Woodland Roofing Company

The Yancey Family, Serving Sacramento Since 1888

It is no secret that materials play an important role in the longevity of a roof. But did you know that a roof also requires adequate ventilation? A roof that is not properly vented is vulnerable to moisture buildup.

This can jeopardize the lifespan of your roof as well as affect the comfort levels within the home. A Woodland roofing company can install these types of vents for your roof:

Static vents
Power vents
Long Ridge vents
Soffit vents
Gable vents

A Woodland Roofing Company Has the Right Vent For You

Static vents, also known as louvers, are named such because they have no working parts. They are generally installed near the ridge of a roof. They are typically very inexpensive and a favorite among many roofing contractors.

Power vents are motorized fans that push moisture and hot air out of the attic. These can come with a thermostat or humidstat, which turn it on when it reaches certain temperature or humidity levels in the attic. These are best used along with intake vents along the eaves or soffit areas.

Yancey Home Improvements is an Owens Corning™ Preferred Contractor roofing company.

Ridge vents, as the name indicates, are installed along the ridge of the roof. They come in non-shingle over or shingle-over vents. Shingle-over types are less noticeable, as the vent is covered in the same shingles on the rest of the roof. Combined with soffit ventilation, these are the most effective in providing a more even distribution of temperature.

Soffit vents are located in the eaves and overhangs of a house. They are most often constructed from PVC or aluminum. These vents perform well on their own and are often combined with other types of vents. They may also be called intake vents.

Gable vents are found on the ends of the home in the peak of the roof line. Used without intake vents, they rely on wind direction and speed to function as both intake and exhaust vents. Therefore, if no additional ventilation products are used, light winds may not be able to adequately cool the attic area.

“I need a total bathroom remodel, and everyone at Yancey has been a delight to work with. All my questions have been answered, the choices of materials were abundant, and Scott guided us expertly through the process one step at a time. I would highly recommend them!”

Laura Powell

“Yancey was awesome to work with. My estimator was Brian Speaks, and he made the entire experience simple and enjoyable for us. There was no high pressure sales, and Brian went out of his way to make sure we got exactly what we wanted and needed. His pricing was fair, and he helped us get financing right on the spot. If I would provide more than 5 stars, I would.”

Ryan Calderwood

“Tommy was very helpful in explaining the roofing process and itemizing the pricing. He was upfront and honest about policy and interpreting the contract for my mother and I. We are a house full of women and we are always worried about being taken advantage of price-wise but we were not treated that way. Thank you for the excellent service and stunning new roof!”

Caroline H

“I chose Yancey for my reroof because of their business longevity. They've run into every situation imaginable and Brian addressed these concerns in the contract. Being told in advance is an explanation, being told after the fact is an excuse. They gave no excuses. The team working was always on time and did exceptional quality work with dry rot repair. The roof looks great and I expect it to work well for years to come.”
