"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."
"I work for a local Insurance Company (Homeowners Claims Department) for over 25 years. In my years experience it is rare to find a Roofing Company that is â honestâ and that is willing to offer a â roof repairâ verses a roof replacement. Due to recent wind storm our roof needed repairs. Three Local Roofing Companies offered roof replacement at high cost. Granada Roofing inspected our roof and advised that they would be able yo repair."
"Ramiro’s Roofing, Siding & Roofing Repairs were one of three referrals given to me by Home Advisor. My rental that is between tenants showed signs of a leak in the roof from the heavy rainfall over the past few weeks. Set up an appointment for Ramiro to check it out. In addition I had some siding issues where the nails were backing out. He quickly assessed the problem and provided me a quote to take care of both items. I was impressed with Ramiro’s knowledge and the reputation of his company’s work quality and service and accepted the quote. Ramiro started the job a day later and was done the same day. I was very pleased with the siding and the issue that caused the leak was expertly resolves. If I ever need siding or roofing service in the future I will go to Ramiro."
The ridge is the horizontal line where two sloping roof sections meet at the top, forming the highest point of the roof. A hip, on the other hand, is the external angle formed where two roof sections meet and slope downward toward the walls, typically at a lower angle than the ridge. The ridge runs horizontally along the peak and the hip runs diagonally from the peak to the roof's edges.
If your home doesn't have gutters, you can still hang Christmas lights on the roof using specialized clips. Use roof clips designed to attach to shingles or fascia. For tile roofs or the edges of the rooftop, consider using parrot clips. Adhesive light-hanging clips are also a great option. It's important to avoid using nails or staples, as they can damage your roofing material. For unique or complex installations, it's best to consult a professional Christmas light installer to find the safest and most effective solution for your home.
DIY is not recommended, as slate requires specialized handling and proper underlayment installation for durability.
Roofing felt is the most common type of roof underlayment, likely because it has been around the longest. It’s called roofing felt because it is often made of felt soaked in asphalt. Depending on the type of roofing a home has, roofing felt comes in different thicknesses.
If properly installed and maintained, roofing felt should last between 10 and 25 years.
Metal roofs have a reputation for being noisy, but with proper installation and adequate insulation, they are not significantly noisier than shingle roofs. The type of metal used can affect the sound level; for instance, steel roofs are typically noisier than slate or asphalt tiles but quieter than aluminum. While some people find the sound of rain on a metal roof pleasant, you can take steps to reduce the noise. Installing a thicker underlayment, adding insulation between the roof and the house, or using acoustic tiles can effectively muffle the sound. The gauge (thickness) of the metal roofing can also contribute to sound dampening.
