What will the estimator look
for when inspecting the roof of my home? |
 |
Our estimators inspect the roof covering,
the drainage systems, the flashing (around
skylights, chimneys, vent pipes), and the
ventilation systems. |
|
|
How will I know if a roof has problems? |
|
|
Roof problems are
generally discovered after leaking or other
serious damage occurs. The condition of the
shingles will determine whether a repair or
replacement roof is appropriate. When worn
out, shingles sometimes curl, warp or lose
granules and may have missing or damaged
shingle tabs. Pay particular attention to
any visible signs inside of your home such
as cracked paint, discolored plasterboard,
and peeling wallpaper. |
|
|
My roof is leaking. Does this mean I need a
new one? |
|
|
Not necessarily. You
may only need repair work. Leaking can
result because some flashings have come
loose or because a section of the roof has
been damaged. The best way to determine the
problem is to call in a professional roofing
company for an evaluation. We offer FREE
roofing inspections. Submit the form on this

your roof. |
|
|
What kind of roof do I need? |
|
|
There are many types
of roof systems and membranes available.
This can depend on building use, access,
weight loads, foot traffic, number of
penetrations, cost, etc. all play a factor
in roof selection. Our sales representatives
will take the time to show the composition
of the types, the distinctions in the
various brands, how they’re tested, what the
warranties are, and which suits your
specific needs and budget. |
|
|
Will the roof be completely torn off? |
|
|
We recommend a
complete removal of the old roof system for
homeowners seeking a replacement roof. In
some circumstances, particularly when there
is only one layer of shingles on the roof,
it is possible to re-roof or re-cover
existing shingles with a new roof. However,
placing a new layer of shingles over aging
shingles may give the roof an uneven
appearance. |
|
|
How long can I expect my roof to last? |
|
|
The condition and
lifespan of your roof will depend on the
type of roof you have, the effects of your
local environment and the maintenance, which
the roof has received. |

|
How long will it take for the roof to be
completed? |
|
|
Once we have started
work on your home, that work is not
interrupted until it is completed - weather
permitting. When your job is scheduled, it
is the only job for that crew until
completion. |
