When selecting a contractor for your roofing project, there is more to be covered than just your roof. You must cover all the questions, and not leave anything to chance.
Issues like:
- Is the contractor insured adequately?
- Does he provide ongoing training for all of his employees?
- Is the contractor certified by the manufacturer, and trained in all of the latest installation techniques?
- Does the contractor provide a written warranty spelling out all limitations on materials and on labor?
- How long has the company been in business?
- Does the company provide references?
- Will they provide written specifications as to materials to be used, size, color, etc.?
- Are there provisions for the little "Extras"?
- Do they provide a start and completion date?
When the homeowner fails to gather all this type of information, they leave themselves open to an unpleasant experience with their contractor!

When The Roof is Beyond Repair
Once we determine that your existing roof is beyond repair we begin the process of designing a solution that is tailored to meet your specific needs. We combine our technical expertise with an understanding of your goals for the building structure to arrive at our final design recommendations. The following are some of our most important considerations:
- Are there design flaws in the original construction that need to be corrected?
- Is the roof structure sound?
- Is the roof draining properly?
- Is the equipment located on the rooftop a source for water penetration into the building?
- Will there be substantial roof traffic on the roof top?
- Is there any corrosive exhaust being deposited onto the roof top?
- Is there any trapped moisture in the existing roof system?
- Is the cost of our solution reasonable considering the purpose and value of the building?
- How can the roof replacement be done without interrupting the flow of business inside?
|
Once we agree on the appropriate solution we make every effort to perform our work, quickly, neatly, safely and with the least amount of disturbance possible to your operation.

Superior Venting Performance

When properly installed with eave and soffit vents, Ridge Vent provides superior attic ventilation. It equalizes temperature and pressure inside the attic more effectively than other types of ventilation products. It allows a constant flow-through of fresh air removing unwanted moisture and maintaining even attic temperatures. Patented Poly Fiber construction permits maximum air flow yet prevents water and insect infestation.

Year-Round Energy Savings

Cobra Ridge Vent reduces heating and cooling costs, often up to 30% - it virtually pays for itself in one year!
In cold conditions, moist attic air escapes through Ridge Vent minimizing condensation build-up. Insulation stays dry, inside of home stays warm and the result is lower energy bills!
In hot conditions, stale attic air escapes through Ridge Vent. Inside of home stays cooler and the result is lower energy bills!
