It used to be that a quality roof merely meant keeping the water out. Now (literally) you can drive through your own neighborhood and actually NOTICE someone's roof. It stands out, it adds to the house. Manufacturers such as Certainteed and GAF have come along way into making their products not only functional beyond compare, but also really attractive to boot. "Dimensional" or "Architectural" shingles have become all the rave these days, and for good reason, they really don't cost that much more than a standard "three tab" shingle. It's a fairly simple laminating procedure that adds depth and character to the shingle, often times imitating shakes or tiles.
With outstanding warranties (25, 30, 40 & 50 year warranties!), color and style options galore, it's no wonder why many homeowners are replacing their existing roofs even before their projected warranty lifetime has expired. They just look a whole lot better and it's probably the last roof most homeowners will ever have to have installed on their home.
Let's face it, roofing a home is not easy. If it was, it would be a favorite of the DIY homeowners as the most common shingles can be purchased at you local "Big Box" store. It's back breaking work and if it is not done right the first time, can become an ongoing source of problems and frustration. This is why we not only back up our roof replacement work with unprecedented labor warranties, in ADDITON to the manufacturer's warranty, but we follow up with annual inspections, once a year, every year for FIVE years! We look for weather related problems caused by storms, heavy winds and even droughts. We do this to help stave off more serious situations where an unforseen problem has occured that can literally open the gates to a heavy downpour.
Below you will find links with important information from our main product manufacturer's. Please don't just trust your roof to anyone with the lowest possible price. Please consider recommendations, reputation, experience, longevity and warranties when purchasing a new roof. Buying a roof is not like buying a car, you won't be selling or upgrading anytime real soon.
