Roofing Is One Of The Most Dangerous Trades?

Roofing is a very dangerous trade. We recommend you hire a professional to get up on your roof and inspect the shingles and the structure of the roof. STAY OFF YOUR ROOF!


I have contacted a roofing contractor, what's next?

  • The roofer will give you a time when they can inspect the roof. 
  • Then the roofer will give you a break down of the life left on your roof and give you a couple different options for repairing the roof.
  • Next you will need to decide if the cost of a new roof or just a repair best fits your finances.
  • Once you decide on the finances you will ask the roofing company for a written estimate for the job.
  • Once the estimate is signed the contractor will schedule the work.
  • The contractor might ask for a down payment, This is OK. Set up a payment schedule with them. many need 40% down to get the roofing material delivered and put up on the roof. I would make the payment schedule in 3 or 4 stages.
  • Once the work has started stay out of the roofers way and DO NOT go up on the roof! Let them do their job.
  • After the job is finished go around with the supervisor of the job and inspect the area and the roof.


What are some of the best choices for roofing materials?

Asphalt roofing shingles, One of the best and most affordable roofing materials is the 30 year laminate roofing shingle. Followed by the 50 year shingle, these are a heavy duty, high wind rated shingle for roofs with a pitch of 5/12 or greater.

Metal loc-seam roofing, is also a great roofing system. It can have a lifetime warranty on the product and can be in multiple colors. the only bad thing about metal roofing is it can be really loud in a rain storm...

Ceramic tile roofing, is a system that is not really for any home. It is best in a dryer climate and the home needs to be engineered to handle the weight of the roofing material. Ceramic Tile Roofing is very brittle.

Cedar shake roofing, Yes Cedar is a great looking roof, but it needs to be maintained often, like every 3 years at least. Some HOAs will make you replace your roof with cedar shake roofing or the Presidential roofing system. I would go with the Presidential roofing.

Flat Roof Material, TPO or PVC roofing material is the newest way to roof a flat roof structure. TPO style roofing material has taken the place of torch down roofing. But there is still a need for torch down and hot tar roofing companies.
