Roofing Reviews Project 7: New Roof & Gutters

Getting a new roof installation for the first time can feel overwhelming. However, that stress you may feel can be alleviated when you work with a knowledgeable roofer. For customers of Absolute Assurance Restorations we work diligently with them throughout the process to make for an easy new roof installation experience. 

Roofing Contractors

We respond quickly to our customers when they call. When we arrive we will do a thorough inspection of the entire roof. We will find any roof leaks and storm damage and document it. For example, one of the roofs we inspected had roof damage from storms with lifted up shingles. However, you couldn’t tell from the ground that the shingles were damaged. But there were leaks on the ceilings inside the home, so there was certainly damage somewhere! 

After consulting with the homeowner we got the ball rolling and started the roof replacement process. This particular roof was a full replacement and we also updated the fascia boards and gutters. 

Should you replace your gutters when you get a new roof? You should get them replaced if they are severely worn, rusted, and beat up. It tends to be cheaper to have your roofer do the gutter installation when they are also doing the new roof.

At a minimum, be certain all of your gutters are repaired and functioning properly while the roofers are there installing your new roof, or even if they are there for a roof repair. Our roofers will document any gutter problems when they are inspecting your roof.

“We were very pleased with the work Absolute Assurance did on our new roof, fascia and gutters. They left no mess behind and that made me very happy. We will definitely be using them for future renovations.”

Fascia  & Soffitsexterior of home with gray siding and new roof redone by shelby roofers

During any new roof installation, it is best to get your fascia boards and soffits updated as well, if they need it. Again, it is cheaper for you to have it done while the roofers are there, so talk with your roofer about this.

Most fascia boards need replaced because of old age and weather damage. Having updated fascia boards makes your home look much better and adds to the curb appeal. 

Repairing your soffits is essential and necessary. Soffits prevent moisture buildup inside the rafters of your roof. So never allow your soffits to go unrepaired for too long.

Common Signs of an Aging Roof

Is it time for a new roof? How do you know if your roof is going bad? Are there signs I should be paying attention to? Here are some four typical symptoms you would want to watch for when you are considering having a roof replacement. 

Common Signs of an Aging Roof

new roof installation and siding installation by roofing companies

Why does my roof have discoloration on it? 

Many shingles roofs are susceptible to having discoloration on them. This is caused by a type of blue-green algae that can grow on your shingles caused by Gloeocapsa Magma. This type of algae makes your roof look like it is in bad shape. It also can reduce the value of your home because it can really look bad. However, this blue-green algae does not actually harm your roof or affect the lifespan of your roof. So do not concern yourself with a roof repair to fix this. 

Roofing Companies

Why are my shingles peeling?

After years of exposure to the harsh elements like wind, rain, snow and ice, your shingles may start peeling. When your roof peels it is because some layers are expanding faster than other layers. Consequently, this causes the top layer of your shingle to pull away from the lower layer. When this pulling occurs it looks like the shingles are peeling away. Oftentimes, you may need to start planning for a new roof installation

new roof installation on home with blue siding by roofing companies

Why are my shingles blistering?

Roof blistering can occur due to poor ventilation in your attic. Your roof needs to breathe by having the hot air circulated out of the attic. This is done by having proper ventilation from your soffits and your ridge. When the proper ventilation was either installed incorrectly, blockage occurs, or is simply non-existent, underneath your roof can get too hot and cause your shingles to blister. This will weaken your roof’s effectiveness and reduce its lifespan.   

And it is important to note that slate roofing is the one type of roof that doesn’t blister. 

Why am I losing energy efficiency?

As your roof develops any of these types of issues it can affect your homes energy efficiency. When you have an aging roof, or it has damages, it reduces the insulation effectiveness which increases your home’s energy costs. A poor quality roof may cause your HVAC system to struggle to reach optimal temperatures during the peak winter and summer temperatures, driving up your energy bills.

Avoid Roofing in the Rain

When your roof has a leak the immediate urge to have it fixed as soon as possible can be overwhelming. Everyone wants to prevent further leaking and damage inside their home. Having to watch your ceiling and walls get ruined by water and not be able to immediately do anything about it can be unnerving to homeowners.

Avoid Roofing in the Rain

repaired chimney flashing on home done by Mansfield roofers

However, just because it needs to be sealed right away, or at least secured with a tarp, doesn’t mean that you should get up on a roof while it is still raining due to the hazardous conditions caused by the rain. 

