Quality Roofing Matters

Tony Whittemore takes pride in the quality roofing he and his employees provide. The company has a proud family history as they have been in business for 40 years. Now the owner of Whittemore Roofing, Tony has perfomed the roofing work for over 20 years. His Father, Jack Whittemore, recently retired from the business. Whittemore Roofing guarantees their workmanship, a feature that customers should be sure of when selecting a company that performs work on your home. "It's worth the investment to purchase quality supplies," said Tony Whittemore. A choice shingle is a timberline from GAF with a 30 year rating, he advised. The shingle known for its rugged, dependable performance also has a visually pleasing texture to the look of the roof.

These shingles are designed to withstand 80 mile per hour winds, and "They stay on better, and look better," Tony said. He tries to purchases all his supplies locally to help keep our local economy moving. Though many companies use a very thin 15 lb. paper, he recommends a quality 30 lb. roofing paper, providing extra protection against the elements.

Whittemore Roofing customers have found it worth a slight wait to have assurance of quality workmanship performed and guaranteed by professional installers. Peace of mind is valuable when it comes to getting quality workmanship. Free estimates are provided for roof repair, tear-off, new roof construction, tin roof, flat torch, or any other roofing need. Generally Whittemore Roofing bids the whole job, shingles, paper, and labor.

With summer in full force, and many doing home improvement, some folks begin looking closer at their home, and decide to replace roofs. Some are reluctant to remove old shingles. It is better to tear off than roof over. The heat builds up and instead of getting the typical life-time of a shingle it is significantly reduced. So while it may seem more economical at the time, the reduced life and the later removal of two layers makes doing it properly worth the cost.Proper attic ventilation is a crucial factor in a long-lasting roof system. Whittemore Roofing does install these and other roofing products.

A new roof can offer a facelift to a home. With the wide selection of colors available it can make a house appear brand new. Whittemore Roofing will gladly provide references as needed.

It is good advice to know your roofer, know the materials that you will be getting, and make sure the company will be here down the road, should you need them. Peace of mind is valuable when it comes to getting quality workmanship. Tony lives in Lafayette with his wife Catina. He has three sons: Anthony Whittemore, Jonathan Whittemore, and Landon Whittemore.
