"So far, my experience is with Curt Dalton, the representative. It has been excellent. I feel we have met a new friend. We know about him and his family, and he knows about ours. We wanted an assessment of our roof, only. But Curt showed us how we could fit it into our fixed budget. We enjoyed his visit so much, that he knows that he can stop by any time he is in Gold Hill for a cup of coffee and a visit. I hope he does well."
"I called them since I needed to have a plum tree trimmed back. The tree was bent over from the winter snow and was holding my motorcycle hostage. When I called it was just for a quote on how much the work would cost. They were in the neighborhood and stopped by. When they did they rescued the motorcycle while here talking about the quote. I was very impressed with the immediate service and I have already asked them to come back to do some more tree work."
"Showed up very promptly both times they came. Provided great customer service. Finished the job quickly and efficiently. They called me the next morning after a rain to see if there were any leaks in the roof. No leaks. Good job!"
"Their roofing expert and a helper worked this in during some very cold winter weather, and had the entire job done in about a week. They obviously knew their craft. Rocket threw in a modest winter discount to get the job. We were impressed from the beginning with their grasp of the problem and suggestions for correction, and are happy with the results. We will gladly hire Rocket for additional fix-ups. "
"I needed roofing repair not pressure washing and this company did not do that job. They were referred to me in error. The gentleman that I spoke to was very nice and gave me ideas of where I should go from there."

"I am very satisfied with the windows in my home. The two window installers Travis and Heath were amazing. They installed all of my windows in 6 hours. I cannot say enough about these two. Not only their hard work but both Travis and Heath were so pleasant and professional. They are a real asset to this company. I am very happy with this entire project. -Pat."
Shingle roofing can last anywhere from 15 to 50 years, depending on the type and quality of shingle, your local climate, and how well you maintain your roof. If you live in an area that sees extreme weather, like strong winds, hail storms, or hurricanes, the average life span of a shingle roof will often be on the shorter end, especially if you choose a more affordable roof shingle that isn’t designed to persist through extreme weather.
Roof underlayment usually lasts as long as the roofing material that covers it, as it’s not directly exposed to the elements. In most cases, roofing companies will replace the underlayment each time they install a new roof. In some cases, particularly with slate, clay, or certain metal roofs that can last 50 to 100 years, your underlayment may require replacement within that timeframe, especially if you start to notice roof leaks.
Rain shouldn’t come in through your ridge vents unless your vents are damaged or the rain is accompanied by very high winds. Most ridge vents use flashing or baffling to keep out rain, snow, and debris. If your ridge vent isn’t baffled, rain is more likely to enter your attic, so ridge vents with baffles are a better choice in areas with regular rainfall.
More and more insurance companies are writing torch down applications out of their liability insurance for contractors. If torch down is covered, they generally require a worker to stay on site for two hours after the last flame is extinguished.
For this reason, cold application modified bitumen—also known as “peel and stick”—is becoming more popular, and torch down is decreasing in popularity. Modified bitumen is taking its place, as it uses both hot and cold applications.
The cost to replace a roof typically ranges from $8,700 to $22,000, with a national average of around $9,200. The total cost depends on the size of your roof and whether you need a full replacement or can simply place new shingles over the old ones. A full replacement, which is necessary if the roof is several decades old or has multiple layers, is more expensive. This process involves tearing off the old roofing materials, inspecting and repairing the underlying structure, and then installing the new roof.
