Soffit refers to the horizontal underside of the eaves of a building's roof. It is typically made of wood, vinyl, or aluminum, and it serves several purposes, including:

• Ventilation: Soffits are often vented to allow air to circulate through the attic and help prevent moisture buildup and mold growth.
• Aesthetics: Soffits can be painted or stained to match the color of the house, and they can help to create a finished look at the eaves of the roof.
• Protection: Soffits can protect the eaves from water damage and help to keep pests out of the attic.
• Insulation: In some cases, soffits can also be insulated to help keep the attic and the rest of the house warm in the winter and cool in the summer.

Soffits are an important component of a building's roofing system and need to be regularly inspected and maintained to ensure that they are functioning properly and not showing any signs of wear or damage. Damaged soffits can allow water to penetrate into the attic, which can lead to costly repairs, as well as mold and other issues.

The roofing industry involves the installation, repair, and maintenance of roofs on residential and commercial buildings. Materials include asphalt shingles, clay and concrete tiles, and metal and wood shakes and shingles. In addition to traditional roofing services, some companies also offer services such as gutter installation and repair, skylight installation, and solar panel installation.

The sales process for roofing services typically begins with an inspection, during which the roofing contractor visits the customer's property to assess their roofing needs. This may include inspecting the condition of the existing roof, discussing the customer's budget and desired materials, and making recommendations for repairs or replacement.

Once the customer has decided on the services they would like to receive, the contractor will provide a detailed estimate outlining the cost of the work and the materials to be used. Once the estimate is accepted, the contractor will schedule the work to be completed.

After the work is completed, the contractor will conduct a final inspection with the customer to ensure that the work has been completed to their satisfaction. The customer will then make the final payment, and the contractor will provide a warranty for the work.

Overall, the sales process for roofing services is focused on building trust and credibility with the customer, providing a detailed estimate and explanation of the work, and ensuring that the customer is satisfied with the final product.

Damaged roofs cause roof leaks, which creates a dangerous water and moisture problem in the house below. Whether the roof damage was caused by hail or fallen trees, to simply granule loss due to aging roof shingles, prompt attention and repair will avoid further, more costly damage down the road.

The pricing for new roofs depends primarily on the square footage of the roof surface, the type of material you choose (asphalt, metal, cedar shakes, tile, etc.), and the complexity of your roof (dormers, steep angles, etc.) Because we've been installing new roofs in the [company,data=servicearea] area for years, we have the experience and resources to help you decide on a quality roof solution that will suit your budget.

When you decide it's time to consider a new roof, consider first your budget and your goals. Metal roofs tend to last longer than asphalt shingles, but they cost more upfront and may not "fit in" with the neighborhood. Asphalt shingles are an affordable option, but even in that arena, there are choices that will determine the overall aesthetic and potential lifespan of the roof. Consulting a roofing contractor to help you make these choices is best. They'll have the experience to help guide you toward the best result.

Not every home is eligible for solar, so cross your fingers. Let's hope you're one of the lucky ones and you can save money. There are three main factors:

Number one is called "sun exposure" - does your roof (or the location of your solar panels) get enough access to the sun? One of the things we'll do is analyze your sun exposure from satellite images and other technology to make sure that you've got what's called "proper solar access". There's a percentage we're looking for which, as long as you've got that, you're good to go.

Number two is orientation. What direction would your panels be facing? Ideally, we would want the panels facing South or West, since that is where the most sunshine hits. So you're looking for the right sun exposure; you're looking for the right orientation.

And then there's just number three. Are there any structural issues with your house or roof that would make it difficult to mount solar panels? And if it turns out that it doesn't work for solar, no harm done, you got educated, and you know it is what it is. But that's the reason why I encourage you to reach out and get a no-cost proposal from us so we can actually do the hard work of analyzing your property and show you exactly how much money you can save by going solar.

So what happens when you sign an agreement to go solar with us? Actually, the agreement is the hardest part! Once you sign your agreement, we do the rest. We will assign you a dedicated project manager that will keep you posted through every step of your project.

First, we will schedule your site survey. Next, we create the design that gets submitted to the City to receive a construction permit. Once the permit is received, we schedule your installation, which typically takes 1-3 days depending on the size of your system. After we finish installing the solar system on your house, we schedule the city inspector and/or your utility company to approve the installation and give you what is called "permission to operate", or PTO. Once you have PTO, we power on your system, and you can enjoy clean power for your home from sunshine. The whole process typically takes 30-60 days. However, much of that time is simply waiting for permits, inspectors, and the like.
