Roofing FAQs

1How long does a roof replacement take?

Most residential roofs are completed in one day, depending on size, weather, and roof complexity. Larger or more complex roofs may take 2–3 days. We’ll provide a clear estimated timeline before work begins.

2How long will my new roof last?

A properly installed roof typically lasts:

  • Architectural shingles: 30–50 years
  • Metal roofing: 40–70 years
  • Slate: 100-200 years

Lifespan depends on materials, ventilation, weather exposure, and maintenance. ***WE OFFER OWENS CORNING’S PLATINUM PREFERRED WARRANTY, which includes a 50 year warranty on the shingles and 50 years on the workmanship.

3How much does a new roof cost?

Costs vary based on roof size, pitch, material choice, decking condition, and number of existing layers. Most homeowners can expect a range between $7,500–$25,000. We offer free, written estimates with no obligation.

4Will you protect my property and clean up afterward?

Yes. We use tarps, plywood, and protective coverings to safeguard landscaping, siding, and driveways. After installation, we perform a full cleanup, including magnetic nail sweeps, and conduct a final walkthrough.

5Is financing available?

Yes. We offer flexible financing options with affordable monthly payments. Our team will explain available programs and help you choose the best option for your budget.

6Do you handle permits and inspections?

Yes. We handle all required permits and inspections as part of the project, ensuring your roof meets local building codes and manufacturer requirements. All permit fees are added to the final bill.

7Will my homeowners insurance cover my roof?

Insurance coverage depends on the cause of damage. Storm-related damage (wind, hail) is often covered, while normal wear and tear is not. We can help inspect the roof, document damage, and help provide information to your insurance company, but the final coverage decision is made by your insurer.

8What warranties are included?

We provide:

  • Manufacturer warranties covering roofing materials
  • Workmanship warranties covering installation

Warranty details vary by product and system, and all documentation is provided upon project completion. ***WE OFFER OWENS CORNING’S PLATINUM PREFERRED WARRANTY, which includes a 50 year warranty on the shingles and 50 years on the workmanship.

9How do I know if my roof needs to be replaced?

Common signs include:

  • Missing, cracked, or curling shingles
  • Granules in gutters
  • Leaks or water stains inside the home
  • Sagging areas or soft spots
  • Roof age exceeding manufacturer recommendations

A professional inspection is the best way to determine whether repair or replacement is needed.

10What should I do to prepare for roof installation day?

We recommend:

  • Moving vehicles away from the home
  • Removing fragile items from walls and shelves
  • Covering items in the attic
  • Keeping pets and children indoors or away from the work area
  • ***Roofing is noisy, any people or pets who experience noise sensitivity might benefit from sound protection or spending time elsewhere during the project.

We’ll provide a pre-installation checklist so you know exactly what to expect.
