Roofing in the Midwest is not complicated work, but it is unforgiving work. A valley detailed wrong or flashing reused from the old roof will find you during the first hard rain — usually years after the contractor stopped answering.

How the work goes

  1. Free inspection. Every slope photographed, findings shown to you.
  2. Written itemized price. Scope, materials and warranty on paper.
  3. Insurance, if it applies. We document the damage and meet your adjuster at the property.
  4. Permits and scheduling. We pull what your jurisdiction requires.
  5. The work. Decking checked, flashing replaced, ventilation corrected, valleys detailed.
  6. Cleanup and final walk. Magnet sweep for nails, walked with you before we leave.

Signs your roof needs looking at

  • Granules collecting in gutters or at splash blocks
  • Shingles curled, cupped, creased or missing after wind
  • Dark bruised spots in the shingle surface after hail
  • Ceiling stains, especially near chimneys and bath vents
  • Daylight in the attic or damp insulation
  • A roof past twenty years never professionally inspected

If it is an emergency right now

Call and a person will answer, day or night. For active water we protect first — tarping documented with photographs taken before the cover goes on, because once a roof is dried in the evidence for your claim is gone — then schedule the permanent repair.

  • Family-owned and still here, with the name on the trucks

Where we work

Frequently asked questions

How long does a roof replacement take?
Most residential roofs are a one-day tear-off and installation. Larger or more complex rooflines run two to three days, and weather moves schedules more than anything else.
What warranty do you offer?
Every roof we install carries our lifetime workmanship warranty, on top of the manufacturer's warranty on the shingle itself. Workmanship is where roofs actually fail.
Will you tell me if I do not need a new roof?
Yes, and we do it regularly. If a repair will genuinely carry the roof for years, that is what we will recommend even though it is the smaller job.
Are you licensed and insured?
Yes, and you should ask every contractor who knocks on your door the same question — then ask to see it in writing.
