"I’m so proud of my beautiful roof. The guys showed up on time and ready to go to work. They did such a wonderful job. I would definitely hire JWF Roofing and Remodeling again."
"We had a great experience with Omega Roofing. Steven and everyone of his crew members gave us service better than we ever expected. We had a difficult repair on the roof and whenever there was a choice of procedures, Steven, always gave us the best one for our budget. I will always use Omega for all my roofing needs."
"He comes and gives you a timeline for work. He helped and gave me a name and brand of roof shingle material that I could use when I hired another contractor to replace it. He also gave me recommendations of other companies that can help me with work."
"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."
"Mr Jesus was absolutely great. He was timely, worked hard, and gave me a fair price for roof repairs. I would recommend or be a reference for his services."
"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"
"Armando replaced the flashing and vent pipe where condensation was coming through and dripping in the bathroom when it rained. He diagnosed the problem quickly and accurately, first checking the roof for any leaks. Work is excellent and fairly priced. I would recommend A and M Roofing to all HomeAdvisor users."
"I worked with NJN Roofing and Construction to get my roof replaced. Prior to needing my entire roof replaced, I called NJN out to conduct repairs on 2 or 3 different occasions due to leaks in my roof caused by different storms blowing shingles off. Adrian with NJN came out in the middle of a storm to get my leak stopped. When it came time to actually replace my roof Adrian was a huge help. After I submitted my claim with insurance, he handled everything from that point on. It was a very smooth and easy process. It took his crew one day to complete the entire job and they did an amazing job cleaning up after themselves. Highly recommend NJN roofing."
You can install solar panels on a metal roof, but it will require some additional thought and care versus a traditional asphalt shingle roof. That’s because heat dissipates off a metal roof differently than asphalt or wood, so you may need to space the panels further from the roof. However, a pro can help you with the details and provide a safe and effective installation.
The four types of roof sheathing are plywood, oriented strand board (OSB), planks, and tone-and-groove boards. The overwhelming majority of homes use the first two (especially OSB) and the other two are not often seen outside of special use cases. Methods of sheathing include solid sheathing, open sheathing where there are gaps, and plank sheathing. Most roofs are solid sheathing.
A metal roof can last anywhere from 15 to over 100 years, with an average of 50 years, depending on the material, installation, and environment. The specific metal is a key factor: aluminum roofs may last 20 to 45 years, while steel can last 30 to 60 years. Tin can last for up to 75 years, and more durable options like zinc, stainless steel, and copper can last from 80 to over 100 years. Factors that can shorten a metal roof's lifespan include living in a coastal region with corrosive salt air, improper installation (such as laying over old shingles), and failing to inspect and replace fasteners, which may wear out before the panels.
A roof can collapse from a leak if the leak is left unattended long enough. A collapse will happen when the structural components of your roof become saturated with water over time. The roof deck or rafters can slowly weaken until they can no longer support the weight of your roof.
Depending on the condition of your roof, you may be able to add flashing to it. If you’re looking for a way to maintain its integrity while saving some money, you should ask a roofing pro if this is an option. Keep in mind that if your roof is in poor shape, a full replacement may be necessary before flashing is installed.
