How to judge roofing work

A roof is the one system that protects every other part of a building, which is why the way a contractor inspects matters more than the brochure. A thorough look covers flashing, penetrations, valleys and decking — not just the field of shingles — because that is where water actually finds its way in.

Roof lifespan depends more on installation quality and attic ventilation than on the material alone. Poor ventilation cooks shingles from underneath, and incorrect nailing patterns void many manufacturer warranties. The useful questions to ask any roofer are about process and sequence, not only price.

Typical lifespan ranges by roofing material (industry averages; actual life depends on climate, ventilation and installation quality)
Material	Typical lifespan	Notes
Asphalt shingle	15–30 years	Most common; ventilation strongly affects service life
Metal	40–70 years	Standing seam generally outlasts exposed-fastener panels
Clay or concrete tile	50–100 years	Underlayment usually needs renewal sooner than the tile
Slate	75–150 years	Weight requires adequate framing capacity
Single-ply membrane (flat)	20–30 years	Seams and terminations are the usual failure points

What customers say

I had a great experience with New Look Roofing. From the beginning, Colin was professional, knowledgeable, and easy to work with. He took the time to explain the entire process, answered all of my questions, and kept me informed every step of the way.

Brandon and Mason came out almost right after I called for a minor issue with a roofing tile. They were extremely polite, knowledgeable, and made sure that I was aware of what was going on. Would recommend these guys to anybody with roofing needs!

Julian West and his team did a wonderful job putting my new gutters on! I went with the color he recommended and he was right…they are beautiful!! He told me they probably wouldn’t be able to get to them until next week and they showed up this morning almost a week early!! I’ve never had that happen before! It only took about 3 hours and the clean up after was perfect other than the new gutters you would never know a major job had taken place. I want to thank them for such care and attention to my property!! I couldn’t be happier with the end results (I had a couple of bird nests with babies and eggs in them and they even put them back in place 😊). I will be recommending them to anyone I know in need of the services they provide!!! If I could give more than 5 stars I would!!
