FAQs
Does the company provide a free written estimate?
We will provide an estimate in writing which includes the materials to be used on the job, the work steps involved, the cost and any other relevant information pertaining to your roof. We will also include a copy of all appropriate insurance papers, several sheets of references and a complete list of our terms and warranties.
Do you provide customer references?
Premier Roofing offers a list of references from dozens of customers that includes names and phone numbers. We do not edit or cherry-pick our referrals so any of our previous customers may be included at any time on our referral lists.
What can I do about preventing ice dams or ice back-up?
Understanding why your roof is prone to this phenomenon will help determine the level of success you can achieve in alleviating it. Although each house is different, they all can benefit from following as many of these steps as are practical and financially feasible. The first step should be to install a vapour barrier above the warm space of the house. Second, the attic should be properly insulated. Third, adequate ventilation in the form of both roof vents and soffits (eave vents) should be provided to allow an escape for any remaining heat. In some rare cases where the problem is structural it may not be financially viable to redesign or rebuild the roof. In these cases, keeping it free of snow and ice may be your last best defence. Knowing this does not necessarily mean that you should grab your ladder, shovel and axe! The risk of falling or damaging your roof is very serious concern, and such work should be left to a licensed, insured roofing company.
What is a roof deck?
A roof deck is the sheathing upon which the membrane and shingles are installed. Generally it is plywood overlaid on roof trusses (the beams that hold your roof up) but in older homes it can also be boards or tongue-in-groove wooden planks.
What if my entire roof deck is substandard?
Rarely does an entire roof deck need replacing. However, in some cases visual concerns (rolling or waviness) or dry rot may not be obvious until the removal of the existing roofing materials. This situation is the exception rather than the rule, but should it occur, the homeowners will be apprised of the situation immediately and all options will be discussed and agreed upon. Fortunately a qualified roofer can usually determine if a new deck is necessary prior to the removal of the existing roof.
