"Our house was re-roofed in July 2016 by George J Keller & Sons. We had estimates from 7 roofing companies and felt most comfortable with Keller. We felt Keller was the most honest because they didn't try to low ball the work. Our roof had been leaking on and off so my husband walked the roof and knew that we had some warped and/or soft sheathing. The other companies that came out told us only 3 to 4 sheaths would require replacement but we knew there were many more. We didn't want to select a roofer who wasn't honest from the beginning, Our sales person was Mike Koty and we liked him from the beginning. He went into the crawl space to check the interior condition of the roof which was something the majority of the other roofers didn't do. He also walked the roof. We had tons of questions and he answered each one fully and completely. The work took almost 2 days because there was so much sheathing to replace and, yes, they did show (without us asking) the rotten/warped sheaths. The workers were all professional and quiet and there was no debris left after the job was completed. The roof looks great and there are no more leaks. Just an excellent job from start to finis ...in fact, my neighbor was so impressed, he just had Keller reroof his house."

Roofing questions, answered by experts

Whether replacing the entire roof or just installing roof shingle replacements in small areas, always pull up the old roof shingles. While you can technically put new roof shingles (but not other roof materials) over old shingles, this can add weight strain to the roof and prevent the new shingles from securing properly to the roof.

The number of snow guards you’ll need on your roof depends on factors like the type of roof you have, its slope, the orientation of your home, and the snow load in your area. A local roofing professional or the snow guard manufacturer can help you determine the ideal amount.

Most roof leaks occur where shingles meet or where there are sealants or seams in the materials. This is common around skylights and at any point there is a break in the roof such as corners and edges. Roofing materials are incredibly strong and resistant when overlapping, but any change in that can cause gaps where water can enter.

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.

Manufacturers, insurance companies, and municipality regulations are phasing out three-tab shingles. Because of their short lifespan and lack of durability compared to other roofing material types, manufacturers are leaning toward better products, and cities and insurers are starting to require better building materials overall. However, 3-tab shingles are still for sale, and some roofing companies still install them.
