"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."
"Rattler Roofing exceeded our expectations. Mike is a great communicator and kept in touch with us throughout the process of working with our insurance company for a damage claim. Rattler Roofing has exceptional customer service, did an amazing job with our new roof and did a clean up job second to none. We can't say enough about the integrity of Mike and his company and wouldn't hesitate to call on him again."
"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!"
To cap off a chimney flue, start by measuring its width, length, and diameter, if it’s circular. Purchase a cap that fits the flue, and decide whether you want a temporary or permanent model. Then, slide or insert the cap onto the flue and secure it with a screwdriver. Be sure to avoid over-tightening the screws to prevent chimney damage.
Unfortunately, there’s no definitive answer to this question, but the wind rating of your shingles will give you a good idea of what wind speeds can damage your roof. If you’re concerned about damage, inspect your roof following windy conditions to look for signs of wind damage to your shingles. When in doubt, consider hiring a professional who fixes roofs to carry out an expert inspection. Remember that hurricanes, tropical storms, and tornadoes are likely to cause the most damage, but even severe thunderstorms can bring winds that compromise your roofing system.
Furring strips (also called wood stripping) are not always necessary for a metal roof installation, but they are highly recommended and may be required by local building codes or the roofing manufacturer's specifications. There are several key reasons to use them:
Energy Efficiency: Furring strips, made of wood or metal, create an air gap between the metal panels and the roof deck. This acts as a thermal break, reducing heat transfer into your home and improving overall energy efficiency.
Moisture and Condensation Control: The air gap allows for better airflow, which helps prevent moisture buildup and condensation under the metal panels.
Structural Support: They provide a solid, even frame to which you can attach the metal roofing panels.
It is especially important to use furring strips when installing a metal roof over existing shingles. Without them, the roof surface can be uneven, and you will experience greater solar heat gain.
TPO roofing can last anywhere from 15 to 30 years, or an average of 22 years, but you can extend its life expectancy through proper roof maintenance. For the best chance at realizing the longest life span possible, keep tree branches trimmed so they’re not in contact with the roofing material. Inspect your roof regularly and repair any damage immediately.
While you can stay at home during a roof replacement, you probably won’t want to, as it’ll be very noisy. The area around your home will also be messy, as roofers will be discarding old roof material and storing their equipment on the ground.
