New Roof Questions. (New England)
Hello:
Live in New England. Looks like we need a new roof. Know nothing about roofs. What type of roof shingle should we be interested in ? Brands that are good ? Any to avoid. I guess these things come in different thicknesses (weights ?). What would be typical for a New England climate. New roof would probably be going on over existing shingles. Is trhere an intermediate layer that is put between them ? I know they sometimes use a metal "ice protection sheet" (not sure of the exact terminology) that goes a foot or so up from the edges. Is this a good thing to have ? What should we be asking the contractor, or what should we be specifying ? Any and all thoughts on would be appreciated. Thanks, Bob |
