What a proper job includes

- Decking repair where sheathing is soft or delaminated
- New underlayment with ice-and-water shield at valleys and eaves
- New flashing at chimneys, walls, skylights and pipe boots
- Balanced ventilation — a hot attic cooks a new roof from underneath

Frequently asked questions
- Do you offer financing?
- We work with many different financing vendors, so there is usually more than one option. We review what fits after inspecting the roof and giving you a written price.
- Is the roof inspection free?
- Yes. We inspect, photograph every slope and give you a written report at no cost and no obligation, whether or not there is a sale in it.
- 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.
- 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.
