FAQs
Why should I schedule a free roof inspection in Pelham?
Pelham’s mix of hot summers, heavy rains, and the occasional severe storm can accelerate roof wear. A no-cost inspection lets you catch small issues—like lifted shingles or minor flashing gaps—before they turn into leaks that damage insulation, drywall, or electrical systems. It also provides an accurate picture of your roof’s remaining life so you can budget for future repairs or replacement instead of facing an emergency.
What does your free roof inspection include?
Our certified inspector performs a full exterior walk-around, attic assessment (when accessible), drone or camera imagery for hard-to-reach areas, moisture scanning, and ventilation evaluation. You receive a detailed digital report with photos, a condition grade, and clear recommendations—whether that means simple maintenance, targeted repair, or a full replacement—with no obligation to hire us.
How do I know if I need a full roof replacement or just repairs?
Key indicators for replacement include shingles nearing 20 years old, widespread granule loss, curling or missing tabs across multiple slopes, persistent leaks after prior repairs, or visible sagging in the decking. Localized damage, on the other hand—such as a single puncture from a fallen limb—can usually be fixed. Our inspection explains the extent of deterioration, compares repair versus replacement costs, and helps you make an informed decision based on longevity and total value.
How long does a typical roof replacement take in Pelham?
For an average 2,000–3,000 sq ft single-family home, tear-off and installation usually take one to two days, weather permitting. Larger homes, complex rooflines, or unexpected decking repairs can extend the job to three or four days. We schedule materials in advance, protect landscaping with tarps, perform daily magnetic nail sweeps, and conduct a final quality walkthrough so your property is clean and secure when we leave.
What roofing materials can I choose for my replacement?
We install architectural and designer asphalt shingles, standing-seam and exposed-fastener metal panels, synthetic slate and shake, and traditional cedar. Options meet local building codes and carry manufacturer warranties ranging from 25 years to lifetime. We review appearance, wind ratings, energy efficiency, and price points so you can select a system that fits your style and budget while withstanding Pelham’s climate.
Do you help with insurance claims for storm-damaged roofs?
Absolutely. If wind or hail has compromised your roof, we document damage with photos, measurement apps, and inspection notes, then meet your adjuster on-site to ensure nothing is missed. Our team guides you through claim paperwork, code-upgrade requirements, and supplement requests. Once the claim is approved, we schedule replacement promptly and bill your insurer directly for covered items, so all you owe is the deductible.
