Our Mission
We build relationships that are based on trust and integrity. Our goal is to provide roofs that will deliver an ownership experience that delights and is consistent with the premium products that we sell, service and install.
We are driven by a philosophy that our success will ultimately be determined more by the number of people we help rather than the amount of roofs we install.
We invite you to contact us to discuss your individual needs and for a customized quote.
Facebook Facts Frequently Asked Questions:
Signs of Damage
Q: Does my Home Owners Insurance cover wind damage?
A: Yes
Q: What size hail is damaging to my roof?
A: This depends on several variables - shape, hardness, density of hail, wind speed, age, and type of roof. In general, pea and marble size hail should not damage composition shingles in good condition, unless extreme winds are present.
Q: How long should I expect my roof to last?
A: All roofs eventually wear out. How quickly depends on several factors including: quality of materials, quality of attic & roof ventilation and the climate.
Q:What causes wood shingles to split and crack?
A: Splitting & cracking of wood occurs naturally as a part of the aging process, largely due to shrinking and swelling caused by moisture and subsequent drying.
Q: What causes a roof to wear out?
A: Several factors combine to affect roof deterioration. These may include ultraviolet radiation from the sun, temperature extremes, exposure to wind & rain, and foot traffic on the roof. Darker color shingles may have shorter service life than shingles with a light color.
Q: Can composition shingles be repaired?
A: Yes. If damage is minor, a roofing contractor can remove individual shingles and replace them with new shingles.
Q: You noticed lighter colored "splatter" marks on your roof after a hail storm. Is this damage?
A: No. The "splatter marks that you see are normal after a hail storm. Your roof has darkened over time since its installation as a result of algae and oxidation. When the hailstones contact the roof, the algae and oxidation are removed, leaving a light colored mark. In time, these marks will fade as algae grows and oxidation contiunes on your roof.
Q: You noticed granules from your composition roof in your gutter and driveway. Is this normal?
A: Yes. With composition shingles, granular loss is a part of the normal weathering process. Small hail impacting a roof often displaces some of the granules as does rain, wind and foot traffic.
Q: Are all homes in a neighborhood affected the same way by hail?
A: No. The number, size and hardness of hailstones can vary tremendously within a small locality. Other factors include velocity and direction of the wind, roof pitch, age and condition. Each roof is different.
