Frequently Asked Questions
We specialize in asphalt shingle roofs. Generally, we install Owens Corning Duration architectural shingles because of their industry-leading warranty. We also provide metal roof options and gutter installation.
The best type of roof depends on your home’s structure, your budget, and your aesthetic preferences. We typically recommend Owens Corning Duration architectural shingles because of their durability, curb appeal, and outstanding warranty. For customers looking for something different, we also offer metal roofing options that provide long-term performance and a modern look.
A properly installed asphalt shingle roof can last 25–30 years or more, depending on weather conditions and routine maintenance. With Owens Corning shingles and proper installation, you can expect long-lasting performance, especially with the added peace of mind from their 50-year product warranty.
If you are experiencing leaks, water damage, blown-off shingles, or other signs of roof aging such as shingles losing granules and cracked shingles, then you could benefit from a roof inspection. A roof inspection will help us determine whether the problem is isolated or if the entire roof system needs replacing.
Common signs include missing or curling shingles, granule loss, water stains on ceilings or walls, and visible sagging. If your roof is over 20 years old or you’ve experienced storm damage, it’s a good idea to schedule a professional inspection to assess its condition.
In most cases, we recommend a full tear-off. Removing the old roof allows us to inspect the decking underneath for damage and ensure the new roof is installed on a solid, clean surface. This approach helps extend the life of your new roof, reduces the weight of the roof system, and protects your investment.
The length of time it takes to install a new roof can vary depending on the size and complexity of the project. On average, you can expect the process to take a few days.
The process for installing a new roof typically involves several steps, including removing the old roof, installing new underlayment, and installing the new roofing material. The exact process will depend on the specific needs of your home and the type of roofing material being used.
Proper ventilation and flashing are key to a long-lasting roof. During installation, we assess your attic ventilation and install the appropriate ridge vents or intake vents if needed. We also install flashing around chimneys and walls using industry best practices to prevent leaks.
The cost of a new roof can vary significantly depending on the size of the roof, the type of material used, and the location of the property. On average, you can expect to pay $10,000 to $20,000 for a new roof, but costs can range from $8,000 to $35,000 or more.

We take every precaution to protect your home and yard. That includes laying down tarps and carefully moving or covering landscaping when necessary. We also protect driveways from heavy equipment and perform a full clean-up once the job is complete.
After the job is completed, we thoroughly clean up all debris and magnet sweep the entire job site to ensure it’s as clean as it was before we arrived.
