Frequently asked questions
Answers to common questions about roof replacement, storm damage and insurance claims.
Services
How do I know if I need a repair or a full roof replacement?
A localized leak or a few damaged shingles can often be repaired. Widespread wind or hail damage, or a roof near the end of its life, usually points to replacement. We inspect the roof at no cost and tell you which one fits.
Do you handle storm damage and insurance claims?
Yes. All of our project managers are certified storm damage inspectors, so we know what level of damage supports a claim. We assess the roof for free and help with the claim through the end of the project.
Can storm damage be hard to see from the ground?
Yes. Wind-creased shingles cannot be seen from the ground, and hail damage can be easy to miss. A roof-level assessment is the reliable way to find out, and ours is free.
What roofing materials do you install?
We install GAF shingles and the full GAF roofing system. That includes Pro-Start starter strips, Seal-A-Ridge ridge cap, Weather Watch ice and water barrier, Cobra ridge ventilation and roof deck protection.
What does ice and water barrier do?
It is a watertight layer applied at the eaves and valleys, the most vulnerable parts of the roof. It helps stop ice dams along the gutter line from pushing water under the shingles.
Why does roof ventilation matter?
Ridge ventilation lets the attic and roof breathe, which helps moisture escape and extends the life of the roofing system. We install GAF Cobra ridge vent with our roof replacements.
How long does an asphalt shingle roof last?
It depends on the shingle, the ventilation, the installation and the weather the roof has been through. Many asphalt shingle roofs last well over a decade, and storms can shorten that. An inspection will tell you where yours stands.
