A Tar Roof is an out dated system and therefore it is not installed onto many buildings anymore. If your old roof is made of tar and gravel, it is a matter of time before they will need to be replaced. Hydro Stop is a great material to install onto your roof system after you have removed the old tar. Should you wait for the old roof to leak? I would say absolutely not. It is not in your best interest to wait and see. Many business owners have been removing them asap. Please feel free to visit our site for further advice.

Roofing shingles prices have been escalating with the rise of gasoline. Asphalt comes from refined oil which means as the price of oil rises so does the cost of shingles. Many roofing contractors have advised homeowners that they can get a metal roof system just as cheap which last upwards of 80 years. Today’s market is unstable when considering a new roof system. Be sure to consider a metal roof which is cheaper than an asphalt roof. GAF shingles may be on sale come the winter season. Good luck in getting a new roof.

Your roof vents are the lifeblood of your roof system. If you have poor ventilation, your roof system will fail prematurely. The sun will cause the ceramic granules to break free of the tar matting. This causes the shingles to become porous and will begin to leak over a period of time. Do not fall suspect to poor roof ventilation. Have a contractor to look at your present ventilation system. Owens Corning has a great solution for roof ventilation problems. Be sure to use the horizontal style for it works more efficiently.
