FAQs
General Questions
What does roof maintenance typically include?
Roof maintenance generally involves regular inspections to identify and address minor issues before they escalate. This includes cleaning gutters, removing debris, checking for damaged or missing shingles, inspecting flashing and seals, and ensuring proper ventilation. Consistent maintenance helps extend your roof’s lifespan and prevents costly repairs.
How do you choose a licensed and insured roofing contractor?
Selecting a licensed and insured roofing contractor is crucial for quality and protection. Verify their license status with local authorities and confirm they carry both liability and worker’s compensation insurance. Check customer reviews, ask for references, and ensure they offer written estimates and warranties. This ensures your project complies with regulations and safeguards you against potential liabilities.
What roof repair and maintenance services do contractors offer?
Roofing contractors provide a range of services including leak repairs, shingle replacement, gutter cleaning and repair, inspection services, roof cleaning, flashing repair, and preventative maintenance programs. Many also offer emergency repair services and roof coatings to enhance durability and energy efficiency.
Types of Roofing Materials
What types of roofing materials do you offer and what would perform the best for my home or project?
We offer a variety of different roofing systems and materials to suit your specific project and application. Feel free to look at the different pictures and projects on our website or call us for an in-person or on-the-phone consultation.
Installation Process
What does the roof installation process involve and how long does it typically take to install a new roof?
Typically it takes anywhere from 2 to 5 days to replace a moderate size roof. We have the ability to pull in extra crew members if the project is abnormally large and get things done within that time period. Usually if we are doing a roof during the winter time or with incremental weather patterns, we are very observant of weather forecasts and make sure the home is covered/finished by the time of the rain/etc.
Do I need to be home during the installation?
The main things that we need to be ready to perform a job is access to power plugs, access to the back yards for cleanup or repairs, and full access to the front entrance parking areas. As long as we can secure these items, you will not necessarily need to be home as long as we have a phone number to contact you for questions or emergencies.
Roofing Repairs
How do I know if my roof needs repairs?
There are many different types of situations when it comes to whether a roof needs to be repaired or replaced. We run into improper installation on some projects, or a roof that is so weathered out that to try and repair it might make things even worse. We will provide you our best opinion on what we are able to do whether it is to repair your roof, or offer you an estimate for a full replacement.
What types of roof repairs do you offer?
We pretty much do all types of repairs, including emergency services, flat roofs, tile roofs, metal roofs, commercial and residential roofs, and from time to time, we might even replace a light bulb (who knows?)
How quickly can you respond to emergency repairs?
As soon as we can mobilize. Usually within a day or so, but sometimes same day if we are not too busy.
Costs and Estimates
How do you determine the cost of a roofing project?
We keep up with the material market pricing as well as over overhead, labor costs, and profits to provide you a competitive price. We offer discounts for veterans and elderly folks that we know live on a fixed income. Feel free to consult with us for your specific needs.
Do you provide free estimates?
Yes we do, unless the estimate involves reports that we need to put together for insurance requests, financial institution or property management requests.
What factors can impact the cost of a roofing project?
The type of roofing material you will use whether it is an entry level shingle roofing (90% of residential roofing) or a high end shingle or metal roof. Some market pricing of certain items that we purchase for your roof are sometimes higher cost during the winter.
Warranty and Guarantees
What warranties do you offer on your roofing materials?
We offer warranties of 10yrs to a Lifetime on materials.
Do you provide warranties on your workmanship?
Our standing labor warranty is from 5-10 years to cover any problems that may have been overlooked in the project process.
What is covered by your roofing guarantees?
Material warranties are usually covered by the manufacturer, and our labor warranties are covered by our company. You call us about the problem, and then we take it from there as far as with the material suppliers and/or labor needed.
Insurance and Licensing
Are you licensed and insured?
We are fully licensed and insured. Call us for copies of our license and all insurances and we can provide it to you.
Do you work with insurance claims?
We work with most insurance claims, as long as the work and funding is approved before we start the project.
What should I do if my roof is damaged in a storm?
You will need to first call your insurance so they can send out an adjuster to survey the damages. Then they will request estimates. Then you call us and we provide you a free estimate that you can hand over to your adjuster for approval.
Maintenance Tips
How can I maintain my roof to prolong its lifespan?
One of the best things you can do for your roof is twice a year clean out your gutters and downspouts. Other than that, if there are trees or vegetation hanging over your roof, make sure you get them trimmed before they damage your roof. Also sometimes there is excessive debris that builds up in roof valleys and flat roof areas that need to be cleaned off at least twice a year.
What are the signs that my roof needs regular maintenance?
After wind storms and weather events where leaves and debris gets accumulated on your roof. Also you should always check the gutters, valleys, and low pitch areas of your roof at least once a year in the fall.
Environmental Impact
Do you offer eco-friendly roofing options?
We offer Title 24 compliant and Energy Star rated materials. Saving energy and using sustainable materials, as well as recycling of disposed materials that we can is part of what we try to do to be as eco-friendly as possible.
How can a new roof improve energy efficiency?
Reflective colors and roof materials all add to the energy efficiency of a home. We also offer insulation alternatives and upgrades for you that also can add tremendous energy value to your home. The typical home built around the year 2000 or before has approximately 4-5 inches of insulation. We add an additional 10 plus inches of insulation which makes a huge difference in your energy bills.
We care about you and your property and treat your house as we would ours.
