WHAT IS ICE & WATER SHIELD?

Ice & water shield underlayment is one the most reliable barriers from leaks on your roof valleys.  The introduction of roofing Ice & Water shield underlayment started over 40 years ago.  Today, the manufacturers are taking the basic elements of the compound. Manufacturers are improving the structure and the composition of the material too. Ice & water shield underlayment works best when the material is installed correctly and in the needed areas only.

WHERE TO INSTALL ICE & WATER SHIELD, DEPENDING ON THE REGION

Roofing contractors install ice & water shield underlayment using different styles depending on location. For example, Home Evolution is a roofing company located in Albany New York.  Albany gets a lot of snowstorms in the winter. It has customers with ice and snow-related problems. Home evolution applies roofing ice & water shield around the roof perimeters and valleys when they install roofing systems. They also use it around the ventilation pipes, and around the chimney. Roofing companies in Charlotte North Carolina do not face major ice and snow-related roof problems. But we deal with a lot of heat and high winds problems.

INSTALLING ICE & WATER SHIELD

It is important to make sure that roofing ice & water shield underlayment is installed properly. It’s the only way you will obtain the full functionality of the roofing ice & water shield underlayment. First of all, you need to purchase the Ice & water from a roofing supplier that stores the product in a cool area. If the product is not stored in proper temperatures, the adhesive can lose its adhesiveness. The material can also crack when not stored correctly which allow your roof to leak. After getting the material on the roof, peel the release liner from the membrane. Hold the membrane in place with substantial hand weight to secure the position. You will need assistance as it’s best to do this with two people. Have them pull the roofing ice & water shield along the needed area. Lastly, when the material is in place, apply hand pressure throughout the membrane to remove all air bubbles.

Charlotte Ace Roofing always recommends only the best materials.  If you are in a need of free roof estimate or a roof inspection, call Charlotte Ace Roofing at 704-396-8383 and we will answer all your questions and concerns regards roofing.

Roof Maintenance

ROOF MAINTENANCE

It is very important to keep up with proper roof maintenance. Our roofs always get exposed to the rain, sun, wind and snow.  These factors all take a toll slowly to the membrane of the roof until the life of a roof is expired.  Our Roofs need regular inspections done by professional roofing contractors and promoted roof repairs.

BENEFITS OF ROOF MAINTENANCE

You may wonder, what are the benefits of spending money annually to maintain your roof. After a collection of research, it was discovered that a well-maintained roof will most likely outlast its manufactured expected life. In contrast, a poorly maintained roof will last a homeowner half its expected life.

Most people would say “That is why we purchased a warranty.” Don’t think a warranty will help if your roof has not been maintained. Most roofing manufacturers clearly state that if a homeowner doesn’t have proof (Invoices, receipt, estimates) of maintenance, the warranty may be voided.

REGULAR ROOF INSPECTIONS

Experienced homebuilders are well aware and recommend annual roof maintenance. Most homebuilders hire third-party contractors to do the inspection and evaluate the condition of the roof. The initial choice comes down to the cheapest guy to do the roof inspection, hired by the homebuilder. Homeowners are always better off going to an accredited roofing contractor in their area. Charlotte Ace Roofing will provide 3 major issues to be on the lookout when doing a maintenance roof inspection.

1. EXPOSED ROOFING NAILS:

Exposed roofing nails are not easy to see on the roof. Not the case if you are looking at a roof from ground up. Exposed nails will rust. The rusted nail provides a pathway for water to enter your home. Water can get into the attic and eventually into the home. Charlotte Ace Roofing ensures that after each full roof replacement, or roof repair we will caulk all exposed nail with NP1.

2. SUN CRACKING VENTILATION BOOTS:

Cracking roofing boots are caused by a combination of sun exposure, wind storms and hail storms. Over time the sun dries out the rubber causing it to crack. Hailstorms will break off the dried rubber, and the high winds blow it off the roofs. Charlotte Ace Roofing makes an extra effort to put NP1 roofing caulk around the roofing boot and the ventilation pipe. We use a high-grade ice and water barrier to protect the boots from the failing. These measures help ensure extended life on the roofing ventilation pipes.

3. LOOSE GRANULES:

The primary cause of loose granules is foot traffic on the roof caused by other people and hailstorms. When the A/C man is on your roof doing a repair, every step he takes causes granules to loosen. Also, whenever a hailstorm hit roofing shingles, the impact will cause the granules to loosen. Charlotte Ace Roofing offers temporary patches for loosened granules. We also can apply tar to the damaged area if needed. Next, we take loose granules from the gutter and apply them over the concern area. This will work as a temporary fix only.

