  • Why should I choose a metal roof over a shingle roof?

    Metal roofing offers exceptional durability, often lasting 40-70 years compared to the 15-30 years typical of shingle roofs. Metal roofs are energy-efficient due to their solar reflection, lowering utility costs. They also are highly resistant to extreme weather conditions, making them an excellent choice for Florida homeowners, prone to severe storms. 

  • What should I look for in a roofing contractor?

    When selecting a roofing contractor, ensure they are licensed, insured, and have good reviews or references. It's also important to choose a contractor who offers a warranty on their workmanship and materials. 

  • Can roof repairs extend the life of my roof?

    Yes, timely and professional roof repairs can significantly extend the life of your roof by addressing issues before they worsen. Regular maintenance and minor repairs, such as replacing damaged shingles and sealing leaks, help maintain the roof's integrity and prevent the need for more costly replacements.

  • What does the process of a new roof installation involve?

    The process typically starts with a detailed inspection and measurement of your roof to determine the necessary materials and scope of work. The existing roof materials are then removed, and the roof deck is inspected for damage. Next, new underlayment is installed to provide a base for the roof coverings. Finally, the new roofing material, whether metal or shingles, is securely installed. The entire process can take anywhere from a few days to a couple of weeks, depending on the size and complexity of the roof.

  • How often should I get my roof inspected?

    Typically, you should get your roof inspected at least once a year. However, after any major tropical storm, it’s important to address any damage to ensure your roof stays in tip-top shape.

  • What are the signs that there is something wrong with my roof?

    If you notice missing/cracked shingles, damaged flashing, mold growth, sagging in the roof line, ceiling stains, algae growth, or clogged gutters, then it’s time to reach out to one of our roofing contractors. We will be able to assess the severity of the issue and determine what type of roofing service is necessary to restore the integrity of your roof. 

  • How long will a roof repair take?

    Depending on the severity of the damage, minor roof repairs can take anywhere from one to five hours. For more complex issues such as leaks or sagging, repairs may take multiple days to complete.
