"The entire process from meeting and discussing with Andre our roofing needs to his professional team providing the roof we hoped for was excellent. The roofing team did a great job removing our very old roof, replacing it with a roof that met high standards living in a hurricane zone and making sure that the roof met every expectation. The crew was friendly, prompt and professional. We were also very pleased with the removal and clean up of all the old roofing materials and debris. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Many thanks to Andre and his team for providing us with a beautiful roof!"
"I reached out to Roland’s Roofing after a major hail storm damaged the standing seam metal roof on a new owner/builder house project. From quotation to completion, the entire roof replacement process went very smoothly. The project took less than a week with craftsmanship and attention to detail that are second to none. Bryan, Robert, everyone on the roofing team and the office staff were professional, honest and extremely polite. I can’t thank them enough for a job well done. I am looking forward to working with Roland’s Roofing again on my next project."
"I have concrete tiles on my roof, and a few were broken by the hail storm last summer. I had tried since then to get a roofer to fix the broken tiles, and some rotted wood. Each one I contacted wanted 2 things: 1. hat did my insurance appraiser say? and 2. They asked if I had any of the tile on my roof as they didn't know what kind it was. or if they could find it. Finally, I came across Carlos on Homeadvisor. He responded immediately and came to look at my roof, the same day in fact. As e looked at the roof, he told me what type of tile I had and said "he has that". He took ample pictures on the roof, and shoed me the damaged areas. He gave me a quote, it was fair, right in line with other quotes I had had. I asked when he could start, he said next Tuesday. We signed a contract. Next Tuesday (2 days ago), he and a partner showed up promptly at 0830, Turns out, I also had a section of my roof being attacked by Carpenter Ants. I called my pest control service, and they came out and treated. Carlos and I adjusted the contract on the spot, (very fair again), and on day 2 he had expanded his crew, and proceeded to rebuild a section of my roof. Bottom Line: I found a reliable service that actually knew my roof, and got repairs done all within 1 week, at a fair price. C&R Roofing is not only on my short list for roof repair, they are my short list. If you have a roof issue, do yourself a favor, and at least give him a shot to give you a quote and talk to you about your roof."
"Ruben Villalobos, principle of Lobo Roofing, did an outstanding, cost-effective job in replacing our damaged attic ventilation unit and the surrounding roof wood structure and tiles that were causing a major leak on our home plus individually caulking all the numerous nails that were attaching all of the roof top attic ventilation, pipes and other roof top units to prevent any future roof leaks. Lobo?s customer service and work quality are great!"
"Richard replaced our old roof with a newest state of the art roofing Materials. He kept his word as far as the quality of the work and the timely manner in which it was performed. He was very courteous as were his workers. I ended up with a very Good Looking 30 year Plus Roof. I would definitely recommend Jett Roofing for your Roofing needs. Great job Richard. Thanks"
"In addition to sealing my roof vents, Rick gave me an education on roof repairs. Knowledgeable and experienced, he is a great guy to talk with. Would hire him again, without hesitation."
"Trinity Roofing did an excellent job for me. I was pleased with their quality of work and would highly recommend them to anyone. Thank you for a job well done."
"Mike is a no-nonsense down to earth get it done guy. He provided a detailed listing of products and cost estimate. Work began immediately. His crew was courteous and professional. Mike was onsite (meaning up on the roof) often. The test came this past week with all the heavy rains. All was snug and dry. I am just delighted with the quality of the roof and the workmanship. I highly recommend Rattler Roofing."
"Roofing job was well done. But tarps used to catch removed roofing material also crushed some plants/bushes I have. They arrived earlier than expected which I was very happy about. Work was finished in one day."
No, cool roofs are not suitable for all climates. Cool roofs are very good at reflecting solar heat, so they’re suitable for homes in warm or hot climates. However, they’re not good at retaining heat, so they’re not suitable for homes in cold climates.
No, you do not need gable vents if you have a ridge vent. In fact, gable vents would actually interrupt the process that ridge vents are set to conduct. You would be better off to decide between the two depending on your home’s needs.
White is the most energy-efficient color for roofs because solar energy reflects off white surfaces the best. Silver is also a good choice.
Copper roof strips offer better coverage and more damage protection than zinc roof strips. Although both deter moss and algae growth, copper also offers UV protection. Zinc strips require more strips than copper to cover the roof’s surface area, which means more holes in your roof. Copper strips are also more flexible and last longer than zinc strips.
A roof overlay will last an average of 15 years, compared to the 20 to 30 years or more that a full roof replacement for a shingle roof will last. An overlay’s lifespan may be shortened even further if there’s underlying damage to the existing roof or structural problems with the roof supports.