Roofing is a dangerous occupation for even highly trained professionals. According to the Department of Labor “roofers” is the third most dangerous occupation in the United States. Because of these dangers most homeowners avoid getting on their roof. Many of them do an internet search and contact the top rated roofers for assistance. Absolute Assurance Restorations is one such company. 

Roofers in Mansfield Ohio

The typical dangers roofers are faced with when on your roof are only amplified during the rain. That is why it is unsafe for anyone to get onto a roof while it is still raining. The conditions on the roof are more hazardous because the roof is wet and this increases the likelihood for slips and falls.  

Also, any roof repair, or roof installation, done in the rain decreases the chances of the roof being installed or repaired correctly. A roof must be installed during more ideal conditions to guarantee that all parts of the new roofing system were installed correctly. Proper installation is necessary to optimize the life of the roof and to prevent any defects caused by shoddy installation. No one wants a newly installed roof that will fail when you need it the most. 

Quality roofers will secure your roof once the rain stops and conditions improve. If you do-it-yourself, wait until the conditions improve to repair your roof. Either way, damage to your home and hazardous injuries can be minimized by waiting for better conditions.

4 Questions to Ask During Your Free Roof Inspection

A professional roof inspection can help you understand what condition your roof is currently in. This opens the door for you to make better decisions about getting repairs or investing in a new roofing system. Learning more about your roofing system and structure will assist you in the decision making process. Our highly trained roofers share some important questions you should ask to determine if you are dealing with a reputable roofing company.

Questions to ask during your Free Roof Inspection

photo from street of brick home with roof installation by roofers in Lexington Ohio

How often should I have my roof inspected by a professional roofing company?

It depends on the age of your roof. Newer roofs should be inspected after major storms and if you notice lifted up shingles on the roof, shingles in the yard, or if you have leaks on your ceilings inside your home. 

Older roofs (over 10 years old) need to be watched a bit more carefully. Have it inspected every other year to determine the wear and tear from the volatile weather. Also, most roofers should be able to determine the remaining useful life of your roof.

Which parts of my roof need to be inspected?

Roofers should inspect the entire roofing system. Your shingles, flashing, attic ventilation, gutters and downspouts all need to be inspected. You may have lifted-up shingles caused by winds that aren’t noticeable from the ground. And you may have flashing that has deteriorated over the years that is allowing moisture and rain underneath your shingles causing leaks. 

new red roof installation by Mansfield roofers

Will my roof need to be replaced?

Typically, basic roof repairs should suffice for newer roofs. Unless something catastrophic has occurred like serious storm damage caused by high winds or hail, only then would you need a new roof installation. 

On older roofs any serious storm damage may require a full roof replacement or replacing an entire section of your roof. However, section repairs may be more necessary than just a basic roof repair because of how many shingles may need to be replaced. It may be more cost effective to replace a section instead of the whole roof, but it will still be a bit pricier than replacing the entire roof system. 

Is my roof well-ventilated? 

Attic ventilation is a necessity for a properly functioning roofing system. When your attic isn’t ventilated properly there can be a buildup of moisture and heat causing damaged shingles, mold and mildew. Poor ventilation will wear down your roof much faster. Knowledgeable roofers will be able to assess the air flow and make cost effective recommendations to extend the useful life of your roof. 

Familiarizing yourself with these four questions to ask during your free roof inspection will make you more informed and knowledgeable about the roof on your home.

home with icicles hanging on edge because of ice dams
Roof Installation Roof Repair

What Causes Ice Dams?

,We get quite a few calls during the harsh winter weather to remove ice dams from roofs, but how do you prevent ice dams? That is the easiest way to not have to deal with them. And since every winter there is the likelihood that harsh weather will strike our local region, it is best to prevent ice damming with a properly installed roof and insulation. 

What is an Ice Dam? 

An ice dam is a large frozen chunk of ice along the edge of your roof and gutters that has clogged up your normal water drainage system on your roof. And the moment you notice large icicles hanging off the edge of your roof, or gutters, you are likely dealing with an ice dam.

roofers ladder to remove snow and ice because of ice dams

When the ice dam blocks the flow of water from exiting your roof and gutters, it creates a scenario for greater amounts of ice to buildup and flow into the interior of your home. This is because the water that is melting off of your roof is completely blocked from exiting the edge of your roof and gutters. The more the snow melts at the higher elevations of your roof and flows down and refreezes, the greater the ice buildup. 

