I clicked on your link to Kelly Roofing and nowhere did I see about adding longer clips to the roof. Looking at he difference between gable and hip roofs-apparently I have the gable roof. I purchased this home a few years ago and the previous owner had longer clips put onto the roof, longer than the standard which also makes it better to withstand the winds. I DID get a good discount from my insurance company for that. The inspector I had took photos of them and faxed the whole package to my insurance company. These are important things to know that can save you a decent amount of money.
