"kevin and American Master Roofing were friendly and responsive throughout our roof replacement. They explained everything thoroughly and showed up right on time the day of the install. My neighbors all commented on the fast and thorough job American Master Roofing did. They even cleaned up ours and the neighbors yard before they left for the day. I would recommend them to anyone needing roof repairs or replacement."
"I was trying to find a roofing company which can install quarry slates. Just one and only roofing company completed my new roof. Looks amazing. Nicely and professionally done. Highly Recommended"

"Very PLEASED with the completed job, the workers were here for l long day and finished roofs on a house and a shed also on the property. The Project Mgr. Jack J did an excellent job in explaining each and every detail involved in this project, Field Supervisor Juan Z stayed with the crew all day until they left @ 8pm. Sheetrock specialist Frank came the next day and cleaned up two light fixtures damaged from leaks in the roof. The room is considerably bright again. Overall i give this company the absolute best rating possible!

Roof vents are an essential part of a roof, as they promote energy efficiency by keeping warm, humid air at bay. The roofing material, especially asphalt shingles, will not last as long as it should (about half of its manufacture life) if the attic is not ventilated. Also, going without ventilation means having a warm attic that demands more from your air conditioning system (and your wallet, once the bills come). Ridge vents and roof vents also prevent a host of other icky moisture-related problems like rot, mold, and mildew.
In most cases, below 40 degrees Fahrenheit is too cold to replace a roof. The cold affects the shingles, making it more difficult to adhere them to your roof. It also becomes dangerous for contractors to get up on your roof in the cold weather, as there can be ice and slush causing surfaces to become slippery.
The most common slope range for roofs on houses in snowy areas is between 4/12 and 6/12, or 50%. A roof with a slope of less than 10%, or roughly a 2/12 pitch, won’t be effective at shedding snow. However, roofs that are too steep can allow large amounts of snow to build up and fall all at once, creating a hazard for those on the ground.
Properly maintained roof decking can last between 20 and 30 years on average, though it varies based on a few factors. Mainly, the quality of roof decking materials and environmental conditions have the most impact on longevity. You can extend its lifespan by regularly inspecting your roof and making repairs as necessary.
If you’re choosing between a roof overlay and a tear-off, opt for a tear-off and full roof replacement instead of a roof overlay if possible. The cost savings from an overlay can easily be eclipsed by repair costs, the effects of structural damage from the additional weight, and needing to replace your roof sooner than expected. A full replacement will last longer and is less likely to need damage repaired over time.
