Roof Replacement: Fixing Rotted Plywood and the Importance of Underlayment | Glenside, PA

Roof Maintenance: What, Why, and How
When it comes to properly maintaining a roof, very few homeowners understand what to do, how to do it, or even why they should.

Metal Roofs: What are the Benefits?
As their electric bills continue to raise higher and higher, many homeowners are turning toward energy efficient remodeling. Besides installing energy efficient windows, or vinyl siding, another excellent option is a metal roof.
Metal roofs reflect the sun’s rays, decreasing the need for your air conditioner to run, and can even help make your home more temperate without air conditioning at all. Not only do metal roofs decrease your electric bill, but they’re also a green alternative—they’ll help decrease greenhouse emissions and lower your carbon footprint.
