"We needed urgent service for a large opening in our roof left by another company. They came right away and were professional, knowledgeable, and honest. Saved us thousands of dollars in damage. Thank you Empire Roofing!"

"Paul of Tri-State roofing in Pleasantville PA provided us with outstanding service. We actually got to talk to him the first time we called, he came out the same day and gave us an estimate that was a fair price for a roof replacement. Work started with in a week and was completed in one day. His crew were very hard workers and very efficient. Roof replacement was Owens Corning lifetime roofing system with TruDefinition Duration shingles. They do roof the right way with no short cuts. Water and ice seal, starter shingles completely around the outer perimeter, synthetic felt and roof ridge vents with shingle caps. All new exhaust boxes, and pipe vent seals. Shingles have an excellent choice of color as well. A thorough clean-up was down after the roofing was completed and the old roofing materials were haul away with a dump trailer. If you are looking into getting a new roof look no further than Tri-State Roofing, they are the best hands down."
"I’m a mechanical engineer, and I chose Perfect Roof for my home roof replacement. My wife and I interviewed four other roofing companies before selecting Perfect Roof, and we had a great experience. Carlo from Perfect Roof provided a confident and pragmatic overview of the entire process including company history, safety, materials, people, processes, and warranty. As an engineer, I wanted to select the best materials and processes, and Perfect Roof uses a system of CertainTeed materials that are all designed to work together for an engineered solution. We verified the specified materials met quality standards, and were recognized by national specifications and tests for wind, tear, pull through, and granule adhesion. Using materials that meet such accepted standards, correlates with extended roof life when installed correctly. In addition to the quality of materials, the CertainTeed brand is a division of Saint Gobain which is well known in the engineering world for producing high quality materials used in high reliability products. When the actual materials arrived at the jobsite, everything was exactly as specified and designed to work together as a system. The crews arrived for work each day and were respectful of our property and privacy. Safe roof access was established, and the crew used ropes and harnesses to navigate the multiple roof pitches, dormers, on the house and external garage for removal and installation. The Perfect Roof team performed a thorough evaluation of our roof condition once the old roof was removed, and we were given the opportunity to also assess for damage. We observed slight damage that agreed with the Perfect Roof crew, and they proactively planned to repair the damaged areas. This amounted to a few sheets of underlayment that needed to be replaced, and there was no extra cost. After spending some time observing the shingle installation process, it was apparent that the crew performs like a high functioning team: well defined roles, helping each other, trust working together, and everyone contributing. It was positive experience working with Carlo, the crew, and the entire team from Perfect Roof."
"Robert Romea Roofing uses Owens Corning Shingles, his crew is experienced and does excellent work. Did the job in one day. They came when they said they would, cleaned up afterwards, and came back for minor finishing is a very timely fashion. Would recommend them anytime."
"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."
"Phil and his team were spot on to repair our leak and remove snow from our roof. Found the problem and going to recommend future roof services. Responded quickly and reasonable cost. Highly recommend True North for all roofing needs."
"Caleb was very knowledgeable on what my roof needed. Caleb recommended that the whole roof be replaced and I agreed was thinking of a metal roof just put over the original and didn’t realize the extra weight that was added to that so glad he talked me out of it."
Most manufacturers’ warranties do not cover wind damage to roof shingles, but some companies include a wind warranty rider in their warranty offer. You can purchase this rider to protect yourself, your wallet, and your roof from any damage that might occur from wind. Be sure to read all the fine print and understand any limitations of the warranty.
If you choose tile for your roof, take the time to hire a true tile professional. Look at trusted online review sites to find a top-rated roofing contractor. This helps you zero in on great contractors while avoiding ones who bait and switch you with fluctuating bids.
After you’ve narrowed down a few great candidates with reasonable bids, there are some important questions to ask roofers before you hire. Be sure they are licensed, bonded, and insured before signing a contract. Once you find a roofer who checks off all your boxes, you’re ready to get your project started.
A new roof may improve insulation and ventilation problems that can lead to ice dams, but it’s not a solution for preventing them. All roofs are susceptible to the conditions that cause ice dams, so it’s best to invest your money into insulation and gutter management solutions rather than a new roof if you don’t need a replacement yet.
Yes, moss can be dangerous for your roof if left in place to grow without treatment. The moss soaks up and holds moisture. Having a constantly damp roof could lead to problems with rot for the parts of the roof that consist of wood. Additionally, a patch of thick moss may draw insects and birds, which could damage the roof. Thick moss could block the roof’s drainage system. Water then may back up after a rainstorm and cause further damage that could eventually lead to roof repair expenses or the cost of roof replacement.
Yes, thatched roofs are legal in most areas in the U.S., but you should always check your local building codes to ensure there are no restrictions in your particular area before installing one. Even where they are legal, you’ll usually need to apply fireproofing to the roof to keep it up to code. Keep in mind that a new roof might not increase home value as much if you choose a thatched roof, as they aren’t common in the U.S. and might not be as desirable to many home buyers.
