"Everyone involved were friendly and honest. The crew was on time, did a great job - finished our roof in one day and left the yard clean. Our roof was in great need of some repair as well as needing shingles replaced. We would recommend Homefix to anyone."

"Absolutely amazing experience with Veterans Choice Roofing! From start to finish, everyone I dealt with was professional, polite and honest. My roof was damaged in a storm last year and I had it repaired 2 other times by other contractors, but the leaking persisted. No fix. Veterans Choice came in, did a thorough analysis of what and where the issue was, and then fixed it for far less than I paid the other 2 contractors that did not fix it. I wish I knew about them the first time, I would have had this problem fixed a year ago! Once I decided on Veterans Choice, I spoke with Dylan and explained my frustration at not having the problem fixed by the other companies. Dylan told me they were going to find and fix the problem, and guaranteed it. I chose Veterans Choice and they set up the repair date. They came early in the morning (0730), were prepared and professional. Awesome A+++ service! I HIGHLY recommend if you want an honest, clean and professional job completed."

Roofing questions, answered by experts

The proper specifications for furring strips can vary, so you should always consult the roofing manufacturer's guidelines or your roofer. However, general recommendations are as follows:

  • Thickness: Furring strips are typically 1 to 1-1/2 inches thick, meaning standard 1-by or 2-by lumber works well. In areas with extreme winds, a thinner strip may be preferred to limit how much air can get under the roof and cause uplift. A thicker strip can add slightly more insulation but will also increase installation costs.

  • Spacing: The recommended spacing for furring strips is between 12 and 24 inches apart on center. Proper spacing is crucial for ensuring good airflow, adequate drainage, noise reduction, and better energy efficiency. The ideal spacing can depend on the roof's pitch and the specific type of metal roofing being installed.

The short answer is, yes, cedar shakes do last longer than asphalt shingles. But the long answer is, it depends on maintenance. Asphalt shingles last about 20 years, while cedar shingles typically last about 30 years with proper maintenance. If they are very well maintained and installed in an area with a mild, drier climate, they can last up to 50 years.

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.

You should definitely be wary of roofing contractors who offer significantly lower prices than their competitors. Most roofers in the area are all dealing with the same cost of materials, and labor costs are often comparable, too. If they’re significantly cheaper than other companies around, it could be a scam. Read reviews and ask other roofing companies and contractors if they’ve heard of the suspected scamming company.

A roof pitch multiplier is an accurate way to calculate roof square footage, and it’s handy for purchasing the correct amount of materials. To determine your roof pitch multiplier, you'll need to calculate the roof slope, square it, and add it to 144. Next, find the square root of the total and divide it by 12. The answer is your roof pitch multiplier. Once you know the roof pitch multiplier, multiply it by the total square feet of your building to determine the total roof surface area.
