"We had a great experience with Buffalos Best roofing company from start to finish. They were professional, showed up on time, and completed the job exactly as promised. The crew worked efficiently, kept the area clean, and the roof looks excellent. Communication was clear throughout the entire process. I would definitely recommend them to anyone needing roofing work."

"Buffalo's Best Roofing replaced my roof (full tearoff + cedar plank) in early 2020. It was roughly 5 1/2 months from signoff to actual roof replacement. Unfortunately, I did have a few problems during the roof replacement process and a portion of roofing that was missed completely, but at the end of the day, Roy made things right. My only suggestions are that the a thorough post-install inspection should be conducted with the homeowner in order to get a signoff on project completion and to make sure you fully tarp an open roof if there's rain/snow in the forecast. Despite everything, I would use them again."

"The Team from N8S Exterior Solutions LLC was quick and did an excellent job. You have to appreciate any team that is organized, friendly and as thorough as N8S. They kept in contact and up on their ETA and progress and made you as a consumer feel as they valued your business. I would definitely use them again for snow removal and other project on the property after reading about what else they offer. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them."

"Sabino was great to work with. He was professional and thorough when initially inspecting roof. He completed a major job with tear off of layers of asphalt and cedar shingles. He installed the new roof with quality products. Most importantly he worked well with us in a honest manner when issues arose to rebuild a chimney and replace beams on a rotting porch. His prices were very reasonable. He did a solid job cleaning up the area when finished. It is never an easy experience to have an old roof torn off and replaced, but Sabino and his workers made the experience positive."

Roofing questions, answered by experts

Roofers don’t typically replace vent pipes themselves, but they do handle the flashing and seals around vent pipes when working on a roof. During a roof replacement or repair, roofers inspect the vent pipe flashing for damage, replace deteriorated seals, and ensure the pipe is properly integrated into the roofing system to prevent leaks. If the vent pipe itself is cracked or damaged, a plumber is usually required to replace it, while the roofer ensures the roofing components around the pipe remain watertight.

The lifespan of a torch down roof depends on the number of layers installed. A single-ply system typically lasts between 10 and 15 years, while a multi-layer system with two or three layers can last from 15 to 25 years. Although a multi-layer option may be more expensive upfront, it provides a longer service life. Warranties often reflect this, with about 12 years for a one-ply system and 15 years for a two-ply system. For context, this lifespan is shorter than other common roofing materials like wood or asphalt shingles, which typically last 20 to 30 years, with high-quality versions lasting up to 50 years.

If your roof has storm damage, there will be some telltale signs. These include missing, loose, or damaged shingles. You may notice cracks or dents on the metal parts of your roof, like flashing, gutters, or metal panels. Water leaks are another big indicator. So are visible signs of impact. Rather than climb up on your roof to check, hire a professional to inspect the area  safely.

Copper roof strips offer better coverage and more damage protection than zinc roof strips. Although both deter moss and algae growth, copper also offers UV protection. Zinc strips require more strips than copper to cover the roof’s surface area, which means more holes in your roof. Copper strips are also more flexible and last longer than zinc strips.

Tipping your roofer or their crew is not customary or expected, but it is always appreciated. It is entirely up to you whether you want to give them extra money for their work. If you feel they have done an exceptional job, a tip can be a nice gesture. As an alternative way to show appreciation, you can provide coffee, breakfast, drinks, or grab-and-go snacks like cookies or doughnuts.
