"Scott Roofing did a superlative job with our “mandated” roof repair. Our Homeowners’ Insurance Company created considerable stress with their ultimatum for full replacement of our roof by a date that is problematic in our region. Despite the looming date and two late winter storms, they handled our project with ease. The team was both polite and respectful. They worked tirelessly to dusk most days and took great care of our exposed rooftop those windy and rainy nights. And when they left each evening, their equipment was always tightly stored away and the yard swept of roof debris. We so appreciated their level of professionalism. Without hesitation we say, Scott Roofing is the best!"
"They are experienced craftsman that can successfully complete the most difficult roofing challenge. They also are competent roofing repair technicians if replacement is unnecessary. Another small point, they leave the job cleaner than when they began."
"It was great! The work was done in a timely manner, and even with snow on the ground they did an incredible job getting the mess of roof removal cleaned up. The roof looks great and they are right now bidding 2 more jobs for me. I would highly recommend."

More and more insurance companies are writing torch down applications out of their liability insurance for contractors. If torch down is covered, they generally require a worker to stay on site for two hours after the last flame is extinguished.
For this reason, cold application modified bitumen—also known as “peel and stick”—is becoming more popular, and torch down is decreasing in popularity. Modified bitumen is taking its place, as it uses both hot and cold applications.
If the bay window extends beyond your existing roofline, you must add a roof or a small “skirt” to divert storm water and prevent water damage. The window roof can match your existing house roof, or be finished with copper or other decorative materials. Most bay windows have a roof with complete flashing regardless of their placement to prevent leaks into the home.
Asking questions before hiring a roofer ensures you receive the best quality for your investment upfront and in the long term. Roofers with minimal experience, unfamiliar with local building codes, or minimal access to great materials can lead to both structural and financial problems down the line. You should also be able to easily communicate and collaborate with your roofer during extensive projects.
Pea-sized hail can damage a roof if it experiences hailstorms often, as it slowly causes cracks and deterioration to your shingles. Usually, one hailstorm with pea-sized hail won’t damage your roof, but if you see other damage to your car, grill, and other property, it may be worthwhile to get in touch with your insurance company and have a local roofer come out for an inspection.
The most common slope range for roofs on houses in snowy areas is between 4/12 and 6/12, or 50%. A roof with a slope of less than 10%, or roughly a 2/12 pitch, won’t be effective at shedding snow. However, roofs that are too steep can allow large amounts of snow to build up and fall all at once, creating a hazard for those on the ground.
