We'll walk you through what the inspection covers, which materials we plan to use, and exactly what's included — and excluded — before any work begins.
Frequently asked questions
What is the difference between architectural and traditional shingles?
Architectural shingles are generally thicker and more dimensional than traditional 3-tab shingles, giving the roof more depth and a heavier, higher-end look.
Does shingle colour affect the house?
Colour strongly affects curb appeal and can make the roof appear larger, lighter, heavier, or more integrated with the siding and masonry.
Why does ventilation matter on a shingle roof?
Balanced intake and exhaust ventilation helps control attic heat and moisture. The roofing system should be planned with the home's existing ventilation conditions in mind.
