03 / Roofing questions
Straight answers.
What does a roof replacement include?
A complete tear-off and replacement, rotten decking replacement, ice-and-water shield and ventilation, and flashing at chimneys, valleys and sidewalls.
Can you help after a storm or hail?
Yes. Todd assesses the damage and documents the repair. The insurer decides what is covered, and Todd explains the repair work.
What does it cost?
Cost depends on size, condition, access and repairs, so you get a written estimate rather than a quick price.
How long does it take?
Timing depends on scope, materials, weather and repair needs. Discuss the schedule for your home with Todd.
Do you check what is under the shingles?
That is why the tear-off comes first. With the old layers off, Todd can inspect the decking and replace rotten boards before anything new goes down.
Why does my chimney leak?
Most leaks start at the flashing, so that is where we start.
How do you prevent ice problems?
Ice-and-water shield and proper ventilation are part of the work.
What about warranties?
Ask Todd to explain the workmanship and product warranty terms, coverage and exclusions for your specific project.
