We Answer Frequently Asked Questions About Commercial and Residential Roofing

1. How do I know if I need a new roof?

Signs you may need a new roof include missing or curling shingles, frequent leaks, water stains on ceilings, granules in your gutters, and roofs over 20 years old. We offer free roof inspections to assess your roof’s condition and provide honest recommendations.

2. How much does a new roof cost?

The cost varies depending on the roof size, material (shingle, metal, TPO, etc.), slope, and other factors.  We provide free, Instant Online Estimates with no obligation.  Give it a try!

4. How long does it take to replace a roof?

Most residential roof replacements take 1–2 days. Larger or more complex roofs may take longer. We always aim for minimal disruption and clean up thoroughly afterward.

5. Do you offer financing or insurance claim assistance?

Yes. We work directly with homeowners and insurance companies to streamline claims and ensure you're fully covered. Financing options are also available with low monthly payments for qualified customers.

6. What roofing materials do you offer?

We install architectural shingles, slate, standing seam metal roofing, TPO, PVC, and other commercial-grade systems. Our experts help you choose the best material for your needs, budget, and aesthetic goals.

7. How long will my new roof last?

Asphalt shingles typically last 20–30 years, metal roofs 40–70 years, and flat commercial systems vary from 20–30 years with proper maintenance. Manufacturer warranties and workmanship warranties vary—ask us about our available coverage options.

8. Is roof maintenance necessary?

Absolutely. Regular maintenance extends the life of your roof, helps detect minor issues before they become costly, and are generally required to keep your warranty valid. We offer affordable annual maintenance plans.

9. Will my homeowners insurance cover roof damage?

Insurance typically covers storm damage from wind or hail but not general wear and tear. If you suspect damage, we’ll provide an inspection report you can submit to your insurance company—and we can help you navigate the claim process.
