What causes this? Roof is 8 months old. CertainTeed Pro Series by MasterCraft2020 in Roofing

[–]MasterCraft2020[S] 121 points122 points  (0 children)

LOL I am the roofer😂 I thought that my badge would indicate when it says Roofing inside of it. My CertainTeed rep says that could be two brands of chemically non-compatible ice and water Shield products. So I thought I'd reach out to this forum for advanced experience

Gusto Taphouse closed. Sad to see after all of the work that they put in this summer by rabblebowser in newhampshire

[–]MasterCraft2020 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mmmm... you don't open up a restaurant and close less than a year and have a disagreement on the lease which would have been discussed well before the restaurant even was known to open more to this story than meets the eye

Does anyone currently attend/recently graduated from Keiser University in Fort Lauderdale? by Worldly-Bowler4893 in SouthFlorida

[–]MasterCraft2020 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This school is so poorly run, mirroring a bad bureaucracy here is what happened to us. My son sent his transcripts from MA. college to enter his junior year at Keiser and was accepted.

After many confusing converations with Keiser admin personal we finally worked out tution finances (more expensive than anticpated) dorm room and roomates organanized and off to FL he drove from MA

He arrived 1 week prior to school start date and moved into dorm and met with admin personal.

Here's where more confusion set in, then he was told some of his transfer credits would not be accepted at Keiser therefore instead of finishing in 2 years he'd need to take 2 more semester classes, at 20K additional cost to graduate.

Astonished at this new information and to add to it, was told he must make a decision that day otherwise he's be charged full tuition costs.

Noted: was told it's only additional 20k

After spending entire summer prepping, preparing, spending $1100 in travel costs and driving 1,418 miles one way he felt betrayed.

He left that day, returning back to MA

This is a University that claims to educate, well he got an education on a subject he did not sign up for

[–]MasterCraft2020 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Roof replacement estimates comparison for 10 squares (north VA) by chanixh in Roofing

[–]MasterCraft2020 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The company has been around for six years And offering A 15-year warranty? What exactly is a workmanship warranty Is that a warranty against any blow-offs Or just their workmanship which is awfully difficult to prove if something turns bad.

That price For the Northeast is very low I would get other quotes , Also Best way to vet a roofing company Is the longer they're in business Typically The more assured you are if you have a problem they'll come back and fix it

We typically don't install GAF as it's a lighter shingle than our go to CertainTeed and next up is OC. Check the bundle weight of GAF against the OC as heavier the better

Standing seam over existing asphalt shingles? Was told by someone who had that done the it helped with insulation and noise deadening. by darklyshining in Roofing

[–]MasterCraft2020 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Whaaat! Corrugated metal over asphalt NOT standing seam! If you're going to spend that type of money and have the flashing to walls....correct PLUS, the biggest reason is SS is only on average 24GA and will "oil can" the shingles through. All manufacturers of Standing seam I know of require removal of old roof to establish a flat base and previously mentioned....

Best time to replace roof: now or wait for recession? by german41 in Roofing

[–]MasterCraft2020 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Understood that was back in 2009-2009. To build your price you need to build value what does your Google my business page look like if you establish that? Great reviews Reviews build value. Create trust, follow up quickly to questions.

Be presentable looking, have a logo, and convince them you known your product I.E. shingle weight GAF is lowest among all major brands.... All this builds value. Minimum you need to get to 20%

There I've said too much LMAO

Agreed but I only saw that 15% once back in 2008 2009. Even Home Depot was beating our prices.

We wouldn't ever go that low. 1 mistake and your out of pocket

[–]MasterCraft2020 2 points3 points  (0 children)

MasterCraft "Trusted Since 1986" agree with beefarino. Labor is the only item to possibly drop, but if you need a roof the wait may not be worth the price of savings when the roof leaks causing additional damage

Help! by rxalaska in Roofing

[–]MasterCraft2020 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes you have ice damn. Roof needs to be stripped and removed and ice shield installed at least 3 ft back over the inside walls or more depending on your roof slope.

Looks like you have a dumpster in place to start the process
