Are You Licensed, Insured, and Certified?
Absolutely. We are a GAF certified roofing contractor, which means we have met rigorous standards for installation quality, training, and professionalism set by one of North America’s largest roofing manufacturers. Only a small percentage of roofing contractors nationwide earn this distinction. This certification also means we can offer enhanced warranty options on GAF roofing products, giving you additional peace of mind that your investment is protected for years to come.
Being family owned and operated, we take immense pride in our reputation. We carry full insurance coverage and maintain all required licensing for the work we perform. You can trust that every member of our crew meets high standards of safety and craftsmanship.
Do You Help With Insurance Claims?
Yes, we are insurance claims assistance professionals, and this is one of the most valuable services we provide. Navigating the insurance process after property damage can be overwhelming and confusing. We handle insurance claims regularly and understand the documentation, terminology, and procedures that insurance companies require. Our team works directly with your adjuster to ensure nothing is overlooked, helping you receive the coverage you deserve.
From the initial damage assessment through final paperwork, we guide you through every step. We document damage thoroughly with detailed photos and reports, making the claims process as smooth and stress-free as possible for you.
What Should I Do After a Storm Damages My Property?
As storm damage experts, we recommend taking immediate action after severe weather impacts your property. Here are the steps we suggest:
- Ensure personal safety first by staying away from any structural damage, downed power lines, or standing water
- Document visible damage with photos and videos before making any temporary repairs
- Contact your insurance company to file a claim as soon as possible
- Call us for a free inspection so we can assess the full extent of the damage and provide a professional report
- Avoid signing contracts with door-to-door solicitors who may appear immediately after storms
We provide 24/7 emergency response for urgent situations like severe roof leaks or structural concerns. When a storm strikes, time is critical, and our team is ready to deploy quickly to prevent further damage to your property. We can perform emergency tarping and temporary repairs to protect your home or business until permanent restoration work begins.
How Long Does a Typical Roofing Project Take?
The timeline depends on several factors, including the size of the roof, complexity of the design, weather conditions, and the materials selected. A standard residential roof replacement typically takes between one and three days once materials are on site and weather cooperates. Larger commercial projects or properties with intricate architectural features may require additional time. During your free estimate, we provide a realistic timeline so you can plan accordingly.
What Makes You Different From Other Contractors?
Being family owned and operated means every project carries our family name and reputation. We are not a faceless corporation.
