Answers to Your Most Common Roofing & Gutter Concerns

  • What is your warranty?

    We offer a 10-year workmanship warranty and depending on the shingle manufacturer at least a limited lifetime warranty, however in many cases we can offer a 4-Star lifetime warranty.

  • Do you use starter shingles?

    Yes, we use starter shingles on all the eaves and rakes. This allows us to offer a 130 MPH wind warranty.

  • Why do you use synthetic felt?

    To offer the manufacturer warranty we must use synthetic felt. However, over the test of time, synthetic felt out lasts Tar paper.

  • Do you replace all the flashings?

    Yes, we replace all the step flashings, Chimney flashings, Pipe flashings and counter flashing where needed.

  • Do you recommend a complete tear off or a shingle over?

    Generally, I would always recommend a complete tear off, simply because of the price of materials anymore.  I feel strongly that a tear off gives us the opportunity to inspect the roof deck, re-nail what needs re-nailed and replace any wood that needs replaced at that time.  While I feel that's the best route in some circumstance's budget is more important and we certainly can recover a roof if needed.

  • How long will the new install take?

    Generally, the average size and pitch ranch will take 2 - 3 days to complete.

  • Do you offer financing?

    Yes, we do.

  • What are the terms of payment?

    If not financed, Personal check, Certified check, Cash, or Credit card (finance charges may apply).
