"We had our roof completely replaced and we feel very fortunate to have met Joe from Buffalo’s Best Roofing to walk us through the work they would do for us. He helped us select a beautiful shingle to match our existing siding. From start to finish we couldn’t be happier. Thank you to the crew at Buffalo’s Best Roofing."

"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."

Paul Melnik's family fled the former Soviet Union in search of freedom, bringing with them something extraordinary: nearly 200 years of roofing and construction knowledge passed down through nine generations. What started as a trade in the old world became the foundation of one of Rochester's most trusted names in exterior construction.\n\nIn 2018, Paul took the reins and modernized the company, bringing tech-forward thinking to a craft built on tradition. Since then, Melnik and Sons has grown into one of the region's largest roofing companies, earning Tesla Solar Roof certification and raising industry standards with details like stainless steel nails and lifetime pipe boots.\n\nWe treat every home the way we'd want our own treated. That's the standard on every roof we build.

Roofing questions, answered by experts

For homeowners who plan to stay in their homes for a long time or never want to have to deal with replacing a roof again, rubber roof shingles are likely worth the added investment amount over asphalt shingle varieties. While the initial cost of installing a rubber shingle roof will be significantly higher, their long life spans can be worth it in the long term. Consider the curb appeal of a rubber roof, though, as other roofing materials, like metal, can look better and offer even greater value.

You can technically install a metal roof over asphalt shingles, but it isn’t a good idea. This is because you’re essentially creating a moisture barrier under the metal, which can easily—and often does—lead to significant mold damage. Removing an asphalt roof isn’t terribly expensive, and some roofing companies might cut you a serious labor and disposal discount if you add it to a new install.

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.

The most important thing to remember when laying shingles is to work from the bottom of the slope to the top. This leaves you with a top overlap that directs runoff from one row to the next until it reaches the eave for disposal. You should also make sure you follow the manufacturer's instructions and the local building code for nailing patterns and frequency so all of your hard work stays put through varying weather conditions.

Re-roofing is the process of placing a layer of shingles over top of existing shingles, rather than pulling out those shingles and replacing them. Compared to a full roof replacement, re-roofing typically costs less and requires less labor and time. It's not an option for everyone, though. You may need a full roof replacement if your roof already has more than one layer of shingles. A full replacement may also be necessary if your roof has extensive damage.
