What our customers say
FAQs
What roofing materials are best suited for Louisville’s climate?
Louisville experiences hot, humid summers, cold winters, and frequent hail-producing thunderstorms. Because of these extremes, we typically recommend impact-rated architectural asphalt shingles or Class 4 impact-resistant metal roofing. Architectural shingles provide excellent wind resistance (up to 130 mph) and enhanced granule adhesion for UV protection, while standing-seam metal panels shed snow and ice quickly and resist hail dents better than traditional shingles. Both options meet Kentucky Residential Code requirements and are available in ENERGY STAR® colors to help reduce cooling costs.
How often should I have my roof inspected in Louisville?
We suggest a professional inspection at least once a year—ideally each spring—plus a check after any major weather event such as hail, straight-line winds, or tornado warnings. Regular inspections identify small issues like lifted shingles, granule loss, or flashing damage before Louisville’s freeze-thaw cycles make them worse, saving you money on emergency repairs.
Can you assist with insurance claims for hail or wind damage?
Yes. Louisville sits in a hail-prone corridor, so we work closely with all major insurers. Our Haag-certified inspectors document storm damage with photos, thermal imaging, and a written scope of work. We meet adjusters on-site, negotiate fair settlements based on Kentucky market pricing, and handle all paperwork. This service is complimentary when you choose us for the repair or replacement.
Do I need a permit for roof replacement in Louisville, and will you obtain it?
The Louisville Metro Department of Codes & Regulations requires a residential roofing permit for any replacement exceeding 100 square feet. We handle the entire permitting process, including filing the application, paying municipal fees, scheduling required inspections, and providing you with final approval documentation for your records and future home resale.
How long does a typical roof replacement take for a Louisville home?
Most single-family homes of 2,000–3,000 square feet take one to two working days, weather permitting. Tear-off and dry-in usually happen on day 1, followed by shingle or panel installation on day 2. Complex roofs with multiple valleys, dormers, or decking repairs may add an extra day. We provide a detailed timeline before we begin and keep you updated if Louisville’s weather causes delays.
What warranties do you offer on your roofing work in Louisville?
We are certified by Owens Corning and CertainTeed, allowing us to offer manufacturer-backed warranties of up to 50 years on materials. Our workmanship is additionally covered by a 10-year labor warranty that is transferable if you sell your Louisville home. Warranty registration is handled by our office, and you receive all documents within two weeks of project completion.
