Q. Why is ventilation so important now and not so much 10-20 years ago?
A. Back in the olden days...LOL, when windows and doors were not so insulated and air tight, ventilation was common. When people would say "my heating bills are going through the roof", they literally meant it! Now adays building materials, windows, doors, roofing and siding are a better quality than they were in the past. Better quality also means it keeps the cold air out and the warm air in - which if you think about it, its a lack of interior ventilation. Roof's need to "breath," proper ventilation is paramount.

Q. What makes JJ Construction different from other contractors / construction company's?
A. JJ Construction is a Roofing & Siding Company, NOT a contractor. A Company never takes vacations, calls in sick, or gets a flat tire. A Company is always there for you because they have a quality system in place. If someone is unable to perform their duties there is another certified tech ready to take his place. JJ Construction employs a large amount of personally trained and certified tech's which negates the need for sub contractors.
Q. What's the difference between JJ Construction and a Roofing Contractor?
A. That's exactly right ...a Roofing Contractor. Contractor being the operative word. A Roofing Contractor is 2 salesmen who sell you a roof, make you promises, show a smile, shake your hand and then go call someone else to do the work. Where is the quality control in that? JJ Construction is here for you from start to finish, WE are on the job, not some sub contractor. |
