPTIONAL contractor call American Construction. Everything and MORE was done as promised and completed in ONE DAY!!! Greg Dobkin,OM, Joe Gura, PM and Chris the owner even made periodic visits throughout the day to ensure the roof was being done correctly and to my satisfaction. No shortcuts or addon cost! I can guarantee you will NOT be disappointed!!!!!"

"Graham, the owner of TruNorth Home Solutions Inc, could not have been more responsive or patient to my concerns. I have not had the best luck with contractors in the past, but Graham and Tru North wiped away all doubt and apprehension I had. He is a true professional, kind and decent and I couldn't have chosen a better company. The roofers were excellent, hard working and the roof looks great, clean up was done very well, have found NO nails or scraps of any material left behind. I highly recommend this company, you will not be sorry."

Roofing questions, answered by experts

You should hire a roofing professional to install a metal roof, as it’s an essential part of your home and a difficult installation. Your roof provides the most protection for your home among all of the building materials, and any mistakes made during the installation process can quickly lead to roof leaks, water damage, and significant repair costs. A roofing professional will ensure your new roof is installed properly and according to building code to minimize that risk, and they will usually back the installation and materials with a roof warranty for added peace of mind.

A roof replacement can take anywhere from one to 14 days. For most homes, a full replacement that includes tearing off old materials takes about one to two days, though the average project can last up to 12 days. The exact timeline depends on several factors, including the roof's size and complexity, the type of roofing material, the crew size, and weather conditions. Certain materials take longer to install; for example, metal roofs can take seven to 14 days because the material is more difficult to work with than asphalt shingles, wood, or tile. A re-roofing project, where new shingles are installed over old ones, can take half the time or less. It's also important to factor in the time needed to obtain necessary permits. A professional roofing contractor will typically complete the job faster than a DIY approach.

Yes, removing a chimney is a difficult and major undertaking. Chimneys often provide structural support to a home, so if it's a load-bearing structure, you'll need to take extra precautions to maintain your home's integrity. A project of this complexity typically requires a structural engineer, a masonry contractor, and a demolition crew. The removal process may involve taking the chimney out brick by brick from inside the walls. The cost for chimney removal can range from $2,000 to $10,000, depending on the job's complexity. Due to the difficulty and cost, some homeowners opt to remove the fireplace and seal the chimney at the top and bottom, sometimes also removing the visible exterior portion at the roofline.

Furring strips (also called wood stripping) are not always necessary for a metal roof installation, but they are highly recommended and may be required by local building codes or the roofing manufacturer's specifications. There are several key reasons to use them:

  • Energy Efficiency: Furring strips, made of wood or metal, create an air gap between the metal panels and the roof deck. This acts as a thermal break, reducing heat transfer into your home and improving overall energy efficiency.

  • Moisture and Condensation Control: The air gap allows for better airflow, which helps prevent moisture buildup and condensation under the metal panels.

  • Structural Support: They provide a solid, even frame to which you can attach the metal roofing panels.

It is especially important to use furring strips when installing a metal roof over existing shingles. Without them, the roof surface can be uneven, and you will experience greater solar heat gain.

If you’re choosing between a roof overlay and a tear-off, opt for a tear-off and full roof replacement instead of a roof overlay if possible. The cost savings from an overlay can easily be eclipsed by repair costs, the effects of structural damage from the additional weight, and needing to replace your roof sooner than expected. A full replacement will last longer and is less likely to need damage repaired over time.
