FAQs
What does an “Honest Assessment” of my roof involve?
Our inspector performs a comprehensive, no-obligation evaluation that covers shingles or metal panels, flashing, ventilation, decking, gutters, and attic insulation. We document every finding with photos, explain the condition in everyday language, and grade each item as Good, Monitor, or Needs Attention. If your roof still has years of service life left, we’ll tell you so—no pressure, no upsell. You receive a written report within 24 hours so you can make an informed decision.
How can I tell whether I need a repair or a full roof replacement?
Age, extent of damage, and underlying structural soundness are the three key factors. Minor issues such as a few missing shingles, isolated leaks, or flashing failures can usually be repaired cost-effectively. If your shingle roof is over 20 years old, shows widespread granule loss, curling, soft decking, or repeated leaks, replacement is usually the smarter long-term choice. During our assessment we quantify remaining life expectancy and give you both repair and replacement estimates so you can compare real numbers.
Which roofing materials work best for homes and businesses in Georgetown?
Architectural asphalt shingles remain the most popular because they balance affordability, 30-50-year warranties, and good wind resistance. For maximum durability, we often recommend Class 4 impact-rated shingles or standing-seam metal, both of which handle Central Texas hail and heat exceptionally well. TPO and modified bitumen are our go-to options for low-slope commercial roofs. We’ll review your budget, energy-efficiency goals, HOA guidelines, and curb-appeal preferences before making a final recommendation.
How long will my roofing project take from start to finish?
Small repairs can be completed the same day. A typical single-family home reroof (2,000–3,000 sq ft) takes 1–2 days once materials are on-site; metal systems may take 3–4 days. Permitting in Georgetown generally adds 1–2 business days, and material lead times range from immediate availability (standard shingles) to two weeks (custom colors or specialty metal). You’ll receive a detailed schedule, and our crews arrive on time, protect landscaping, magnet-sweep for nails, and perform a full cleanup before we leave.
Do you assist with insurance claims for hail or storm damage?
Yes. We provide the inspection report, annotated photos, and an Xactimate estimate formatted for your carrier. Upon request, we meet the adjuster on-site to make sure all damage is recorded. Once your claim is approved, we walk you through the paperwork, explain ACV vs. RCV settlements, and get your roof installed for the insurance price plus your deductible—never any hidden fees. Our experience with Texas carriers helps minimize delays and supplement requests.
What kind of warranty and post-installation support do you offer?
Every new roof includes a written manufacturer warranty—up to 50 years on shingles or lifetime on metal panels—registered in your name. We also back our workmanship with a 10-year labor warranty covering leaks related to our installation. After completion we conduct a final quality-control inspection, provide a maintenance checklist, and offer optional annual check-ups at a nominal fee. Should an issue arise, local crews stationed right here in Georgetown can usually be on your property within 24 hours.