Some of that water flow will hit the ice dam and buildup around the edges of your roof as ice, and some won’t. Consequently, a lot of that water that doesn’t freeze will begin to seep underneath your shingles and flow into your attic and damage the interior of your home. Thus, the water flow into your home may be extensive and severely damaging. 

Ice dams can ruin the sheathing underneath your shingles, your ceilings, interior walls, and depending on how great the flow of water is, your floors as well. Hence, it can be a nightmare to cleanup, and the cost of a roof repair can be extensive and very inconvenient. 

What Causes Ice Dams?

edge of roof with ice dams

Roof Ventilation

The first thing you want to check for is proper attic ventilation. A roof that doesn’t breathe properly is a roof that gets very hot in the summertime and doesn’t get cold enough in the winter. During the winter, if consistent cold air from the outside is not flowing underneath your roof through the attic vents and soffit vents (installed on the underside of your home’s eaves), the underside of your roof may not stay cold enough. Accordingly, this will cause the snow and ice to melt on your roof and increase the flow of water toward the edges of your roof.  

Attic Insulation

Poor insulation is a likely cause of ice damming. Many homes have insulation that settles over time and  need to have additional insulation blow in. Filling your attic with the proper levels of insulation will prevent heat from escaping your home and prevent the snow from melting off of your roof too quickly. 

A newer home doesn’t necessarily mean that the proper amount of insulation was blown into your attic. You would need to have an inspection of your attic to determine that the proper levels of insulation are there. You can do this personally, or hire a qualified attic insulation company. 

Increasing the levels of insulation in your attic will reduce the likelihood of heat escape from your home. Consequently, this will reduce the likelihood of ice damming occurring, and your home will be more energy efficient. In other words, you will save money on energy bills, and you are more likely to prevent ice dams.

Mansfield Roof Replacement Project

When we take on different roofing projects we make absolutely certain we give it our full attention. This concept seems obvious and like it should be the basic operating principle for all roofers. Remarkably, many roofers don’t follow that simple common sense concept. 

That’s why at Absolute Assurance Restorations we follow a process for roof inspections. Certainly, we follow our in-house storm damage inspection process on each roof. This is a process we developed over the years that has helped hundreds of homeowners qualify for free roofs (paid for by insurance). Indeed, when we inspect your roof we don’t cut any corners. Therefore, on every roof we inspect we are on the lookout for possible storm damage.

From Roof Leak to Storm Damage Roof Replacement

 

roofers Mansfield new sienna brown shingle roof installed

This is especially true when homeowners call about roof leaks. Oftentimes, they aren’t keeping track of when storms came through their area, especially if they don’t notice the leak right away. Sometimes it just sneaks up on you. 

For instance, a recent customer called us about a roof leak and we scheduled the inspection at her earliest possible convenience. On the phone she described symptoms of water leaking that we were very familiar with based on our experience. Of course, she believed it would be a typical roof repair for the leak. However, our roofer found where the leaks were originating and not shockingly to us, lots of storm damage. In addition, we discovered sheathing damage underneath the shingles and made sure it was documented thoroughly. He documented the damage and provided her with the photographs and necessary information and she filed a claim.

We walked her through the process and within days, the adjuster approved the claim and we scheduled her new roof replacement. The rest is history. She received a brand new roof because of severe storm damage and it was covered by her insurance. 

Full Roof Warranty

All of our roofs are installed with the highest quality shingles and come with a workmanship guarantee. We are proud of the workmanship we provide and always take care of our customers. All of our roofs are installed in accordance with the Ohio Revised Code for residential roofing and commercial roofing. 

We are top rated roofers in Mansfield, Ohio. Absolute Assurance Restorations provides services for all types of roofs including, shingles, metal roofing, slate roofing, rubber roofing and flat roofing. Also, we are one of the top rated vinyl siding companies in the region. In addition, we can repair or replace your skylights, windows and gutters. Contact us for a free roofing inspection.

Storm Damaged Roofs in Ashland County

Here is a great example of the damage severe wind storms can cause to your homes roof. These storm damaged roofs in Ashland County got hammered for a full day with high winds causing extensive roof damage across the region.

