"I used Lane Roofing to repair my flat roof and to replace and install roof shingles. Shawn came out to inspect my project and to give me an estimate was phenomenal. He knew exactly what I needed done for my repair. Thank you Shawn for your professionalism and expertise. Nicely done! 😊"

"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!!!!!"

Roofing questions, answered by experts

You should plan on waiting as long as it takes for the roof deck to dry out completely if it gets wet. In most cases, this will take about 24 hours, but it could take longer if you have shading on your roof or cloudy weather after the rainfall that prevents the sun from drying the material.

It’s possible to walk on a clay tile roof, but you run the risk of breaking or cracking the tiles if you’re not careful, so it’s best not to walk on it if you can avoid it. If you or a contractor needs roof access, be sure to distribute your weight evenly and step on the portions of tile that are also supported underneath, which depends on your tile design. Walking on any roofing material is inherently dangerous, so wear rubber-soled shoes and use safety equipment if you need to access your roof.

Gaps between tiles are necessary to help with weatherproofing, allow for thermal expansion, and increase wind resistance. In general, a small gap no larger than 3 millimeters wide will encourage proper drainage and limit cracking. Beyond that, tiles should overlap a minimum of 3 inches, except at the eaves where they should extend to the center of the gutter.

Mansard roofs provide more attic space or living space on the interior than many other styles, and they offer a classic appearance and old-world charm to any home. They also often have multiple windows on the lower hip, providing ample natural light and ventilation. 

On the other hand, they’re more expensive to install and replace due to their complexity and rarity, and the low slope of the upper hip means that heavy snowfall can be an issue. Additionally, they’re more prone to leaking than many other roof styles.

Flat roofs are cost-effective, offer usable space, and are easy to maintain. Foam and single-ply materials provide excellent insulation and durability.
