    Understanding Roof Condensation Solutions

    Similar to how beads of water form on a cool glass of water on a hot summer day, roof condensation occurs when warm, moist air comes into contact with the cooler roof deck.

    Interested in a Roof Warranty? Here's What to Know

    Installing a new roof that will protect your home and family for years to come is a major investment. That's why it's important to have adequate roof warranty protection once the job is complete. While most reputable roofing manufacturers provide basic warranty coverage against manufacturing defects in the roofing materials, it's often better to choose enhanced warranties that also cover installation. These warranties are available through your roofing contractor or manufacturer, and they're transferrable should you sell your house.
