"They came out right away to do my estimate. Anthony was knowledgeable, efficient and friendly. He used a state of the art tool to get roof measurements, looked at pictures taken by my inspector, looked at the roof and in crawlspaces and gave me a good assessment based on all. I havenâ t hired them yet but I will soon, when Iâ m ready to do the project."

"Install crew was perfect. No dust, no mess. Complete cleanup, and a perfect airtight install. For years we have had winter management strategies. Closing off room on the north side... and running space heater in those rooms during use. After installation of the ProEdge windows these rooms are as warm as the rest of the house. AMAZING! Recent warm days prove the advantage of triple glazed low-E windows, too. Nice and cool inside. I searched for years for new windows that met MY specifications . As a career engineer I am happy to recommend ProEdge to anyone. Their attention to detail is superb."

Roofing FAQs, answered by experts

You can damage your shingles if you use the wrong type of paint on them. You should always use acrylic latex paint specifically formulated for shingles. Other types of paint may trap moisture, which can cause bigger problems like rot and mildew. Considering that roof replacement costs $9,100 on average, it’s definitely best to avoid making this mistake.

Besides using the right paint, remember that painting your shingles will require increased maintenance.

Walking on tiles can chip or shatter them, meaning any kind of DIY repair isn't possible. You need a trained professional to install the tiles and fix any problems. Get in touch with a top-rated tile roof repair contractor near you if your tile roof gets damaged.

Using an ice and water shield underlayment under a metal roof is a good way to protect the roof and your home from damage in colder climates that see a lot of winter weather. Traditional underlayment isn’t effective underneath a metal roof, though, so be sure to install one specifically made for metal roofs to get the best protection.

As with any roofing material, there are benefits and drawbacks to consider before installing roll roofing. On the plus side, roll roofing is budget-friendly, lightweight, and comparatively easy to install. It is also ideal for low-sloped roofs and lasts around 10 years. The cons of roll roofing, however, include its low durability compared to roofing materials, restricted color choices, and low ROI.

Pros:

  • Low-cost

  • Lightweight

  • Cut to size

  • Easy and quick installation 

  • Designed for low-sloped roofs

  • Waterproofs your roof for an average of 10 years

  • Easy to purchase and transport

Cons:

  • Less durable than asphalt shingles

  • More prone to cracks and tears

  • Short life span

  • Not as many color or style choices

  • Not as aesthetically pleasing as shingles, wood, or clay tiles

  • Not preferred for a higher home resale value

Torch down roofing is only one of the options available for your home. Depending on your type of roof, if it is a gable or hip roof, torch down roofing might not work for you due to the slope. Asphalt, metal, and clay shingles are just a few popular roofing options that may be more suitable.
