Top 10 Tips Not to Get Your Roof Ripped Off - Its important to be cautious when hiring a contractor after a severe storm event. Unethical roofing contractors, aka storm chasers, use high pressure sales tactics or advertise their services with no intention of following through. With many of these using abrasive and shady tactics, oftentimes they will demand payment up front and rarely get the job done. Take time to understand who youre dealing with and get the job done right the first time.

Tuesday nights hail storm was so severe in areas that shingles were torn in half and many buildings and homes were dented and damaged. With severe rain and snow in the forecast to continue, many of these damaged surfaces will continue to deteriorate causing interior damage to the property. It is imperative that these areas be repaired immediately, but who do you trust with such a daunting task of ensuring you and your familys most important asset the roof over your head?

Hail, rain, snow and wind are a tumultuous mix especially when combined over a 2 day period as forecasted in the Omaha area. Hail can create dents, cracks and even holes in the outer most surfaces of the roof including shingles, slate, tile and shakes. Once this surface is penetrated, other natural elements like sun, wind and water can work its way to the roof deck and rot the infrastructure including walls, ceilings, insulation and electrical systems causing bigger problems in the interior of the home.

Living under a secure roof is not a luxury; it is a necessity especially with further storms to come. Roof inspections are the best way to calculate damage and are the primary source of initializing a claim. These inspections can lead to accurate quoting on projects and smooth communication with the insurance provider. Mike Cannon, General Manager of Infinity Roofing expresses the importance of hiring local While there are many excellent roofing companies to choose from, there are also just as many bad roofing companies to choose from, companies who will try to take advantage of a storm situation.

Roofing Scam Hits Maspeth

The 104th Precinct is alerting residents within its confines to a scam in which suspects posing as representatives of roofing companies twice visited locations in Maspeth last month and attempted to convince property owners to let them perform repairs.

According to law enforcement sources, the incidents took place in the vicinity of 72nd Place between Grand and 53rd Avenues.

In the first incident, police reported, a male suspect approached an elderly woman outside her home and identified himself as a roofer working on a neighboring home.

Claiming that he spotted damage to the womans home while performing repairs on the adjacent structure, police said, the purported contractor offered to inspect the victims roof. The suspect was reportedly stopped and questioned by neighbors just before the woman allowed him access to her home.

After the man had left, authorities said, neighbors on the block questioned the owner of the property on which the suspect had claimed to perform repairs. They reportedly learned that the property owner did not authorize any work, and that no repairs were made.

On Mar. 22, police learned, a local business was visited by another male suspect who claimed to represent a roofing company working on a neighboring structure.

Reportedly, the man told the business secretary that the owner of the business had contacted him to check the roof for problems.

The secretary responded that neither the business owner was in, nor was she aware of any planned work. Police said the suspect then claimed that he had performed repairs on the business in the past; in reality, it was noted, no such repairs were ever made by the company.

Police urged the public not to let any individual into their home if they have not previously requested their assistance. Suspicious individuals should be reported to 911 immediately.

Roofing Scam Hits Maspeth

KTM Roofing has released new information on their website to help homeowners review their roofs for potential damage.

Atlanta, GA (PRWEB) April 11, 2013

The storm, named Winter Storm Ukko, produced golf ball sized hail around the northwest metro area, including Douglas County and Cobb County. Property damage was visible with many cars being dented, in addition to having windshields and taillights being cracked. In the southern part of the city Fulton, DeKalb and Clayton Counties where impacted. The storm caused delays at Hartsfield-Jackson where officials issued a groundstop and Delta Flight 2133 was routed back to Charlotte, NC. Further south of the airport, Henry County was heavily impacted, particularly among residents in the 30281, 30253 and 30352 zip codes.

"The hail damage from the March 18th storm was severe. Atlanta homeowners are used to hail in the spring, but not hail that is this severe and damaging," explains Tim McLoughlin, President of KTM Roofing. "It is critical to monitor the exterior of your home's roof for signs of hail damage. This damage can rob your home's roof of its intended longevity."

KTM Roofing suggests homeowners look for signs of damage, which include random dents on the roof, which can remove asphalt granules and soften the roof. If direct access to the roof is not possible, they are encouraged to look for asphalt granules at the bottom of the downspouts.

McLoughlin adds, "In times of weather damage like this you want to be cautious of storm chasers that go door to door soliciting business. Georgia does not regulate the roofing industry as compared to other states, so it is on the homeowner to perform due diligence in researching a company and its background."

Homeowners that have suffered weather damaged can contact KTM Roofing for a quote. KTM Roofing performs repair and replacement services. For details, visit http://www.ktmroofing.com or call 678-565-7663.

Remedy Roofing, One of the Most Trusted Names in Roofing, is Working Hard to Pave the Way for a More Energy-Efficient Future.

Pittsburgh, PA (PRWEB) April 09, 2013

As energy prices have escalated, more and more homeowners are looking for ways to cut down on their power bill. Builders now take great pride in offering the most energy efficient homes to help their buyers lower their utility bills, but people living in existing and less efficient homes are now looking for ways to make up for this. Remedy Roofing can help with a new series of energy efficient consultations designed to assist homeowners.

Windows and Doors

One area where older homes can improve energy efficiency is with doors and windows. Single pane windows and storm windows of the past have given way to double- and even triple-pane glass with argon gas filling and superior frames. Remedy Roofing can inform homeowners that by simply changing the windows and upgrading to energy efficient windows allows, they can drastically lower their energy bills. In addition to installing roofs, Remedy Roofing also replaces doors and windows.

Superior Attic Ventilation

Attics must be ventilated to prevent them from overheating. In the summer, trapped heat can damaged shingles and it presses down on the interior of the home and makes cooling more difficult. In the winter, heat migrating up from the house can warm the attic, melt the lowest layers of snow on the roof and result in ice dams. Even if owners are not investing in a new roof, Remedy Roofing can help them by correcting ventilation problems and making the home both safer and more energy efficient.

Insulate the Walls

Homeowners who have been dreaming of new siding can also improve the insulation around their home. With wall exteriors exposed, they can have insulation blown into walls or add foam sheets to make the home more energy efficient. Remedy Roofing Pittsburgh repairs existing siding and also installs new siding.