So, when you need of a free roof inspection just give us a call. We offer the best products and materials, backed up by our 10-year workmanship warranty. We have also been in the roofing business for years, so we know the best solutions to defective roofs. Call for a free estimate 704-396-8383.

Roofers in Charlotte NC

Best Roofers in Charlotte NC

Roofers in Charlotte NC area have been around for decades, helping homeowners with various roofing projects. Today, Charlotte NC has over 500 roofers. With the number of roofers rising in the city and surrounding areas, it must mean two things… 1. the city may be growing or 2. roofing is an easy business to start. Charlotte NC has been getting lots of attention throughout the past couple years. It is attracting people to move to the city. Starting a new roofing company is not an easy process, it involves past roofing experience and knowledge. Here is a list of a few tips to keep in mind when you are looking to pursue a roofing project with a reliable roofer in Charlotte NC.

VERIFY ALL PROMISED CAPABILITIES OF THE ROOFER

Whenever you are ready to hire a roofer in Charlotte NC, you should start by asking your neighbors if they have any recommendations. You should also research the web to see if any local roofing contractors catch your eye. Lastly, make a list of the reliable roofing contractors in Charlotte NC that you like.

After narrowing down your search for the roofing contractor in Charlotte NC, contact the roofer in Charlotte NC and obtain a license number. Using that number, go to www.nclbgc.org and verify that the roofer has a license to work in the state. Not having a license is an automatic invalidation to that roofer. But having a license does not guarantee quality work either.  Quality is the most important in any project, especially Roofing project. To verify quality, you would need to do more research. Check the roofer’s website, look for testimonies from the previous customer.

Most consumers can locate more reviews on YP Yelp, Google places, BBB, and home advisor for both positive and negative reviews. If you stumble on a negative review, always see how the roofing company responded to the review, because there are bad people or competition out there looking for free things or competition looking to stain another roofing company in Charlotte NC area. It’s known for competition to attempt to sabotage other roofers in Charlotte NC to get a higher ranking.

THE LOWEST QUOTE IS NOT ALWAYS THE BEST

BBB recommends homeowners to get at least three quotes from different experienced roofers in Charlotte NC. Looking at all the quotes, if you see a quote that is considerably lower from the rest, you should dispose of it right away. These are a few potential reasons to why a roofer in Charlotte NC may offer low quotes:

  • By keeping the old unavailable plywood enacted on your roof, they can save themselves at least a few hundred dollars, using low-cost materials, and use immature roof installers to do the least hours necessary. What this enables for you is that you will pay less money now, and a lot more in the future to repair your roof. Remember, your roof shingles are only as good as the installation.  You can buy the most expensive roofing shingles, but if you get an improper roof install, you just wasted a whole lot of money.
  • The roofer will show the homeowner a bill with cost overruns that were not voiced in the quote. Honest, experienced, trustworthy roofers in Charlotte NC include an additional percent into the quote, to ensure that any extra materials will not hinder with the original quote on the project.
  • Prior to any roof installation, homeowners are required to put down a down payment and deductible if the job is an insurance claim. In the past, roofing companies would provide an unbelievably high quote and the customers would sign with them. After providing the deductible and down payment the roofing company disappears and you never get a new roof and lose money. That’s what a roofing insurance scam is!

Quality Roofing in Charlotte NC

LOOKING FOR QUALITY ROOFING SERVICES?

Quality roofing services are very hard to find in Charlotte NC area. A lot of roofing contractors don’t know what they are doing, don’t have experience or simply don’t have proper customer service. I say that because I’ve seen a lot of roofers working for a roofing contractor and after some time, they decide that they are knowledgeable enough to go on their own. They do know some things about roofing, but not enough to start a roofing business. So, these contractors lower their prices below average and do a low-quality roof job. I’ve seen a lot of homeowners getting scammed by roofers like that. After being scammed homeowners reached out to us, Charlotte Ace Roofing and we have to fix all the mistakes that unexperienced roofers made.

DO SOME RESEARCH BEFORE HIRING A ROOFING CONTRACTOR

How do you avoid getting scammed by a non-qualified roofing contractor? It’s very easy, simply do some research online. All you need to do is google the name of the roofing company that you want to hire. It’s also a good idea to ask for references. You will be able to read other people’s reviews and experiences with that roofing company. After that, you can decide if you wish to go with this roofing contractor or not. But if the roofing company that you are hiring is nowhere to be found online then I would stay away from that kind of contractor. Most likely it is a company that offers very low-quality roofing services or some kind of scam such as roofing damage insurance scam where they may take the insurance money and do a poor job repairing or replacing your roof.

