OUR REVIEWS

Our goal is not only to provide our clients the best customer care and service, but to also build strong and professional working relationships.

How to Decide When to Replace Your Roof

  • Leaks are one of the most common reasons for roof replacement. Small leaks can sometimes be repaired, but extensive leakage usually calls for a replacement.

  • The age of your roof is also an excellent way to decide if it’s time for a replacement. Roofs older than 20 years are probably reaching the end of their lifespan.

  • If you notice any curling shingles, it’s almost always a sign that the roof needs to be replaced. Curling shingles can quickly lead to substantial leaks.

  • If you have an asphalt roof and notice granules missing in any section, you may need to replace your roof. If it’s localized damage, it may be repairable, but otherwise, a replacement is in order.

Benefits of Roof Replacement

  • Increased Property Value and Curb Appeal

    A new roof dramatically transforms a home's exterior appearance while boosting its market value significantly. Our previous clients report up to 70% return on investment after completion. The fresh, uniform look creates an impressive first impression for visitors and potential buyers alike. Beyond aesthetics, modern roofing materials come in diverse styles and colors that complete any architectural design. This investment stands as one of the most impactful exterior improvements homeowners can make, instantly revitalizing the entire property's appearance.

  • Improved Energy Efficiency and Insulation

    Modern roofing systems incorporate advanced materials and techniques that substantially reduce heating and cooling costs. The comprehensive installation process addresses ventilation issues and eliminates thermal transfer points, keeping interiors comfortable year-round. Our clients typically notice a 15-25% reduction in utility bills following roof replacement. The improved insulation maintains consistent indoor temperatures, reducing the workload on HVAC systems and extending their operational lifespan. With rising energy costs, this benefit provides ongoing financial advantages throughout the roof's service life.

  • Enhanced Protection from Harsh Weather

    Contemporary roofing materials offer superior resistance against severe weather conditions including heavy rainfall, snow accumulation, strong winds, and intense sunlight. The unified, intact surface prevents water infiltration that causes internal damage and mold growth. Advanced wind ratings on our materials withstand gusts exceeding 130 mph in many cases. This robust weather barrier forms the primary defense system for the entire structure, protecting everything beneath it from environmental threats. The peace of mind during storm season represents one of our clients' most appreciated benefits.

  • Reduced Risk of Structural Damage

    Aging or compromised roofs often lead to water seepage that gradually weakens critical structural components including rafters, joists, and wall frames. Replacement eliminates existing vulnerabilities and addresses hidden damage before it progresses further. Our comprehensive inspection process identifies trouble spots that might otherwise remain undetected until extensive repairs become necessary. The new roofing system incorporates proper flashing, drainage, and moisture barriers that direct water away from vulnerable areas. This preventative approach avoids costly emergency repairs and more extensive damage down the road.

  • Long-Term Cost Savings on Repairs

    The frequency of maintenance calls and patch repairs increases significantly as roofs age past their intended lifespan. These cumulative expenses often exceed replacement costs when calculated over time. New roofing systems come with extensive manufacturer warranties, sometimes extending 30-50 years for premium materials. Our workmanship guarantee provides additional protection against installation-related issues. The predictable, low-maintenance performance of a fresh roof allows for better budgeting and financial planning. Many homeowners experience relief from the constant worry about unexpected roofing emergencies following replacement.

Types of Roofs We Replace

  • Asphalt shingles remain the most popular residential roofing material due to their excellent balance of affordability, durability, and aesthetic versatility. Modern architectural shingles offer dimensional texturing that mimics the look of premium materials at a fraction of the cost. The installation process takes approximately 2-5 days for most homes, minimizing disruption to daily life. Our premium shingle options include enhanced impact resistance for areas prone to hailstorms and wind damage. The vast selection of colors and styles allows homeowners to perfectly complement their exterior color scheme and architectural style.

  • Metal roofing systems provide exceptional longevity, often lasting 50+ years with minimal maintenance requirements. The reflective properties reduce cooling costs substantially during summer months by deflecting solar heat away from the building. These lightweight materials reduce structural strain while withstanding extreme weather conditions better than most alternatives. Our standing seam options eliminate exposed fasteners, creating a sleek modern appearance while improving water-shedding capabilities. The recycled content and complete recyclability at end-of-life make metal roofing an environmentally responsible choice for sustainability-minded homeowners.

  • Clay and concrete tile roofing delivers unmatched elegance and distinctive character to homes, particularly those with Mediterranean, Spanish, or southwestern architectural styles. These materials offer exceptional durability, with lifespans regularly exceeding 50 years in proper conditions. The natural thermal properties provide passive insulation benefits that moderate indoor temperatures year-round. Our installation specialists employ advanced techniques specific to tile roofing that maximize performance and longevity. The dimensional quality and rich color variations create visual depth and interest that enhances architectural details throughout the home's exterior.

The Roof Replacement Process

  • Initial Roof Inspection and Consultation

    Our process begins with a thorough examination of the current roof condition, identifying damage patterns, ventilation issues, and structural concerns. The inspection includes attic evaluation when accessible to assess decking condition and moisture exposure signs. Our representatives discuss timeline expectations, material options, and answer all questions during this important initial meeting. Detailed photo documentation accompanies our findings to provide clear visual reference for decision-making. This complete assessment allows us to develop an accurate project scope and precise cost estimate tailored to each property's specific needs.

  • Selecting the Right Roofing Material

    Material selection balances numerous factors including architectural style, local climate conditions, budget parameters, and aesthetic preferences. Our experienced consultants offer recommendations based on decades of installation experience in various environments. Samples and product demonstrations help visualize the finished appearance before making final decisions. The discussion covers performance characteristics, maintenance requirements, and warranty details for each option under consideration. This collaborative approach results in informed choices that meet both practical requirements and visual expectations for the completed project.

  • Obtaining Permits and Preparing for Installation

    Our administrative team handles all permitting requirements, submitting necessary documentation to local building departments according to regulations. Project scheduling coordinates material delivery, crew availability, and weather considerations for optimal timing. Property preparation recommendations protect landscaping, vehicles, and outdoor items during the construction phase. A detailed project timeline establishes clear expectations about the process, including contingency plans for unexpected challenges. This thorough preparation phase eliminates common delays and complications before the physical work begins.

  • Tear-Off and Removal of Old Roof

    Complete removal of existing materials exposes the decking for comprehensive inspection and replacement where necessary. Our specialized equipment and techniques minimize property impact while efficiently clearing debris. Protective barriers safeguard landscaping, windows, and exterior features during this messy but crucial phase. Multiple debris containment systems prevent nails and small materials from contaminating the surrounding area. This phase often reveals previously hidden issues that require attention before installing the new roofing system.

  • Installation of Underlayment and New Roofing System

    Premium underlayment materials create a secondary moisture barrier beneath the primary roofing surface. Proper ventilation systems balance airflow to regulate temperature and humidity in the attic space. Our installers follow manufacturer specifications precisely to maintain warranty validity and optimal performance. Critical flashing details receive particular attention at roof transitions, penetrations, and valleys where water issues most commonly develop. This phase represents the core of our craftsmanship, with experienced teams working systematically across the roof surface with meticulous attention to detail.

  • Final Inspection and Clean-Up

    A comprehensive final examination verifies proper installation according to both our internal standards and manufacturer specifications. Magnetic sweeping technology removes any stray fasteners from the property grounds and driveway. All debris gets hauled away, leaving the property in better condition than we found it. Our project manager walks through the completed work with clients, addressing any questions about maintenance or warranty details. This thorough completion process demonstrates our commitment to excellence throughout every phase of the roof replacement journey.
