Frequently Asked Questions
Straight answers about roofing, insurance claims, and what to expect when you work with us.
Insurance Claims
Do you help with insurance claims?
Yes. Insurance claims are our specialty. We inspect your roof, document the damage with photos and clear notes, and walk you through each step of the claims process so you always know where you stand.
Coverage decisions are made by your insurance carrier, but you'll have an experienced roofer in your corner from the first inspection to the final walkthrough.
I think my roof has storm damage. Who should I call first?
Call us for an inspection. We can confirm whether there is damage and document it before you decide how to move forward. Most policies have deadlines for reporting storm damage, so it's smart not to wait long after a storm.
Do I have to use your company if insurance is paying for the roof?
In most cases the choice of roofer is yours. Check your policy or ask your insurance agent if you're unsure. We'd simply love the chance to earn your trust with an honest inspection and a clear explanation of what we find.
What should I do right after a storm?
Stay safe first and stay off the roof. If it's safe to do so, take photos of any visible damage (shingles in the yard, dents in gutters, water stains on ceilings), prevent further water damage where you can, and give us a call to schedule an inspection. Keep any receipts for emergency repairs.
Roofing Services
What types of roofing services do you offer?
We handle full roof replacements, roof repairs, roof inspections, and storm damage restoration for both residential and commercial properties. If it involves your roof, we can help.
How do I know if I need a repair or a full replacement?
It depends on the age of the roof, the type and extent of the damage, and the overall condition of the materials. We'll inspect the roof, show you what we find, and give you an honest recommendation. If a repair is all you need, we'll tell you.
What does a roof inspection include?
We look at the roof surface, flashing, vents, and other roofing components, check for storm damage and signs of leaks, and explain our findings in plain language so you can make a confident decision.
How long does a roof replacement take?
The timeline depends on the size and complexity of the roof, the materials, and the weather. We'll give you a realistic schedule before work begins and keep you updated along the way.
What are common signs of roof storm damage?
Missing, cracked, or curling shingles; granules collecting in gutters; dented vents, gutters, or flashing; and water stains or leaks inside the home. Some damage can't be seen from the ground, which is why an inspection is worthwhile after severe weather.
Do you do commercial roofing?
Yes. We serve both homeowners and commercial property owners. Reach out with details about your building and we'll set up a time to take a look.

What warranty do you offer?
Every total roof replacement we complete comes with a 5-year warranty. Roofing materials may also carry their own manufacturer warranties, and we'll explain what applies to your roof.
