Roofing in Metropolis 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.
Storm damage and insurance
Most roofs in this area are replaced because of a storm rather than age alone. Claims turn on documentation gathered while the damage is fresh, which is why our inspection report is written the way an adjuster reads one — slope by slope, with soft metals and measurements included. You file the claim; we make sure the evidence is there.
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.
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

Frequently asked questions
- Do you pull permits?
- Yes. We pull the permits your jurisdiction requires and handle the inspections that go with them.
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
