Read on for answers to your toughest roofing questions, and if you have more, feel free to give us a call.


What are my options when it comes to shingles? What is the difference?

When it comes to shingles, we offer several different options. The first option is the asphalt shingle, and we offer two different types. The three-tab shingle is the more traditional look for a roof. Each panel is uniform. The look is flat and simple, but the cost is affordable and preferred over other options. The second is the architectural shingle, the more popular option. Architectural shingles vary in size and shape, giving them a more dimensional look. They weigh more than three-tab shingles, so they tend to last longer. Architectural shingles can also help to raise the value of a home.

I changed my mind on the color of my shingles… I can just paint them, right?

Hold on! Although you CAN just paint your shingles, we really don’t recommend doing so. The main reason we suggest getting a new roof is that new shingles provide a beautiful gradient in their color. By painting your roof, you’ll end up with a one-dimensional look which isn’t very appealing to the eye. Shingles also tend to lose fragments over time so your old roof color will end up returning and looking splotchy. Leave the new color to us!

Can I have a new roof installed over my existing one?

Definitely! There is a downside to not removing your existing roof though. If you decide to install without removing, we won’t be able to inspect and repair the weatherproofing materials. Also, keep in mind that most building codes limit the layers on your roof to two. If you’re worried about whether you should remove or add, visit our website and check out our FREE Lake of the Ozarks roof inspection and quote request. We’d be happy to answer any specific questions you have.

3 Tips for Choosing the Right Roofing Contractor

Image
When you’ve decided to upgrade or repair your roof, finding a Lake of the Ozarks roofing contractor is one of the first steps you’ll take. In order to get the best service for your money, it’s important to choose the right roofing company at the Lake of the Ozarks . Finding the right contractor can be challenging, but these 3 tips can help you make the right choice. 1. Avoid Storm Chasing Salesmen During storm season, you may see roofing companies soliciting their services in areas that the storm seemed to affect the most. They will come to your door saying that they can see storm damage on your roof and will insist on you getting it repaired right away. The sales person will ask you to sign a letter of intent to try and lock you into paying for services they have not even bid yet. Once the company comes out to big, you’ll find you’re being charged for the most expensive products on the market. These companies survive on storm chasing and tricking you into paying any price...

Leaks can cause all sorts of serious issues including damage to your ceiling, water stains, rot, mold and mildew and other problems to your home.
