What our customers say

Mr Olin White from HEP arrived a little bit early which was very nice, he was very polite, very professional. He took the time to listen to my husband and I to get a better feel of what we were trying to accomplish. We have not started our project yet but I cannot imagine that their work will be anything less than stellar. I will recommend them too all of my family and friends and anyone else who I find needs a roof.

HEP was prompt in getting our job estimated and starting work. We had them replace a patio roof and perform some other minor repairs on the roof. They came out on Saturday, and Jason walked through everything, explaining the rationale behind his recommendations. They were exactly in line with existing recommendations from our home inspection, so I had confidence that he was giving his honest opinion and not just trying to upsell. Due to a clerical error, they removed our entire roof by accident, but replaced it at no cost. They immediately notified me when this happened and got it rectified right away. They were honest and transparent through the whole process. After the completion of the work, I notified them of a couple of punch list items and they knocked them out quickly without me having to pester or make a scene like you would with a less reputable contractor. This is the kind of contractor that you keep around. Reliable, easy to contact, responsive, and honest. I am a very independent DIYer, but if I can't do it, my first call will definitely be to HEP. . Thanks Jason and everyone at HEP.

We have used HEP in the past for plumbing and also some roof issues. Because of this, they offered us a free roof inspection. The tech (Tim Lawson) that came out was on time (actually a little earlier than expected), was very helpful and knowledgeable. He took his time to explain the repairs that we will be needing to our roof, offered affordable pricing and was very professional. I would recommend this company as they are fair in price and have knowledgeable, friendly , professional employees. Thanks HEP and Tim Lawson.

We (Leroy and Helen Queen, my parents) had our leaky roof replaced by HEP at the end of July 2019. We had a wonderful experience from start to finish: from Joshua who recommended HEP for our roofing needs, to Jason our Sales Rep who measured and then inspected the finished work, to Chris in the office who helped us with the financing, to the crew of men that came out and did a marvelous job removing, installing, and then tidying up afterwards. We were mightily impressed; they worked so quickly. We highly recommend giving HEP a call for your roofing needs based on our own experience with them. They all worked really hard and quickly to get us a new roof; something we very greatly appreciate. Thanks HEP!

Weather Challenges in Englewood and Their Impact on Roofs

Roofing systems in Englewood face an array of environmental pressures that vary by season and location.

Hail and Wind Damage

Sudden hailstorms can compromise shingle integrity, leaving tiny impact craters that accelerate UV degradation. High winds may break the adhesion strip, lifting shingles and exposing underlayment. HEP’s emergency tarping service immediately covers breached sections to prevent interior damage while a permanent repair plan is developed.

Temperature Fluctuations

Hot daytime temperatures followed by cool nights create expansion and contraction cycles. Over time, this cycle:

  • Loosens fasteners on metal roofs
  • Causes asphalt shingles to curl
  • Cracks mortar caps on ridge tiles

Moisture and Mold Prevention

High humidity and heavy downpours can lead to moisture infiltration. HEP addresses ventilation issues by:

  • Installing ridge and soffit vents for balanced airflow
  • Upgrading to breathable underlayment that releases trapped vapor
  • Sealing deck penetrations with leak-proof rubber boots

Preventive Maintenance Programs

A proactive approach reduces emergency repairs and maximizes roof lifespan.

Seasonal Maintenance Checklist

  • Spring: Inspect for winter ice dam damage and clean gutters
  • Summer: Check UV exposure wear and reseal flashing
  • Fall: Remove debris before snow load, verify attic insulation levels
  • Winter: Assess ice shield performance and clear snow to prevent ice dams

Benefits of Regular Roof Maintenance

  1. Extends material warranties by meeting manufacturer maintenance clauses
  2. Detects minor issues before they evolve into costly structural problems
  3. Maintains optimal energy efficiency through proper insulation and ventilation
  4. Enhances curb appeal by preserving uniform color and texture

Sustainable Roofing Options

Modern roofing solutions focus on environmental responsibility alongside durability.

