"Brent Collier was my connection with Buckeye State Roofing. He was excellent to work with and helped me submit an insurance claim which paid for a good part of the roof repairs. Brent was very professional in getting me a quote, helping to manage the insurance claim, scheduling the work and getting it done in a timely fashion. All work was done very well. The clean up after the job was excellent. If I ever need roofing work again, I will not hesitate to contact Brent. I was very satisfied with this re-roofing experience."

"We couldn’t be happier with the job Matt and his team with MAP Construction did on our roof! From start to finish, the team was professional and incredibly detail-oriented. They took the time to answer all our questions and they went above and beyond to ensure the job was done right. The roof looks amazing. I highly recommend MAP Construction to anyone needing roof work!”"

"We had Home Exteriors put on a new roof and side our home. Garry was great during the estimate process, explaining the work to be done and explaining the cost. Both siding and roofing projects went smoothly, and we are very happy with the work - professional and of high quality. When it came time to pay, there were no surprises. Overall a great experience."

"Found George Davis from Home Advisor, have worked with him and his team on several minor repairs over the last several years and a full roofing replacement about a year ago. From the start, George has been very prompt and courteous. He took the time to walk my wife and myself (first time home buyers) through the issues and options, with photos and clear explanations when needed. Never felt pressured to decide one way or another, and each time he completed the work promptly; never needed to call twice about an issue. New roof looks great, have had zero issues in over a year with it now. Reasonably priced and worth every penny. Very happy with the service and would highly recommend George and his team; we will continue to do so for any future needs."

Roofing questions, answered by experts

No, you should not close or cover your gable vents in the winter. While it might seem logical to block cold air, heating your home creates hot air that rises and can cause condensation in the attic. If the vents are covered, this moisture becomes trapped, creating an ideal environment for mold and mildew. Keeping the gable vents open ensures proper ventilation, which helps dry out the attic, maintain even temperatures, and prevent moisture-related damage.

Fall is widely considered the best time of year to replace a roof. The moderate temperatures are ideal for roofing crews to work and for new shingles to seal properly. Additionally, autumn weather is often drier, reducing the risk of weather-related delays compared to the rainier spring season.

While spring is also a viable option, the higher chance of rainfall can slow down the project. The main drawback to a fall installation is that it's the peak season for roofers, which can lead to higher prices and scheduling challenges.

To potentially save money, you could consider scheduling your roof replacement during the summer or winter off-seasons. However, both seasons have significant disadvantages. Extreme summer heat can make shingles too soft to handle, while winter's cold, snow, and ice can create dangerous working conditions and prevent shingles from sealing correctly, as they typically require temperatures above 40-45°F.

Building code allows 24-inch on-center spacing for roof trusses. However, you can install them on 12- or 16-inch centers to handle large loads or other exceptional circumstances. In cases such as covering a wide span or supporting alternative roofing materials, where a structural engineer needs to evaluate or create a design for your trusses, the plans will indicate the spacing. 

A roof replacement can take anywhere from one to 14 days. For most homes, a full replacement that includes tearing off old materials takes about one to two days, though the average project can last up to 12 days. The exact timeline depends on several factors, including the roof's size and complexity, the type of roofing material, the crew size, and weather conditions. Certain materials take longer to install; for example, metal roofs can take seven to 14 days because the material is more difficult to work with than asphalt shingles, wood, or tile. A re-roofing project, where new shingles are installed over old ones, can take half the time or less. It's also important to factor in the time needed to obtain necessary permits. A professional roofing contractor will typically complete the job faster than a DIY approach.

The four types of roof sheathing are plywood, oriented strand board (OSB), planks, and tone-and-groove boards. The overwhelming majority of homes use the first two (especially OSB) and the other two are not often seen outside of special use cases. Methods of sheathing include solid sheathing, open sheathing where there are gaps, and plank sheathing. Most roofs are solid sheathing.
