"I had a complete new roof installed by Planet Roof. This company was outstanding in every way. After they removed the existing shingles, they found more damage than expected, but Planet Roof took this in stride and picked up the additional materials needed to make the repairs. The end result was a beautiful new roof installed, same day. The roofers were skilled and their workmanship shows. The crew was very friendly. My metal shed had its roof ripped off by high winds and this crew saw that and put that roof back on for me as well. After they were all done, they cleaned up everything and after they left, there was no trace of them even being here at my home. If you need a new roof or repair, I would heartily recommend obtaining a quote from Planet Roof. I am very pleased with the work they did on my home."
"We recently had a new roof and new gutters installed by New Look, and they did a terrific job. During the sales phase, Mossimo and Armando walked me through all of my options in detail, helping educate me every step of the way. Markos and his crew did a great job under difficult circumstances -- my roof is very steep and has a number of dormers -- and cold weather. Jake was very professional and responsive throughout. Would definitely recommend."
"MHI exceeded expectations! Had a minor leak during strong winds, which indicated our original roof urgently required replacement. Recommended by a coworker, MHI proved exceptional. Transparent throughout, they provided ample visuals, expertly addressed queries, and detailed the roofing process, our roof's condition, available solutions, and financing options. Communication was seamless, accommodating calls or texts. They completed the roof and gazebo replacement in just one day. For comprehensive service, choose MHI. I wholeheartedly endorse them and am willing to share my positive experience with anyone interested."
"I worked with Sal Izzo on my roof project after having wind damage during the March storms. Sal was right out to inspect the damage and worked with me on getting my roof tarped and waterproof before additional damage could be done. The crew who came and replaced the roof were fast and experienced in their craft and completed the work in 1 day. When completed you could not tell they were even there other than the new roof that was installed. I would HIGHLY recommend working with Sal and Shell Restoration and plan on having them return to replace windows in my home."
"Owner kept us informed as to status of the project. Owner and crew are very pleasant and friendly to deal with. We always knew what was going on with the project. Prompt, reliable, Highly recommended. Roof looks great!!"
"PPromptly offered a thorough, accurate and reasonable estimate for the roof. Despite weather fluctuations and the holidays, they were out almost every day, going through the long process of stripping off the old slate on a 3 story house. Kept me informed of their progress, took care of tenants' concerns and did a fantastic job on the roof. Hope to use them for the next job. "
"The drop down selections do not cover the scope of the job that Murray and his crew led by Jose did for us. We started out with a roof replacement, where the old roofing materials were removed, damaged wood was discovered and we decided to have the whole roof re-sheeted before the new shingles were laid. Because the covid pandemic affected the available stock on building materials, we did have to make a last minute change to the color selection for the shingles. Murray made a second trip out to our home with samples to make sure we were able to see the actual sample in person, as he understood that this was an important decision not made lightly. We were most happy with the finished roof. We also had elected to have the old aluminum siding replaced, along with the soffit, fascia, gutters and downspouts. While there was a slight delay in being able to obtain these materials, also because of the pandemic, our job was scheduled for this week. The great crew had the old siding removed in no time, and were able to start in with applying the new siding by the early afternoon. The very next day, they came out and finished the entire project efficiently and beautifully, and made sure that all debris was cleaned up. They are very skilled at what they do! After 37 years, we now have what looks like a new home, and couldn't be more elated. After what we all dealt with in 2020, it is a great start to what will hopefully be a better year for everyone. Thank you to Murray, Jose, and the great crew of guys who made this dream a reality for us."
"Vinnie and his incredibly hard-working crew finished our giant roof in three days. They cleaned up after their work very well and were very professional."
"Brandon was so polite and so professional. His crew overall was very professional and polite very efficient and very reasonable. I?ve gotten a total of 14 estimates and he was the cheapest one. I like the way he detailed everything regarding the work over overall. I believe a person that speaks from start to finish even down to the style of the nails that they use and caulking and colors is very special and he?s a very special person because he was able to answer all of my questions even though I know I probably drove him insane lol he answered all of my phone calls And every time I climbed the roof to speak to him regarding what they were doing he literally stopped his work to speak to me to make me feel comfortable. Thank you Brandon for understanding the person I am and explaining to me every step of the way, you are a great person and I appreciate you I highly recommend this company they go above and beyond. Brandon, I still have the water cap your crew left please come pick up"
Your chimney needs a structurally sound chimney cap, protective lining, damper, chimney flashing, and brick and mortar to prevent water from goind down your chimney. A pro can help you identify where the issue is so that you can stop water from coming down the smoke shaft, through your damper, and into your home.
There are several signs that indicate you’ll need new underlayment. Clear signs include missing or damaged roofing and exposing the underlayment to the elements. Additionally, if you notice water damage in your home by the roof after a storm, it could indicate that your underlayment may need to be replaced. If your gutters aren’t draining properly, it could also lead to rotting or water damage to the underlayment.
Fall is generally considered the best time of year for roof repairs. The weather is temperate and typically drier, which makes for safer working conditions and fewer delays. The days are also still long enough to complete the work.
Spring is another good option and is a popular time for repairs to fix damage from winter storms. However, frequent rainfall can slow down progress. Spring may be a less busy season for roofers than fall.
Summer can also work for roof repairs, but extreme heat can make asphalt shingles too soft and difficult to work with.
Roofing felt is the most common type of roof underlayment, likely because it has been around the longest. It’s called roofing felt because it is often made of felt soaked in asphalt. Depending on the type of roofing a home has, roofing felt comes in different thicknesses.
If properly installed and maintained, roofing felt should last between 10 and 25 years.
In most cases, no, roofers won’t need to come inside. Some reasons roofers may need to come inside are to assess ventilation. inspect roof leaks, or check for any structural concerns.
