Homeowner Information A: Typically if your home was built anytime after 1980 and was roofed with a 3 tab shingle we will be able to recover your roof without the extra cost of tear of. This is only possible, however, if your home currently has only one layer of roofing and the sheeting is in good condition. A: Generally homes of this age have several layers of roofing that will need to be torn off before we can begin the roofing project. New Codes state that there can be no more than 2 layers of roofing on a roof. A: When getting a roofing estimate on a home of this age you can typically expect to have to do a tear-off, re-sheet and re-roof. In this case our team will tear off all the existing roofing material and sheeting on your roof and replace it with new sheeting and roofing. Appointment Information A: The estimate appointment will vary depending on each individual roofing circumstance and the homeowner’s preferences. A: You do not need to be home for us to give you an estimate, However, we do prefer to meet with you if at all possible so that we can go over any concerns you may have in regards to your roof. We are more than happy to schedule a time that is convenient for you. If you cannot be home for the estimate, we will still look at your roof, and one of our specialists will call you to go over your bid when it is complete. A: After the roof is assed by one of our specialist they will send you and estimate in the mail within 3 business days. Our estimate will explain the process of the roofing project and the price. Someone from our office will also contact you to see if you have any questions or concerns in reqaurds to the estimate or your roofing project. Roofing Process A: A roofing project will generally take anywhere from 2-5 days depending on the size of the project. A: Fall and spring are most ideal because the weather is neither to hot nor to cold. This being said; a roof can be put on anytime of the year. At Spokane Roofing we roof all 12 months of the year. A: It is difficult to give a general cost for a roof. Our specialists like to see the roof before they give a price so that you will not find any unexpected cost at the end of your project. Each project has different variables that will ultimately determine the cost. A: We do not ask for any money until the job is completed. When your job is complete your balance is due in full unless you have made previous financing arrangements. Acceptable forms of payment include; CASH, CHECK, CREDIT CARD, MONEY ORDER, or a CASHIERS CHECK. We do have Financing Options Available for those who need it. Please inquire within. Residential Roofing Options 
A: Composite shingles are made of asphalt and laminated fiberglass. They give the look of real wood shakes while providing better protection and ventilation for a longer life. For the best of both worlds, composition roofs are the way to go.
Spokane Roofing uses the following composition roofing materials: A: We are specialists in the replacement of worn-out flashings, and underlayments in restoring older roofs to their original integrity. This work is usually needed on slate and tile roofs over 50 years of age. A: Cedar shake roofs have been the most popular roof type over the last hundred years. Cedar shakes have always been the world's most enduring roofing material, and with modern treatment process' cedar has become as fire retardant as any laminate. Being one of the lightest and toughest roofing materials around makes this one of the best investments you can make in your house. A: Metal roofs have become a poular alternative to traditional roofing materials. Call our office for more product information Maintaining your Roof A: Check for ceiling spots and any signs of water damage on interior wall, which are usually a sign that your roof needs a leak repair. A: Inspect around chimneys and pipes for loose materials or wear. Flashing is the material installed between your roof and wall, such as the wall of your chimney. If the flashing is cracked, it should always be replaced as it could cause leaks, especially if you live in areas of the country that receive heavy snowfall. A: Clean gutters and check for excessive amounts of shingle granules in your gutters; granules give shingles added weight and protect them from ultraviolet rays. Make sure that the gutters are leaf- free because, if they aren’t, drain outlets will dam up and rainwater will fill the gutters, back up, overflow and eventually pull gutters loose from their mountings. Water that pools in troughs will rot wood gutters and rust sheet metal gutters. A: Check shingles for buckling, curling, or blistering; this indicated the end of the shingles' life expectancy. Blistered shingles often are caused by inadequate roof ventilation. Also note any missing shingles, which are sometimes hard to spot. Shingle Evaluation Checklist A: Inspect a number a shingle tabs to make sure they are well-secured to the roof, particularly along the roof edges. A: Use the tips of your fingers or thumbs to gently lift up on the edge of the shingle tabs to asess the strength of the adhesive and whether or not the tabs are wee-anchored to the shingle below. A: As long as the shingle is still flexible enough to lift and re-set flat, roofing cement can be applied. To do this with a caulking gun, place three dabs of asphalt cement about the size of a silver dollar under each tab, ad press firmly into the adhesive.(Or call us and we will come fix it for you) A: On gable ends, secure the three shingle tabs closest to the gable. |
