Frequently asked questions
What are the most common signs my roof needs repair or replacement?
Look for missing or curled shingles, leaks, water stains on ceilings, mold growth, or sagging rooflines. A professional inspection can determine the extent of the damage and whether a repair or full replacement is needed.
How long does a typical roof installation take?
Most residential roof installations take 1–3 days, depending on the size of the home, weather conditions, and roofing material. We provide a detailed timeline and keep you informed throughout the process.
What’s the difference between asphalt shingle roofing and metal roofing?
Asphalt shingles are cost-effective, easy to install, and come in various styles and colors. Metal roofing is more durable, energy-efficient, and can last 40–70 years, making it a great long-term investment.
What is modified bitumen roofing and where is it used?
Modified bitumen roofing is a durable, weather-resistant material ideal for low-slope or flat roofs. It's commonly used on commercial buildings and some residential additions due to its strength and flexibility.
Can new siding improve my home’s energy efficiency?
Yes. Modern siding materials often include insulation that helps regulate indoor temperatures, reduces energy bills, and increases your home's overall efficiency and comfort.
Do you offer window installation, and how can new windows benefit my home?
We install energy-efficient windows that improve curb appeal, reduce outside noise, and lower heating and cooling costs. New windows can also increase home value and security.
What types of gutters do you install, and why are they important?
We install seamless aluminum gutters, which are durable and low-maintenance. Gutters help direct rainwater away from your home’s foundation, preventing erosion, basement flooding, and structural damage.
How soon should I schedule an inspection after a storm?
We recommend scheduling an inspection within 24–72 hours after a major storm. Even minor damage can lead to costly repairs if left untreated, and early documentation helps with insurance claims.
Can you help with the insurance claim process after storm damage?
Yes, we guide you through the entire insurance claim process—from inspecting the damage and providing estimates to working directly with your adjuster. Our goal is to make sure you get the coverage you deserve.
