I’m not a roofing contractor so I’ve posted this in the general roofing discussion. I am on the board of directors of a small condominium building. The building is wood-frame construction and has a flat (i.e. low-slope) roof. We have an opening through the roof for a roof hatch. From this...

Help - what are our options? The new metal panels for our roof arrived and they are the wrong color. This is for a remodel. The house has a darker brown metal roof and we requested the new roofing material to match. The color that arrived is a very light grey/tan color and can appear almost...

Could someone give us any insight into what’s going on here please? We’ve had some builders doing a small extension on our house and they are saying there is nothing wrong with this felt roof. Aside from missing the lead flashing, it just doesn’t look correct to us. It looks very.. patchy?

Hi all - Some advice needed on oceanfront roofing in a harsh area. This is for a home in New England. It's directly on the coast, sitting in the open air, above rocks. In fact, on a day with high surf, you can watch the salty spray wash up over the existing house -- which is about to be demo'd...

Just curious what you guys think about pipe flashing. Do you prefer to use a round base, or a square base. Is it just preference on looks for you or why do you prefer your choice?
