Expert Profile: david burnett

Expertise:  My expertise is with shingle roofs and all types of repairs connected to roof leaks on homes. Typically these leaks are around pipes, skylights, chimneys, and ridge vents. Other various causes of damaged shingles can be addressed as well. I would not attempt to compare manufacturers products or answer any questions other than what I have described above but would direct those to other more qualified technicians.

Experience in the area
I have been involved exclusively with shingle roof applications for 15+ years full-time. I currently operate a roof repair service where all the work is performed by me personally.

Education/Credentials
High School graduate with three years of Bible College.
