"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.

"After extensive research in finding a roofing contractor to repair and replace our roof, we chose Perfect Roofing and Siding. The sales rep, Carlo, was very informative and explained all the steps involved with the project. Our biggest concern was the fact that part of our roof is a large flat roof over the front porch, which several other contractors were reluctant to deal with. Perfect Roofing had no issue dealing with the situation. We ultimately ended up going with their proposal because of the confidence Carlo projected and we felt assured that the job would be done correctly, professionally and with consideration for all the extensive landscaping around the house. We were in awe of the fact that they showed up so quickly, as promised, and the job was basically done the first day with a small crew to finish up detail work on the second day, keeping in mind we have a very large and complex roof layout. In the course of roof replacement, they discovered a large area of rotted underlayment, which they replaced as part of the agreement. Needless to say, that was a relief to have discovered since we had no idea it was an issue. They handled the job like the true professionals they are. We would recommend Perfect Roofing and Siding without hesitation."
"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."
"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."
"True North made the experience of putting on a new roof easy. Phil was the absolute best to work with. He explained everything that would happen in the process. The price was very fair, and the workers were polite and cleaned up the entire area when they finished. I love my new roof and would recommend True North Roofing to anyone who may be thinking of roof replacement."
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.

Roof raking can damage shingles if improperly done. Be sure to use a rake that’s designed specifically for removing snow from a roof, and don’t use excessive pressure. Light, consistent pressure to pull down the bulk of the snow is all that’s needed—if you clear right down to the shingles, you’re probably using too much force and risking roof damage.
Roofers can install roof vents. Updating, upgrading, or simply replacing your roof's existing vents is common when installing a new roof. If you're looking to upgrade your ventilation system with a powered version, a local HVAC professional can also help with the task. If adding roof vents to your home is necessary while installing an addition or during other renovation work, your contractor will handle or hire out the venting work.
A tarp can temporarily stop a roof leak, but how long the solution works heavily depends on the placement and size of the leak. While a tarp can be a temporary solution, it’s crucial to have a professional inspect and repair the leak as soon as possible to implement a permanent fix.
