"The guys at Roeslers Roofing contacted me with a reasonable quote on the same day. They are excellent, beautiful roof and guttering. People are calling me about my roof."
"Definitely a roof expert capable of analyzing and fixing any problem. The crew cleaned all after completion. They left only peace of mind that my tile roof is secure ."
"I received a quote quickly, which was less than we anticipated. They began the work right away & the finished project looks great! Everyone at Roland's Roofing has been great to deal with, especially Melissa. Great communication, quick to respond to my questions, and always so friendly. I will absolutely reach back out to Roland's with any other future roofing needs & will be recommending them to neighbors and friends."
"Ruben was very nice and courteous as well as honest and reasonable price to repair my roof. Did a excellent job on the repair and if I ever need someone to work on my roof again I would definitely call Lobo Roofing and ask for Ruben."
"Rick and Alex did a phenomenal job repairing our roof and ensuring that we were updated on the progress throughout the project. Texas Exteriors is both timely and professional. Will definitely be reaching out with additional projects as our budget allows us to tackle more updates to our home. Thanks for everything!"
"Great. Trinity Roofing really helped me. She went up there with the adjuster to review the damage to the roof and explain to the adjuster that there was damage took pictures. I previously called another roofer and that roofer did not do anything for me the claim was declined Trinity Roofing really helped us If we every need a new roof. We will use Trinity Roofing again. I’m going to refer them to any friends and neighbors and family members. They are rated AAA with me."
"I?m so happy I made the right choice to use Roof Rescue! We had hail damage on our roof and called our insurance company, they approved our claim and sent us the money we were told was needed to perform the repairs. Then we called out 3 roofing companies to choose who to work with. The first company showed up late and was not very thorough, they sort of showed up, left and emailed us an estimate that was more than what our insurance was covering. The second company was also more than our insurance and only tried to get us to pay more without working with us- very salesy and high pressure. Roof Rescue came out and I spoke with Cesar. He was thorough, inspected our attic, roof and exterior, then told us about their insurance recovery plan. Cesar ended up working with our insurance company, got our roof replaced quickly and cleanly AND actually upgraded my roof compared to what my insurance was covering. All this for the exact cost that my insurance was willing to pay. Highly recommend!"
The common formula for measuring a roof is length x width equals square footage. Professional roofers measure the length and width of your roof, including dormers, and determine its pitch and rafter sizes. If a roof surface is a triangle, they’ll divide that square footage by two, then add up the square footage of each surface to get the total for the roof.
Spray foam roofs don’t stand up well to impact, so they won’t last as long as something like a tar and gravel roof and other flat roof materials in areas where extreme weather is common. Due to the reduced durability, you’ll also need more frequent maintenance and repairs for a spray foam roof, and those costs will add up over time. Spray foam roofs are relatively uncommon, so you may also struggle to hire a roofing contractor who can install one.
Roofers most often use nails to fasten roofing shingles and other roofing materials. Nails have more holding power than staples and offer better weather resistance and longevity. However, it is possible to use staples instead of nails when installing a roof. Staples are less expensive, but not as high-quality.
There are several pros and cons of flat roofs. One disadvantage of flat roofs is that you lose potential attic space because it's flat. Flat roofs tend to pool water and because they lack an angle, any leak in the roof—usually due to a bad seal—has the potential to let in a lot of water. They don’t work well in climates with snow. Flat roofs are also structurally weaker than sloped roofs.
While you don’t have to let roofers inside your home, it is proper etiquette to offer the use of your restrooms. And if it’s a hot day, it’s polite to invite the roofers into your house to cool off and have a chilled drink.
