Q: Does homeowners insurance cover roof repairs, leaks, or replacement?

• <div><p>Homeowners insurance typically covers roof repairs or replacement if the damage is caused by a sudden, accidental event or a covered peril, such as a storm, wind, hail, fire, or a falling tree. However, insurance will not cover repairs or replacement for issues stemming from a lack of maintenance, normal wear and tear, or a roof that is simply old and at the end of its lifespan. If a leak or damage occurs due to neglect, you will likely have to pay for repairs out of pocket.</p></div>

Q: What are the recommended thickness and spacing for furring strips on a metal roof?

• <div><p>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:</p><ul><li><p><b>Thickness:</b> 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.</p></li><li><p><b>Spacing:</b> 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.</p></li></ul></div>

Q: What is the formula for measuring a roof?

• <div><p>The common formula for measuring a roof is length x width equals square footage. Professional roofers measure the length and width of your roof, including dormers, and determine its pitch and <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/roof-rafters-size.htm">rafter sizes</a>. If a roof surface is a triangle, they&rsquo;ll divide that square footage by two, then add up the square footage of each surface to get the total for the roof.</p></div>

Q: Do you have to remove shingles before installing a metal roof?

• <div><p>In most cases and locations, roofs with a single layer of asphalt roofing shingles won't require roof removal before installing a metal roof. However, underlayment may be necessary on roofs with moderate shingle damage. Heavily damaged roofs or ones with multiple shingle layers will most likely require removal before a metal roof can go on.</p></div>

Q: Can I keep my old roof if I build a second story?

• <div><p>Sometimes. Professionals may be able to remove the old roof and re-attach it when completed, depending on your blueprints. That can help you save money. But this method is not without its risks. Larger roofs may crack during the transportation process. And if the roof is old or has problems, it may be better to replace it entirely. Keeping the old roof isn&rsquo;t always possible if you are making significant alterations to the roofline. </p></div>

"
Our point of contact was Gary Courtright who did an excellent job in communicating, estimating, and coordinating the repairs and roofing shingle replacement for our rather large and expansive home in Fruit Heights, Utah, where in some years, the canyon winds through our town can exceed 100 MPH. After 25 satisfactory years on our old roof, we contracted Kimball to complete some extensive roofing plywood repairs, re-flashing, re-membraning, and re-edging of the entire 6,000 SF roof. Per Gary's expert advice, plus Louie and Rohojolo outstanding installation, we ended up with a very attractive and fully sealed roof that will probably last twice as long as our previous roof. We now have a Tamko 50 year architectural shingled and ridged roof that can now withstand winds up to 150 MPH. SUPER. JOB WELL DONE !

"They replaced the garage roof at my home. It took forever to hear from them once we signed the contract. The Roof itself looks great. They kind of just showed up whenever the mood struck. No specific times were ever given, even after they told us they were coming to do the roof. The price was not what was agreed upon in the contract. I called & asked if it was possible to have an approximate date (even within a week) when they were coming & they flat out said "No". Most of the roofers did not speak English, so that was a problem. They did not do a good job of cleaning up after themselves. If I had not looked in the driveway after they left, I would have run over a nail!! There were also other stray nails on the sidewalk & in the grass. They did not do a very good job of cleaning up the whole area. They were great until they got the contract signed... then not so great."
