How to judge roofing work

A roof is the one system that protects every other part of a building, which is why the way a contractor inspects matters more than the brochure. A thorough look covers flashing, penetrations, valleys and decking — not just the field of shingles — because that is where water actually finds its way in.

Roof lifespan depends more on installation quality and attic ventilation than on the material alone. Poor ventilation cooks shingles from underneath, and incorrect nailing patterns void many manufacturer warranties. The useful questions to ask any roofer are about process and sequence, not only price.

Typical lifespan ranges by roofing material (industry averages; actual life depends on climate, ventilation and installation quality)
MaterialTypical lifespanNotes
Asphalt shingle15–30 yearsMost common; ventilation strongly affects service life
Metal40–70 yearsStanding seam generally outlasts exposed-fastener panels
Clay or concrete tile50–100 yearsUnderlayment usually needs renewal sooner than the tile
Slate75–150 yearsWeight requires adequate framing capacity
Single-ply membrane (flat)20–30 yearsSeams and terminations are the usual failure points

What customers say

Driftwood did a terrific job finding and repairing a leak in my metal roof. Nick the owner was very responsive and accommodating and his "metal guy" Guillermo was incredibly thorough and dedicated to solving the problem. He even showed up with his assistant before the work could begin to do a temporary fix until the rain subsided. I can't recommend these guys enough.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Driftwood Roofing did an outstanding job replacing the standing seam metal roof on my home. From start to finish, the entire crew was professional, punctual, and respectful. They arrived on time every day, kept the work area clean throughout the project, and paid attention to every detail. The quality of the workmanship exceeded my expectations, and the finished roof looks excellent. It's clear they take pride in their work and are committed to doing the job right. I highly recommend Driftwood Roofing to anyone looking for a reliable, professional roofing company.

My wife Lulu Flores and I hired Driftwood Builders Roofing with only one reference and on a little bit of faith. But we couldn’t be HAPPIER with our decision. This is a good business run by a stand up young guy named Nick Riley. They were careful and professional and cognizant of our needs. They always let us know when they wanted to come and showed up when they said they would. And they did a first rate job for us. We know because we had our close friend and high end contractor come by to evaluate the work and he gave it a complete thumbs up. They might not be the cheapest but they charged a fair price for their work, and that was what was important to us. Lulu and I recommend them without qualification.
