"Arrived at my house less than two hours after I called for help. The leak in my roof was fixed that same afternoon! He was extremely respectful and explained in detail how the repair was completed. He also followed up with me a few weeks later to make sure that there was no additional problems. If another problem arises, I will definitely call him. 10/10"
"I had Peter from 208 roofing come out to my house in Idaho Falls and give me an estimate to replace my roof with a metal roof his estimate was very low cost and we agreed a short time after him and his crew showed up he was very efficient very neat and clean and what a super good job they done I would highly recommend Peter and his crew to anybody looking to have roof repair or a new roof installed"
"Excellent work and product. My roof looks great and I have peace of mind again. We have had winds 70 and 80 mph, and never any issues. I would recommend Apex for any roof or gutter needs ?"
"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."
"This was the third roofing job that Monte Vista has done for me. They are always very professional and when they leave you have a very hard time finding any debris left from their work. They are prompt and the job is done with absolutly amazing efficency. There has been no issuse with any of thier jobs for us and the quality of their work is superb. I am going to use them to do a remodeling job for me and I have no qualms about it. Highly recommended. "
A shingle roof costs between $7,500 and $24,000 in total. The exact cost depends on the size of your roof and the number of bundles of shingles required. A bundle of shingles typically costs between $40 and $60, though contractors might be able to get a lower price than you’d get buying from a local hardware store.
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.
Sticky shoes help, but you shouldn't be walking on the steel roof— let the pros do that. it's dangerous enough to walk on asphalt shingled roofs which have quite a bit of texture. Stone coating adds a lot of grip, but it still doesn't lock your foot down, so if you absolutely have to be on the roof, make sure you’re secured in another way, like with the harness and rope.
In most cases, installing solar panels will not void your roof warranty. To keep roof warranties intact, check your written warranty or call the manufacturer to ask about clauses regarding roof penetrations. You can also protect yourself by getting written approval or a modified warranty that specifically allows the solar installation type you’re planning. Then, hire a professional solar installer that follows roofing manufacturer instructions and protects the roof during installation.
The roof pitch on a Cape Cod house is normally 8/12 or 10/12, meaning the roof rises 8 to 10 inches for every 12 inches of horizontal run. This is steeper than the now-standard 6/12 pitch, as Cape Cod homes were originally popular in northern states, where the steeper pitch helped snowfall slide readily off the roof.
