Roof Maintenance & Inspections

  • How often should I have my roof inspected?

    We recommend a roof inspection at least twice a year (typically in spring and fall), and also after severe weather events. Regular inspections help catch problems early. 

  • What signs should I look for that indicate my roof needs repair or replacement?

    Look out for:

    • Missing, cracked, curled, or buckled shingles 

    • Leaks or water stains inside your home

    • Granules from shingles collecting in your gutters 

    • Sagging areas or structural issues

    • Damage to flashing around chimneys, vents, or skylights


Leaks, Repairs & Emergencies

  • What should I do if I notice a leak?

    First, try to contain any water (use buckets), and move valuables out of the way. Then contact us to schedule an inspection. Ignoring a leak can lead to more serious water damage. 

  • Do I need to replace the whole roof if there's a small leak?

    Not necessarily. Many leaks are caused by isolated issues (e.g., flashing or a small damaged area). We will assess the roof and recommend repair vs. replacement depending on the condition. 

  • What kind of warranty do you offer on your work?

    We provide a 10-year workmanship warranty on residential and commercial roofing projects. 

Cost & Insurance

  • How much does a roof repair or replacement cost?

    Costs vary depending on your roof’s size, damage, and the materials used. You'll receive a tailored estimate after we inspect your roof. (Roofers typically give a fixed quote—not just a loose "estimate".) 

  • Will my homeowner’s insurance cover the cost?

    It depends on your policy and the cause of the damage. Sudden damage (like from storms) is more likely to be covered, while wear and tear usually is not. 

Safety & DIY

  • Can I do my own roof repairs?

    For very minor work (e.g., replacing a single shingle), a homeowner might do it safely — but most repairs, especially leaks or flashing issues, should be handled by a licensed professional. Roofing work can be dangerous and improper fixes may worsen the problem.

  • How do you ensure safety and quality on your jobs?

    Our crew is fully licensed and insured, with years of local experience. We use high-quality materials and follow proper installation practices to make sure the job is done safely and correctly.

Safety & DIY

  • What kind of maintenance should I do once my new roof is installed?

    After a new roof, we recommend periodic inspections, keeping gutters clean, and trimming overhanging tree branches. Proper maintenance helps extend the life of your roof. 

  • Do you offer follow-up or seasonal check-ups?

    Yes — we encourage our customers to reach out for follow-up inspections, especially after major weather events, to make sure everything remains in good shape.

    Yes — we back our work with a 10-year workmanship warranty on residential and commercial roofing projects.

  • Does homeowner’s insurance cover roof replacement?

    It depends on your policy. Insurance may cover roof damage if caused by a sudden event (like a storm), but not necessarily for general wear and tear. (While our site doesn’t detail insurance policies, this is a common industry standard.)
