"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"
"I have used Hermilo and his team at Associates Roofing on two separate occasions and am extremely pleased. The first was a major roof repair requiring several days of work. The workmanship was far superior to that of the original installation. Upon completion of the work, Hermilo walked the entire roof to make sure there were no additional issues. I am now confident that my roof will withstand the heaviest wind and rain. Weeks later after completing the repairs, Hermilo call to make sure there were no leaks and that I was satisfied with his work. His attention to detail, responsiveness and customer follow-up is exceptional. I recommended Hermilo to my neighbors and he was hired by two of them. I will definitely call him again if the need arrises in the future, and I highly recommend Associates Roofing to anyone needing roof repairs. Jerry Hyde"

"We found â  Roof Magicâ  on Angi. Our insurance company requested us to clean our roof due to a dark, almost black, color in areas especially on the North side. I had never heard of this! When I spoke to the representative he explained that this a type of â  livingâ  growth that is prevalent in humid climates. He went on to explain how and what they clean it with, he even sent some before and after photos of work they had done. Roof Magic came out about a week laterâ ¦on time with the products and supplies needed. They took BEFORE photos. The team worked cheerfully, efficiently and quickly taking most of the day. The difference was AMAZING! I was glad to have the BEFORE photos to compare with their AFTER shots. It made the roof look new and gave a major face-lift to the house. I would highly recommend Roof Magic and the work they do. Knowing now the effort and time it takes I also believe the price was fair."
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.
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.
Gaps between tiles are necessary to help with weatherproofing, allow for thermal expansion, and increase wind resistance. In general, a small gap no larger than 3 millimeters wide will encourage proper drainage and limit cracking. Beyond that, tiles should overlap a minimum of 3 inches, except at the eaves where they should extend to the center of the gutter.
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.
A roof's lifespan can range from 15 to 200 years, with an average of 25 to 50 years, depending heavily on the material, quality of installation, maintenance, and local climate. Asphalt shingle roofs are common and typically last 15 to 30 years; three-tab shingles have a lifespan of about 20 years, while architectural shingles can last up to 30. More durable materials have longer lifespans: metal roofs last 30 to 100 years, clay and concrete can last 50 to 100 years, and slate roofs can last up to 200 years with proper care. Regular maintenance, such as cleaning gutters and replacing damaged shingles, is crucial for extending the life of any roof.