We were called out to do emergency roofers repairs and emergency tarping to quite a few areas. In a situation like this one pictured, we were able to respond quickly (that very evening). Each of the calls we received that day were from homeowners who had noticed shingles in their yards. Over the next week we were able to respond to many roof repair calls to our office with similar roof damage. Most importantly, many of the roof inspections we were called out for qualified for new roof replacements paid for by insurance. 

Roofing Companies

Emergency storm damage roof repair at night.

We identified and confirmed that there was severe storm damage to these roofs. Upon arriving to most roofing repair calls, we not only confirmed and documented that there were downed shingles in the homeowners yards, but also that there were massive sections of missing shingles on their roofs! Most of these patches were very large in size and located on numerous areas of their roofs.

Many of the homeowners were very surprised when they realized the extensive damage caused to their roof from one wind storm. Also, the sheer size of the sections of missing shingles was mind-blowing in a few cases. Some of these homes even had entire sections of their vinyl siding torn off by the high winds. 

Emergency Roof Tarping

After identifying and documenting the damage with the homeowner, our trained roofers did what they do best and got to work. Our roofers went back onto the roof and cover each section of the roof with emergency tarps. (Our emergency tarping services are done as soon as possible to prevent any additional damage to the home.)

Protection from the harsh elements is hugely important. For any roofers, preventing additional damage to the sheathing on your roof and to the interior of your home should be a priority. This is also important for insurance claim reasons. Homeowners need to take the necessary steps to prevent further water damage once they realize they have storm damage to their roof. 

[When Do You Need New Roof Sheathing?]

After emergency tarping this particular roof, we then proceed with the process of putting together their estimate so they could process their insurance claim. This customers claim was approved very quickly and we coached them on each step in the claim process about what to expect. Their home is now on the fast track to being restored to its proper condition and it will be paid for by their insurance.

roof replacement sheathing after shingles were torn off
Roof Installation Roof Repair Roof Replacement

When Do You Need New Roof Sheathing?

When you have an undetected leak on your roof for a prolonged period of time you may have to replace your sheathing. This is because vulnerable shingles that appear to be undamaged to the eye, are actually damaged because of severe storms or improper roof installation.

The sheathing under your roof, also referred to as the deck, is the wood support that makes up the base of your roof. It is the sheathing that all of your shingles are nailed to. When your roof shingles are damaged, rain water can make its way underneath your roofing system and get trapped between the shingles and the wood. Once trapped, the water will rot the wood beneath your shingles and your roofing system. Over time, your sheathing will rot and create even easier paths for water to make it into your home.

Damaged Roof Sheathing

The sheathing on your roof is made of oriented strand board (OSB) or plywood. Since they are both wood products, they are susceptible to wood rot. In older homes, long wood boards were used as the decking that your shingles are nailed to. Again, all of these boards are susceptible to wood rot if moisture and rain water makes it way underneath the shingles. Water damaged sheathing can cause additional problems for your home. 

Water Damaged Sheathing

Constant leaking onto your sheathing can occur due to damaged shingles. Lifted up shingles caused by storms and improper installation (like nails going all the way through the shingles) can both cause pathways for water to get underneath your shingles. Oftentimes, when this situation occurs it is not immediately noticeable that your roof is leaking. It could takes months, even years, for damage to be noticeable on the interior of your home. This is especially true if the water is trapped between the sheathing and your shingles. 

Ceiling damage inside your home is an obvious symptom of a roof leak. What isn’t obvious is how long that roof leak has been occurring and the extent of the damage the leak has caused. It is possible that the water finally made its way down to your ceiling because it took some time to rot out your sheathing. Rain water repeatedly making its way underneath your shingles and roofing system, and sitting for prolonged periods (without drying) will rot the sheathing wood.

Molded Sheathing

First, water damaged roof sheathing can lead to mold on the underside of the sheathing wood. When the rain water gets through your shingles and flashing it just sits there. There is no guarantee it will dry out and not cause additional damage, thereby causing mold. Which opens the door for the second problem, prolonged leaks can lead to water getting into the walls of your home, if not immediately repaired, where mold will grow. 

Mold needs to be dealt with immediately. Any roof sheathing with mold on it needs to be replaced as soon as possible. Moldy wood in your home is not safe for you and your family. And until the roof leak is repaired, and sheathing replaced, additional rain water will keep making its way into your home causing further, and more costly damage. 

