"It's not always easy to find a company/service provider that can meet the expectations of the home owner. So to find one that actually surpasses expectations is a real surprise. But that's what my experience with Diamond Roofing turned out to be. Professional, friendly, no-nonsense crew, helpful, with a complete customer focus, absolutely no 'up-selling' and going beyond what was asked for. These are the qualities that I was afforded by this top-notch company. Usually even a good experience will have some aspect where you say to yourself, 'well, they could have done that part just a little bit better'. Not with these guys. I can't come up with anything that they could have improved upon. As an investor in real estate, I expect to be calling Diamond Roofing whenever I need to deal with a roofing issue from now on."

"We needed a new roof including new sheeting. Our roof was a 23 year old composite roof with 3/8" sheeting. We received 3 bids from different roofing companies. All of the bids came in within a few hundred dollars of each other. We decided to go with A Better Roofing Company because of reviews, their history in the area dating back to 1991, and the professionalism of Daniel who wrote up the estimate. We received the estimate in October 2018 and the job was completed in December 2018. Scheduling was a difficult because of the rainy days. The crew started on a friday and finished on sunday. The crew worked right thru until the job was done. When i had my extimate done i had choosen white flashing around the roof to match the facia board. The crew mistakenly installed dark flashing that matched the black roof we choose. When I did the walk through after the job was completed with Michael right before Christmas i pointed that out. He immediately said they would come out and replace it with the correct flashing. Since Christmas was a few days away I related to Michael that they could come out anytime after Christmas, no hurry. The next day when i got home from work it was all replaced. That was being responsive! The roof is beautiful and solid. I would recommend A Better Roofing Company to everyone."

"Excellent. This was for the house next door to us that we own. We’ve use Aaron Carter before. It went extremely well and smooth. I came home, there was a new roof on the house (that’s how it seemed to me, anyway). Okay, so the estimate was well-written and explained what they would be doing. See attached pic for details. Aaron sent us a bill. It wasn’t much more than the estimate. Boom. Done."

"Patriot roofing is an outstanding company. They weren’t the cheapest but as the saying goes you get what you pay for. From our salesman Levi, the crew(Alan and his crew) to the final inspection with Eb...they were all professional, courteous and hard working. The roof turned out even better than expected and our property was treated with respect and left as if no one had been there. Thanks again and we will recommend you to anyone we know that needs a roof."

Roofing questions, answered by experts

While you technically can add a roof over shakes or shingles, it’s not a good idea. Roofing over existing roofing creates a moisture barrier underneath the new roof and since the trapped material is wood, you can expect a moisture problem. While you could get away with installing a new roof over asphalt or steel, wooden roofs should be removed, new underlayment installed, and the new roof installed over that. Also, the extra weight would add strain to your roof structure.

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.

Asphalt roofs provide better insulation than metal roofs, but that doesn’t always mean that asphalt roofs are better for reducing heating and cooling bills. In hotter climates, metal roofs will usually be better for home efficiency because the material reflects more sunlight and reduces solar heat gain. In colder climates, asphalt roofs are sometimes superior in terms of efficiency because they introduce more solar heat gain to your home and have greater insulating capabilities. However, metal roofs installed with an air gap can provide similar levels of insulation.

If your roof has a vapor barrier, you will need approximately one square foot of roof vent for every 300 square feet of ceiling space. If there is no vapor barrier, the roof should have one square foot of roof vent for every 150 square feet of ceiling space. If you are not comfortable making this determination, a local roofing professional can help.

No, ice dams aren’t a standalone sign that you need a new roof. Ice dams can form on new roofs, as issues with the insulation inside your home are often the underlying problem. However, if you notice signs of roof damage from ice dams, you might need to hire a local roofer for repair or partial replacement.
