Donna Carpenter - Total Roof System Replacement - June, 2005
Charlotte, NC
" I was glad to get a nice looking new roof ". Her home was a 2 layer tearoff and total decking replacement. Plies in the plywood started seperating and weakened the intergrity of the decking system. We believe it was manufacturer defective plywood and the incorrect installation of the attic insulation. All old decking was removed and new 1/2" decking was installed. 15# roofing felt nailed down and then the 30 Year Elk 3 Dimensional shingles were installed according to the manufacturers specifications. We capped off the ridges with a ridge vent system. Mrs. Carpenter also had a tree close to the roof preventing sunlight from hitting about 40% of the roof area. Which enabled thick moss growth and trapping moisture in between the plywood, felt shingles and attic. This contributed to premature deterioration of the plywwod. We removed the tree at her request.
Bill Palmer - Total Deck and Roof System Replacement - July, 2005 Charlotte, NC
After we finished roofing Mrs. Carpenters home, her neighbor Bill wanted a new roof too. The Carpenter roof job was 30 year Elk Singlesand Bills roof was 40 year Elk Shingles. Both jobs required total deck replacement due to high moisture content in the attic for the last 25 years. From this we know there was improper attic ventilation as well as improper attic insulation installation causing trapped moisture. Bill was happy with the estimate and we begun work a week later. Bills contract called for 30 year Elk shingles. When C & M went to order materials for the job as well as pick up material for another job, our sales rep told us they had a very large order of 40 Year Elk shingles that was the wrong color than a customer had ordered and they could sell us the shingles at $3 more per square than the 30 Year Elk shingles. 40 Year Elk normally cost about $18 more per square so this was a great deal for our customer. Luckily the color of the 40 Year shingles were the same color Bill wanted his 30 year shingle in. We called Bill and told him for $3 more per square we could get him the 40 year shingles. The better the shingles are the more they weigh and so there are more bundles and it takes a more work. We weren't going to charge Bill more on the installation end and we figured he could get a lot better shingle for about $90 to cover the entire roof. Well, Bill is retired. Bill said, I'd like to get the better shingles for such a good deal but I just can't spend anynore on the roof. Bill has to watch his budget. We understood Bills concerns. Being a roofing company and loving our jobs we just couldn't imagine passing up this great deal. We quickly ordered the 40 year Elks and C & M ate the cost. But we didn't mind because we knew to give Bill alot for a little was worth it.
We respect your property and we strive our best to keep tear off materials from going into your yard and damaging landscaping. If possible we try to throw the roofing debris directly into the dump truck or trailer, thus eliminating debris on the ground. This also eliminates labor time. After the job has been completed we sweep the grounds with a high power magnet to remove any strayed nails. We also rake the grounds for any fine debris. When we have no choice but to drop the tearoff materials on the ground we double tarp the area and then do a fine clean up after all is transfered to the dump. We also take extra precuations not to damage your gutters.

A home we installed GAF 30 yr architectural shingles on in Belmont, NC.
The Simpsons say they are enjoying the look of their new roof.
Mr. Simpson said he was so tired of looking at those worn out dis-colored shingles. Now, he has a really nice 25 year GAF 3 diminsional shingle. Since the roofing shingles are fungus free. He won't have to worry about the dis-coloring from the high humidity in Belmont, NC.
We won't use damaged materials. As with any product you are going to have damaged or manufacturers defective materials that got missed during quality control. This can make a significant difference over the life of the roof. When we see defections or damaged materials we let our suppliers know and we do not install them. Like you, we expect what we pay for to be top quality and we will not settle for less especially when your home and our name are on the line.