Energy-Efficient Upgrades

HEP integrates:

  • Cool roof shingles with high solar reflectance index (SRI)
  • Radiant barriers beneath decking to reduce heat transfer
  • Continuous ridge ventilation for natural attic cooling

Recyclable Materials

Metal panels and certain asphalt shingles are recyclable at end-of-life, reducing landfill waste. HEP segregates tear-off debris to ensure recyclable components enter appropriate streams.

Cool Roof Coatings

On flat roofs, reflective coatings:

  • Lower rooftop temperatures by up to 60°F
  • Reduce HVAC demand during hot Englewood summers
  • Resist UV degradation, extending membrane life

Signs Your Roof Needs Immediate Attention

Early detection is the most cost-effective strategy.

Visual Cues

  • Dark streaks or algae growth
  • Sagging ridgelines indicating structural stress
  • Curling shingle tabs or missing granules

Interior Indicators

  • Water stains on ceilings or walls
  • Peeling paint around skylights or vents
  • Musty odors signaling hidden mold colonies

Age-Related Concerns

Asphalt shingles typically last 20–25 years under optimal conditions. Tile and metal systems boast longer lifespans but still require inspection once they pass the two-decade mark. HEP evaluates aging roofs to determine whether targeted repairs or partial replacements are most prudent.

Insurance Claims Assistance

Storm-related damages often involve navigating complex insurance paperwork. HEP’s administrative team provides:

  • Photographic evidence and written assessments for adjusters
  • Accurate scope of work documents aligned with policy language
  • On-site meetings with insurance representatives to validate findings

Storm Damage Expertise

After a major weather event, rapid response is critical. Crews secure compromised areas, preventing secondary water intrusion while long-term solutions are approved.

Enhancing Curb Appeal Through Roof Repair

A well-maintained roof elevates the entire aesthetic of a property.

Color Matching

HEP blends new shingles or tiles seamlessly with existing materials using:

  • Manufacturer databases for exact color codes
  • UV-resistant stains for natural clay tiles
  • Custom paint for metal panels where factory matches are discontinued

Architectural Harmony

Roof elements such as flashing, ridge caps, and vents are selected to complement the home’s architectural style. By prioritizing design consistency, HEP ensures that function and form coexist, boosting property value and neighborhood appeal.

Englewood Building Codes and Compliance

Adhering to local building codes protects homeowners from legal complications and ensures structural integrity.

Permit Acquisition Process

  • Submitting detailed repair plans to Englewood’s building department
  • Scheduling inspections at critical phases: decking, underlayment, and final surface installation
  • Documenting material specifications to verify compliance with wind-uplift and fire-resistance ratings

Code-Specific Requirements

Englewood mandates:

  • Minimum nail penetration depth for asphalt shingles
  • Approved underlayment types for slopes below 4/12 pitch
  • Ice and water shield installation in designated snow-load zones

Structural Components HEP Inspects and Repairs

Roof Deck Integrity

Technicians examine:

  • Delamination of plywood panels caused by moisture
  • Inadequate nailing frequency leading to deck uplift

Common Myths About Roof Repair Debunked

“A Small Leak Can Wait”

Water intrusion often spreads laterally, damaging insulation and framing far from the visible drip.

“New Shingles Fix All Problems”

Underlying deck rot, ventilation deficiencies, and worn flashing can negate the benefit of surface-only repairs.

“Metal Roofs Never Need Maintenance”

Thermal cycling loosens fasteners and degrades sealant over time, necessitating periodic tune-ups to prevent leaks.

The Role of Attic Health in Roof Longevity

Moisture Control

Vapor barriers and proper ventilation thwart mold growth and wood decay in rafters.

Temperature Regulation

A balanced attic temperature reduces stress on roofing materials during extreme heat or cold snaps common in Englewood’s transitional seasons.

Pest Deterrence

Sealed gable vents and intact soffits block rodents and insects that can chew through insulation or wiring.