Sagging Roof

A sagging roof is evidence of damaged sheathing underneath. If you notice from the ground that your roof is sagging, contact a qualified roofing professional immediately. A sagging roof can be dangerous because you don’t know how bad it is or where the weaknesses are. Entire sections of the roof could be completely rotted out. 

Roof Sheathing Installation

Once your roof is diagnosed and any leaks are identified, it is hugely important to hire a qualified roofing company to repair your roof damage properly and bring your home up to code. (Referring to the Ohio Revised Code regulations for roofing installation.) A lot of “preferred contractors” and shoddy roofers don’t install sheathing correctly, or even realize that it needs to be replaced, so be certain you hire roofers you can verify are knowledgeable about the process and the necessary regulations.

Roof installation where we had to install new sheathing underneath

Lastly, it is important to always keep in mind you need proper roof installation to avoid any problems with your manufacturer’s warranty. An improperly installed roof may void the warranty. Also, if you have a storm damage claim, your insurance company may deny your claim because your roof was not installed in accordance with the Ohio Revised Code

Absolute Assurance Restorations is one of the top rated roofing companies Mansfield Ohio. We install all types of roofs including shingles, slate roofing, metal roofing, rubber and flat roofs.

Roof and Home Siding Damage Qualified as Claim

Absolute Assurance Restorations handles lots of Mansfield roofing claims. Throughout the entire summer we have inspected many homes for simple repairs and they ended up having severe roof damage from storms during the spring. Here is another quick example. 

Storm Damage Roofing Inspection

We had a recent call for a roof repair. Apparently, there was a leak in one of the bedrooms of the home. It seemed simple and easy to the homeowner. The ceiling damage looked small and not too serious. However, when one of our roofers got there and onto the roof, extensive wind damage was discovered. 

Entire sections of shingles had been lifted up. Each time it would rain and the wind was blowing, rain water was easily making it into the attic of the home. (Typically, when it rains during a storm, there are strong winds.) We documented the damage and reported it to the homeowner. He was utterly shocked when he saw how extensive the damage was! When your roof looks okay from ground level, it is just hard to believe that a storm could cause so much damage. But the pictures of the damage always provide a new understanding of how powerful Mother Nature can be. 

Vinyl Siding Damage 

In addition to the extensive damage on the roof, this particular home also had severe damage to the siding as well. There were cracks throughout entire sections of his vinyl siding. Again, this homeowner could’ve believe that so much damage had been inflicted on his home by a previous storm that happened in late spring. Remember, he was just looking to get a simple roof leak repair!

roofers near me home with shingle roof and gray vinyl siding

After documenting all of the damage, we advised this homeowner throughout the claims process. Ultimately, his roof and siding damage qualified as storm damage and was paid for by his insurance. 

Once approved, we sent out our roofing contractor crew and our vinyl siding contractors crew at the homeowner’s convenience. The roof replacement and vinyl siding replacement were done in one day and we quickly cleaned up the yard mess afterward. The roof and siding were installed in accordance with the Ohio Revised Code and both came with full manufacturers warranties. Also, we provided our standard full workmanship warranty.

Roofers Ohio Responsible Restart Update

Throughout the Ohio stay-at-home orders, Absolute Assurance Restorations has been operating at full-scale as an essential business. As hard working roofers in Ohio, we are super excited that a plan was laid out to Responsibly Restart Ohio that will directly help more businesses reopen across Ohio. Since we have been fully functional throughout these difficult times, we are confident that as a society we can do this while protecting one another.

Basic Safety Procedures Will Continue

Public officials laid out their basic plan for all Ohioans to follow so that more of us can get back to work while simultaneously still protecting each other and our families. Firstly, the plan involves staggering the opening of select sectors of the economy while still balancing health and safety. Secondly, maintaining current social distancing procedures are essential. Thirdly, employees must wear “face coverings.” Also, employees must maintain hand washing procedures and periodically sanitize their work spaces. Lastly, any employee who is symptomatic at work must “immediately isolate and seek medical care.” 

