June 2013 - Residential Roofing Services | Fairfax, Arlington, VA

Your crew did a great job just as I thought they would. Everything cleaned up and neatly done. I must tell you, because of the good workmanship, you will be doing my new roof job, on the house and the barn. I wanted to thank you and your crew for the good job.

Another nice job – you did our former townhouse. We have recommended you for many years.

Excellent workmanship. We feel your employees did a good job and had a very good attitude – especially the young man who did the back flat roof and the final cleanup. As you know, I used you and your service once before – about 30 years ago.

BLACK OR WHITE SHINGLES

Posted on June 5, 2013 by Betsy Pond

As roofing contractors, we are frequently asked whether there is an energy difference in shingling with white or black shingles.

There is no appreciable effect on energy consumption because we live in a moderate climate zone. Attic
