"I found the right construction company! Before I retired I was in the construction business for 30+ years. The work this company did for me at my house is top notch. They were great in every respect. Expert at what they do, amazing attention to detail, clean up after themselves every day, and they went above and beyond in terms of taking care of and fixing things that weren?t necessarily in the estimate. After they finished the roof we had a small separate project dealing with repair to portions of the stucco that covers the house. They corrected areas that were pulling away from the house so it is now structurally sound and blended those areas to match the original stucco beautifully. Kind, respectful, timely, experienced, dependable. I could go on. Completely and thoroughly satisfied. Highly recommend."

They were patient with my kids and even answered back when my toddler Hi Uncle I am very satisfied and will highly recommend them in my REI group when someone asks about window replacement. If I could give more than 5 stars, I would!!"

Roofing questions, answered by experts

Removing snow from your roof can help prevent ice dams, but the best thing to do is address insulation issues in your attic. If you do decide to remove the snow manually, you should always use a roof rake rather than a shovel. You shouldn’t climb your snowy roof in any circumstance, and roof rake allows you to remove the snow from the ground or a ladder. For the best results, remove snow as soon as possible after it falls.

The level of underlayment’s water resistance will depend on the type of underlayment. The most popular underlayment, felt, is water-resistant, but it can’t withstand long direct exposure to rain or the elements. 

Synthetic underlayment is more waterproof, but asphalt is the only fully waterproof type of underlayment.

Homeowners insurance sometimes covers roof decking, but it depends on the cause of damage and whether the decking was properly installed. If the roof decking was damaged by a severe storm, then it will likely be covered. Insurance may also pay for roof decking work if building codes require it. However, insurance won’t cover damage caused by normal wear and tear or poor maintenance practices.

An improper DIY roof cleaning could cause leaks by damaging the roofing material. Things like using too much water pressure on the shingles or applying a harsh cleaning solution could cause damage. If you do enough damage, you could harm the ability of the shingles or other roof materials to keep water out of your home.

The roof pitch on a Cape Cod house is normally 8/12 or 10/12, meaning the roof rises 8 to 10 inches for every 12 inches of horizontal run. This is steeper than the now-standard 6/12 pitch, as Cape Cod homes were originally popular in northern states, where the steeper pitch helped snowfall slide readily off the roof.
