"Norm and his team were one of the most excellent roofing/business experience I have encountered in a long time. Work and the personable attitude made such a difference! He restored my faith in the roofing business in Albuquerque ! I will definitely call on him again, great guy!"
"Outstanding! Our roof was in need of repair and the stress and worrying about it quickly diminished as soon as Jacob and his crew showed up at our home. The professionalism, knowledge and great attitude of everyone there to work really put our mind at ease. Any question we had about the process was answered thoroughly and with patience. The crew was very punctual, organized and professional. Qualities that are hard to find now a day. All of our expectations on our roof repair were overwhelmingly exceeded. Our family highly recommends Vista Del Sol Construction for any construction project your home may need! Knowing that there are still honest & hardworking people out there makes being a home owner that much easier. We will call Vista Del Sol again with any future home projects."
"Saul and his crew did an excellent job putting a new roof on my home. They showed up on time and my roof was finished in just 1 1/2 days! They cleaned up after themselves and we're very courteous. I would hire this company again. They do much more than roofs and based on the work they did for me I will hire them for future home repairs."
"Excellent, Excellent, Excellent. I will absolutely use Alonso and crew again and have recommended them to several people. They showed up when they said they would, gave quick and accurate bids, communicated well and were very professional and easy to work with. I could not have gotten any luckier."
"I was texted the night I made my purchase and called the next day. They wanted to setup to start the following day, but I needed a week to get ready. They answered all my questions and showed up on time (7am) for both days it took to complete. Everyone was polite and did a good job. The roof debris was cleaned up nicely. Roof now is a gleaming white silicon layer. Now I'm waiting for a good storm to test out the new roof."
"I used Jose Marquez and his crew for many roofing jobs at Sunwest Centre in Roswell over ten years or so. Jose works with his crew and brings many years of experience to the job. We probably spent close to $500,000 with Jose over several years. I recommend him highly. Ed McClelland"

Roof underlayment usually lasts as long as the roofing material that covers it, as it’s not directly exposed to the elements. In most cases, roofing companies will replace the underlayment each time they install a new roof. In some cases, particularly with slate, clay, or certain metal roofs that can last 50 to 100 years, your underlayment may require replacement within that timeframe, especially if you start to notice roof leaks.
Generally, the term “rolled roofing” refers to MSR (mineral surface roll) roofing. This type of roofing is similar to asphalt shingles but comes in a roll that’s unraveled and installed over your roof deck. There are many types of rolled roofing, including TPO, EPDM, and modified bitumen roofing (aka torch down roofing).
You can install solar panels on a flat or pitched roof, but keep in mind that they will need to rest at a 30- to 50-degree tilt for optimal sun absorption. It costs more to install solar panels on a flat roof because you will need to install a framing system and likely hire a structural engineer. If your roof has a pitch of more than 40 degrees, it may not be a good candidate for solar panels.
Tile roofing is durable, fire-resistant, and energy-efficient. It also adds aesthetic appeal and, with proper maintenance, can last 50-100 years.
You may become so frustrated with the look of moss on your roof that you contemplate whether to clean or replace your roof. Fortunately, you don’t have to go as far as replacing it. After cleaning the moss, you can use a chemical solution to keep it away. For further protection, trim branches that overhang the roof, as fallen seed pods and leaves on the roof allow moisture to collect, encouraging moss growth. Consider adding zinc-coated flashing to the roof, too. As rain washes across the zinc, it leaves zinc particles behind that inhibit moss growth.
