Roofing

Thinking of re-roofing your house? Do your homework. Sun, salt air, wind and storms necessitate having a sound roof on your coastal home, particularly if you're near the ocean. In recent years, metal roofs have become increasingly popular in this area. Properly installed, a metal roof should last as long as the house, completely sealing out water and surviving high winds. Metal is resistant to fire, mildew, insects and rot. But maybe you prefer shingles, which are made of wood (shakes), asphalt, laminated fiberglass, clay or plastic tile, or slate, each with its own merits. Hurricane clips are required on new home construction and strongly advised for structures on or close to the beach. Unless you're experienced at roofing, you probably should not tackle the job yourself. We have roofing specialists to do it for you, but please research potential companies or individuals before you hire them. Get references, go to look at work they've done and check them out with the Better Business Bureau of Coastal Carolina.EGF 06-27-08
