"I had 3 layers of roofing on my house, and over the last 2 years I spent a ton of money on repairs. Finally I called Rapid Roofing and when they assessed the roof, they let me know that the reason I was having so many leaks was from the 3 layers of roofing and not having a proper roofing system. I decided to do a full roof replacement and it was the best decision I could have made because my roof looks great, my electric bill went down, and now I don?t need to keep repairing it! Awesome communication, great people and I got a great price! Bravo Rapid Roofing!"

"AAA Home Construction responded quickly to my request for roof repair job, visited my home and provided a very fair estimate within hours. Nick arrived on time for the job and made a thorough assessment of the damage within an hour. There was far more damage than anticipated. Unbeknownst to me, there was also has no insulation in the roof. I was given a very fair price to have all the rotted wood replaced and install insulation. Every roofing detail was covered and a new gutter provided. They cleaned up well and even spackled a few areas in the ceiling below (removal of decades old, rotted wood was brutal) affected by vibrations. The AAA Home Construction team demonstrated great integrity and quality workmanship. I've obtained estimates for a couple of other projects, too, and look forward to working with AAA Home Construction again!"

Roofing questions, answered by experts

Underlayment is required by building code, so any roof installed without it is technically against code. The underlayment acts as the second layer of defense against water, so installing a roof without underlayment means a much higher risk of roof leaks. You’ll have the best chance of avoiding roof leaks if you install drip edge flashing covered by underlayment, and then install your roofing material over that.

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.

The purchase price of 3-tab shingles is less than that of other material varieties, such as architectural shingles. However, 3-tab shingles generally last far fewer years than even the least expensive architectural ones. Other roofing types, such as metal or clay, also cost more than 3-tab shingles. However, if you plan to stay in your home for many years, the long-term cost of any of these options can compete with 3-tabs because of their longevity.

You’re going to need a permit for nearly every roof-raising project. This is a very important step, as the work you’re doing has serious safety considerations. Professionals are the ones to handle this type of work—including sourcing the permits—as they have the expertise required to perform the work safely. Insurance and warranty are usually voided if you do this work without a permit, and you may even be required to halt construction and tear it down as a penalty for working without a building permit.

Whether a metal or shingle roof is better for you depends on your preferences. Standing seam metal roofs require little to no maintenance, but if you install a screw-down metal roof where the fasteners are exposed, the gaskets on the fasteners will dry rot and need to be replaced. Generally, screw-down metal roofs need to be re-screwed every 15 to 20 years.

Metal roofs are energy-efficient and have extended warranties, while asphalt shingles are less durable than most. They tend to lose color and get damaged over time, and absorb heat from the sun.
