While most roofing companies think that a roof is just a roof, at Gikas roofers we take our work very seriously. We drive by and see houses that we get excited to work on. We enjoy every minute of your project from the initial consultation to the final piece of trim.
Please take this opportunity to spend some time viewing our work page. You will be able to see all of the fine detail we put into our work.
1.What warranty do you offer for your roofing services?
Our roofing warranty is 40 years on our standard roofing services. We care deeply about the quality of our work and the outcome our clients can expect from our services. When you hire us to repair or replace your roof, we guarantee it for 40 years. That’s almost the lifetime you can expect from your roof altogether.
2.My roof leaks. Will I have to have it replaced?
Obviously, a leaking roof can be seriously damaging. However, it doesn’t automatically mean you need to have your roof replaced. But, rainwater leaking into your home can cause long-lasting damage that does eventually warrant a full roof replacement. Your safest bet is to talk to a professional and get clarity on whether you need a minor repair or if you require an entire roof replacement. One of the reasons is, there are multiple reasons why your roof is leaking. Inspecting your roof periodically to look for common warning signs is critical to stopping serious damage to your roof and home. While you can do this yourself, it is far better to hire a professional to do this for you at least once every 12 months.
To understand which way we need to follow in order to repair your roof , we need to understand what kind of problem we have to face. We must by no means rush to remove the roofing material until all communications, water and sewer pipes have been checked.
If all is well, then we should pay attention to the roof sealing, you should check for surface contamination or some chips. When we are looking at flat roofs, in Montclair roofing it is not uncommon to have displacement of the roof, which has negative consequences to the whole construction.
Covering the roof with tiles may be the best option for protecting any building provided that its design and placement of the tiles follow certain basic rules.
The tightness of the roof is ensured by the slope and of course by the condition and quality of the tiles. The minimum slope required depends on the climatic conditions of the area, the orientation of the building and the dimensions of the roof (length and especially width). In any case, the slope of the roof with the tiles installed should not be less than 30%. Overlapping tiles reduce the slope by 8%, which must be taken into account for the final result.
Of course, you should know that the roof must be thermally insulated with insulating duvet or boards. If the space under the roof is a functional space of the house, the position of the thermal insulation is at the level of the paid. If it is an uninhabited space, then the thermal insulation is placed at the level of the roof of the top floor.
The thermal insulation layer is preferably accompanied by a water vapor barrier or has such a material built-in. In the first case, the ventilation of the roof is ensured if a small gap of at least 2 cm is left between the tile coating and the thermal insulation material. The gap is achieved with the proper application of the blocks that support the false ceiling, on which the quilt rests or the insulation boards themselves are nailed.
To prevent moisture and snow from entering the residential attic, it is necessary to apply a waterproofing curtain between the payroll and the support beams of the tiles. It is necessary to have a ventilation gap between the curtain and the ceramic coating. If the curtain is a flexible sealing mantle, then it can be applied loosely. We, Montclair roofing fix it at the points between the payers and the beams, while at intervals it is allowed to create burning arrows of the order of 4 to 5 cm. If the curtain is rigid, then it is kept at a distance from the beams by applying intermediate auxiliary beams perpendicular to first. The ventilation gap is not sufficient for proper ventilation of the roof unless special tiles or ventilation sections are provided at regular intervals in the roof covering.

The partial installation of the roof from scratch, should not take much, because in a wooden house the roof elements will deteriorate quickly. To replace the old roof, if it has disintegrated or started to leak, we can build a new one or make a partial repair.
In houses, the improvement and major repairs will be permanent. In order to change such a thing, you will need to rebuild the house into a partially residential one, for which it is screwed with bricks and a new, reliable roof is being built and new gutters are installed.
