Professional Roofing Installation & Replacement

We connect homeowners with professional installers for roof inspections, full roof replacements, new roof installations, emergency leak repairs, flat roofing systems, gutter and fascia replacement, and related exterior home improvements such as siding and ventilation upgrades.

Most full roof replacements on a typical single-family home take between 1 and 5 days depending on roof size, complexity, decking repairs, weather, and permit timelines; complex roofs or multi-stage projects can take longer.

Installers commonly work with asphalt architectural shingles, three-tab shingles, metal panels and standing seam, clay or concrete tile, slate, and flat-roof membranes such as TPO, EPDM, and modified bitumen, with material choice guided by budget, roof slope, climate, and local code.

Yes, most municipalities require building permits for full roof replacements and some repairs; professional installers typically obtain permits and schedule required inspections as part of the project to ensure code compliance.

You should expect two warranty types: a manufacturer’s warranty covering the roofing material (varies by product and can range from 10 to 50 years) and a contractor workmanship warranty covering installation (commonly 1 to 10 years); always get warranty details in writing.

Clear vehicles from driveways, move outdoor furniture and plan for noise and debris, secure pets and children, trim overhanging branches if safe to do so, and notify neighbors if scaffolding or heavy equipment will be used; the crew will usually do a final site protection and cleanup.

Key cost factors include roof area and pitch, choice of materials, number of layers to remove, extent of decking or structural repairs, ventilation and insulation upgrades, permit fees, and local labor rates.

Experienced roofing contractors can provide an inspection report and documentation (photos and scope of damage) to support an insurance claim, and many will coordinate directly with your insurer; always verify credentials, insurance, and references before hiring.

Regularly clean gutters, remove debris and moss, inspect and replace damaged flashing or shingles, maintain attic ventilation and insulation to prevent moisture issues, and schedule professional inspections after major storms or every few years.

Ask for proof of insurance and licensing where required, request references and recent project photos, check for local reviews, confirm written estimates and detailed contracts, inquire about warranty terms, and verify the company provides a clear cleanup plan and safety procedures.
