Read the guideHiring and ClaimsQuestions to Ask a Roofer After a Storm
A few good questions can save you stress. Bring this list to your first conversation.
Read the guideCan you tarp the roof before the permanent repair?
Yes. A strapped tarp or a board-up keeps rain out while materials are ordered and the weather clears, and we photograph the work so you have a record.
Do you work on commercial and apartment roofs?
Yes. We repair and replace flat, low-slope and pitched roofs on shops, offices, churches, schools and apartment communities, and we coordinate with owners and property managers.
What if you find more damage once the work starts?
Hidden damage such as soft decking happens. We stop, show you, explain the options and agree on the next step before we continue.
Do you protect my yard and clean up?
Yes. We protect plants and siding where needed, haul away debris and sweep the grounds with a magnet for nails.
