Roofing Facts

Ventilation: key to the longevity of your roof and controlling the temperature inside your home.

Resale: The very first thing a potential buyer sees when they pull up to view your home is Your Roof! If it is in failing or poor condition this will devalue your property & give the buyer one more bargaining chip to negotiate the price down.

Leaks: If your roof is 15-20 years old & not presently showing signs of leaks that doesn’t mean they are not present. The roofing industry has changed and the technology associated with it has improved dramatically over the years. By the time a leak is seen, damage to your home has already started.