Here is the bulletin issued out by health officials:

Responsible Restart Ohio Business Open Dates

Here is a breakdown of businesses that can open in Ohio with the start date:

  • On May 1, we will have a healthcare opening. Remember, we slowed non-essential procedures down because we needed to make sure: that we had enough hospital beds, PPE, and social distancing… All healthcare procedures that do not require an overnight stay in a hospital can move forward. Dentists and veterinarians can also begin full steam ahead on May 1.
  • May 4th: Manufacturing, Distribution, and Construction will open back up. But we’re going to require those who are opening and those who already have been open – to follow strict guidelines on how to reopen.
  • May 4th: General office environments can reopen in Ohio. However, we still want people to work from home as much as possible.
  • May 12th: Consumer, Retail, and Services to reopen.

Businesses Not Scheduled to Open Yet

At this time, some business sectors are not permitted to reopen until further notice including: 

roofers ohio business sectors still closed

I personally know many small business owners who cannot open yet. They are great people and this is a very difficult time for them and their employees. I think it is important for the rest of us to do our part to further this opening process along by maintaining all required safety standards. Until then, we will continue to support as many businesses as we can, including restaurants who offer carry-out meals and eLearning for students.

Soon enough, we hope our fellow Ohioans are back to work. I look forward to the day when I can get my typical buzz cut, get a great workout in at the gym, and grab a beer at my favorite restaurant.

Siding Damage from Storms

When a Storm Damages Your Siding

When a storm damages your siding you will need to get an inspection done as soon as possible. If there are visible holes or cracks in your siding then you will need to get it repaired as soon as possible. High velocity crosswinds can blow debris or hail directly into your siding causing severe damage. Oftentimes, the damage is more severe than most people realize because it goes beyond just needing siding replacement. There may be hidden damage toward the peaks of the home where the damage isn’t quite as visible when you are observing the damage from the ground.  

Most homeowner’s policies protect you from wind and hail damage when it damages your siding, windows, and trim. Most importantly, your roof is covered in the event that the damage affected your roof as well. When we get called out to do inspections for siding damage caused by storms, we always inspect the roof. It is essential that when you get an inspection for your siding that the roofers inspect your roof as well. Consequently, if your siding is damaged by the storm then it is highly likely that your roof is damaged as well.

Storm Damage Siding & Roof Inspection

When customers call Absolute Assurance Restorations about siding damage, first of all, we give you a free siding inspection. Secondly, we inspect your siding and then we inspect your roof. Above all, your roof will be thoroughly inspected for missing and lifted up shingles from the wind and possible hail damaged shingles. Roof damage must be identified as soon as possible to prevent further damage to your home. Lastly, it is important to keep in mind that most homeowner’s policies cover cosmetic damage as well. For example, hail damage will not cause leaks if it dents metal roofing, but in many cases the metal roofing is still covered under cosmetic damage on your homeowner’s policy. 

After your free estimate we will provide you with your best options for your storm damage siding repair. We are a top rated metal roofing company in Mansfield, Ohio. We do all types of roofs including shingles, slate and flat roofs. Also, siding replacement, skylights and windows. Contact us for a free estimate (419) 709-7223.

Roofers Ohio Stay-Home Orders

How is the stay-at-home order in Ohio working out for Roofers? 

How is the current Ohio stay-home order working out for roofers? So far, things are working out pretty well. While I cannot speak for any other roofers near me, we have been able to repair lots of roofs and follow the “no contact” orders. We have responded to many roof repair calls and our roofers are able to successfully inspect our customers roofs while maintaining a safe distance. Also, customers with interior ceiling damage have successfully provided us with pictures so we can document the damage in our estimates.

Storm Damaged Roofs

Putting emergency tarps on storm damaged roofs has been easy to do. Certainly, that part of the process doesn’t involve direct contact with our customers. After tarping a customers roof, we have emailed them their estimate and got the process rolling for the customers who have claims they need to file. A lot of their roofs were damaged in the recent storms. Also, we have had quite a bit of hail damage in certain areas from hail that is almost two inches in diameter!
We have had plenty of roof repairs and many of our customers have been very accommodating and understanding. Our new process of avoiding close contact and emailing estimates to customers has been a big success. If anything, most customers seemed very excited about the ease of transition under the current circumstances. We are very grateful that all of our customers have been so easy to work with during this period of extreme caution. 

As roofers, Absolute Assurance Restorations will continue to remain open during this Ohio stay-at-home period because we are an essential business. When your roof is damaged, we will respond quickly for you. Also, if you need siding repair, metal roof repair, or slate roof repair, contact us. We treat our customers with the highest priority.