Slate Roof in Charlotte NC

ARE YOU CONSIDERING SLATE ROOFING?

Slate roofing in Charlotte NC area is eye-catching. It looks amazing and lasts for a long time.  Slate roof is the oldest roofing on earth that is tried and tested.  It has been the most appealingly attractive roofing product of the last 2000 years. 

Slate roofing systems are tested and known for their consistent performance.   Slate roofing is also known for its outstanding seal and leak protection.  Because of its density and tough exterior, it never not leaks. Pure slate is always the optimal choice. But today the roofing industry uses carefully engineered synthetic slate to get the same consistent performance but at a more affordable price.

BENEFITS OF SLATE ROOFING

Slate roofing is fireproof, waterproof and wind resistant. You never have to worry about hiring someone to clean your roof. Slate roofing does not require any cleaning and maintenance is low. Slate roofs last a long time, they are reliable and dependable.

SYNTHETIC SLATE ROOFING

Regular roofs need recurrent maintenance and replacement after about 20 to 30 years. But synthetic slate roofing in Charlotte is nearly maintenance free. Synthetic slate roofs are a lightweight option. You get a carefully crafted synthetic slate roofing material. Which will be displaying rough edges and natural stone -like surface textures. Charlotte Ace Roofing has experience with slate roofing.

CONS OF SLATE ROOFING 

Although slate roofing is a great option, keep in mind natural slate roofs also present some problems. The entire installation process consumes large amounts of labor and fuel. Slate roofing installation can get pricey. It can also be harmful to the local ecosystem, not a green option. Sometimes up to 15% of slate tiles crack or break during installation.  Slate roofing install process may have a lot of waste. The synthetic tiles weigh one-third as much as the natural slate of comparable thickness.  Because of that transportation energy costs, carbon emissions are much lower. 

You should do a lot of research before making the final decision on slate roofing or asphalt shingles. Decide for yourself if you want a slate or a shingle roofing system.  But be very careful with what you choose. You can take a ride and look at some slate roofs in Charlotte NC area.

DOES MY ROOF REALLY NEED RIDGE VENTS?

DOES MY ROOF REALLY NEED RIDGE VENTS?

DO YOU EVER THINK ABOUT YOUR ATTIC?

How many times in the last year have you thought about your attic or your Roof Ridge Vents? If you are like most people, you probably did not think about proper attic insulation! The attic is a place in your home that is most left untouched and if the attic is properly insulated, you can save money on your heating and cooling bill. Most people ignore their attic until they hear a critter crawling around in there or they see water leaks coming through your ceilings. It may be too late and it will mean you need to call an experienced roofing contactor Charlotte Ace Roofing

YOUR ATTIC NEEDS TO BE PROPERLY VENTILATED

Not only does your attic need to be properly insulated, your attic also needs to be properly ventilated. The truth is, we may think that everything is fine in our attic. But an improperly ventilated or insulated attic will slowly cause damage to your shingles and increase your home heating and cooling energy costs.

Having a proper attic ventilation system in your attic will drastically reduce the amount of moisture. It will also help to increase the lifespan of your roof. Too much moisture and trapped heat inside of your attic can cause your shingles to blister. The whole idea behind roof ventilation is to ensure a good and constant stream of air circulation in the attic. It will help reduce the moisture.

ROOFING VENTILATION SYSTEM

Ridge vents are a different type of ventilation system in your attic, and usually they are installed on the peaks of roofs. The purpose of the ridge vent is to allow warm, humid air to slip out from your attic. The ridge vent works with the soffit vents to ensure that the attic gets the best ventilation. In other words, this is what happens when a proper ventilation system is installed. Cold air is introduced through the soffit vents. Once the cold air is in, the heated air accelerates the cold air and it is lifted to the top of the attic. Then, it gets out of the ridge vents, providing a cold roof affect.

TRUSTWORTHY PRODUCTS WE USE.

As your roofing contractor, Charlotte Ace Roofing ensures customers that we use most effective ridge vents. We buy them from reputable manufactures such a GAF. If your home is in need of a roof replacement and especially if you have an older home, contact Charlotte Ace Roofing today for a free, no obligation roofing inspection. Chances are that the air circulation in your roof is insufficient and needs to be fixed. From soffit to ridge vents, you can be sure that we will do everything possible to ensure that your new roof is installed over a surface that is sound, secure and properly ventilated.
