"GT Roofing did a great job. Getting the bid was straight forward - no pressure, no scare tactics, and no bogus specials from a pushy salesman. The owner told me all about their products and services, inspected my roof and attic, measured everything, and answered all my questions. The next day I had a quote and time to decide. On the day of the job, the crew arrived early, protected my house and bushes, and went right to work. The owner was on sight and available. They removed the old shingles, repaired a few damaged areas of the roof, put down the under layers, and put on the new shingles. All in one day. And did a great job of clean up. Best of all, the roof looks great, and it came in right on budget. They are very professional and easy to work with. I would certainly recommend them to anyone."

"K&A Contracting and Carpentry did an amazing job putting a new roof on my house. The whole crew was professional, hardworking, and paid attention to every detail. They showed up when they said they would, kept everything clean, and finished the job in a timely manner. The roof looks great and the quality of work really shows. I highly recommend K&A Contracting and Carpentry to anyone looking for reliable and honest contractors."

Roofing questions, answered by experts

Yes, chimney flashing is an important element in the complex system that is your roof. Chimneys (and anything else that goes through your roof) provide a great opportunity for water damage. Good flashing prevents a lot of potential damage. 

The placement of snow guards depends on the individual roof, but typically snow guards are placed between 12 and 18 inches from the eaves, though they can be placed as close as six inches and as far as 24 inches from the eaves. A roofing professional can assess the roof and potential snow loads to determine the best placement.

The material and frequency of maintenance are the biggest factors for determining the longevity of your shingles, not the color. For instance, luxury asphalt shingles can last 30 years or even longer, while slate tiles have an impressive lifespan ranging from 75 to 100 years. That said, lighter-colored shingles can help reduce your energy costs in the summertime.

The most obvious and severe sign of a roof leak is the presence of wet spots on your ceilings, specifically on the top floor of your home. You can also identify a roof leak from your attic if you see sagging insulation or if you notice mold growth or water stains on the rafters or the underside of the roof deck. From the street, look for cracked or missing shingles, moss growth, and shingles that are curling upward, all of which can suggest a leak.

Yes, in many cases, homeowners insurance does cover roof damage caused by snow. For instance, if your roof collapses during a snowstorm or an ice dam results in a ceiling leak, your policy should cover repair costs. However, for a claim to be approved, the roof must have been well-maintained and in good condition before the snow-related damage occurred. The payout, whether full or partial, can also vary depending on the age of your roof and its overall condition prior to the snowfall. It is always best to review your specific homeowners insurance policy to understand the details of your coverage and any potential exclusions.
