New Roof Recommendations
Will be getting estimates on a new roof. Our house is 1,392 sq. ft. (Gable Roof). Would appreciate if you would share who you used and any info on what I should look for when deciding who to go with. Thanks so much!

A friend had a new roof installed by McGinnis about 2 years ago for $5,000. It was a villa with about 1,200 SF. One thing that could affect the price is if there is a valley on the roof or whether it is a hip roof vs a gable. My friend's house was a simple gable roof.

Materials went up ! Decking, shingles the new prices will have a noticeable increase! The day of the 6000.00 roof is gone! And that was a hit job

I used Batterbee Roofing and OC Dimension shingles on a hip roof (31 sq). I could have paid $11- 12,000 with someone else, but I paid $14,900 for the Owens Corning/Batterbee transferable guarantee, plus this OC shingle/roof system will stand up to 160 mph winds. Once I get the wind test results, my homeowners insurance will be lowered. I figured that was way to go.

AI went with Batterbee Roofing. I could get a good roof installed my another contractor for $10-12K, but Batterbee offers a roofing system with a lifetime transferable guarantee for the Owens Corning shingle. It was more expensive ($14,900) but I feel it's worth it. Batterbee claims the roof will withstand 160 mile per hour winds. When I get the wind test results, I'll submit them to my homeowners insurance company and obtain a rate deduction. Roofs are a big deal here in Florida I thought this was the best way to go.

A different state. We needed a roof. I asked a,"friend," who I knew had just gotten a roof. He gave me rave reviews on the guy he used. He was actually more than Lowes or Home depo. But, my,"friend," told me he was the best. I signed with his guy. The work was terrible. He left us with a leaking roof. I took him soo long to correct the problem that it damaged our real plaster. He refused to fix the damage. After the job was done we got a letter that if we send him other customers he would pay us, I think it was $500. If, your roof is not leaking, look up the best time to get a roof done in Florida. When they are busy, you will pay top dollar. Imagine doing a roof when it is 100 degrees and 90 percent humidity. |

If it is not broke don’t fix it! Beware of the free roof inspectors! Good luck.When you do have a roof done take lots of pictures before during and after.
