FAQs
What sets Precision Craftsmanship Roofing apart from other Belvidere roofing contractors?
Our company focuses on meticulous, detail-oriented workmanship backed by manufacturer training and local experience. We use hand-picked crews—not day labor—so every shingle is installed to spec, flashing is custom-fabricated on site, and ventilation is balanced according to Belvidere’s climate. In addition, every project is overseen by a project manager who provides daily photo updates, ensuring transparency and superior quality from tear-off to final inspection.
Which roofing materials do you install, and how do I choose the best one for my Belvidere home?
We install architectural asphalt shingles, designer and impact-resistant shingles, standing-seam metal, cedar shakes, and low-slope membranes (TPO, EPDM). The right choice depends on budget, aesthetic, roof pitch, and performance needs: • Architectural asphalt: Cost-effective, 30-yr rated, wide color range. • Impact-resistant shingles: Great for hail-prone Boone County, may lower insurance premiums. • Metal roofing: 50-yr life, energy-efficient, sheds snow quickly in Midwest winters. • Cedar shake: Classic look and high insulation value; requires periodic maintenance. • Single-ply membranes: Ideal for patio roofs or commercial buildings with low pitch. During the consultation we provide samples, explain manufacturer warranties, and run a ventilation/insulation check to help you decide.
How long will a roof replacement take and what should I expect during the process?
Most single-family Belvidere roofs are completed in 1–2 days. Larger or complex roofs can take 3–4 days. Here’s the typical timeline: Day 1 – Material delivery & property protection (tarps, plywood shields around landscaping). Day 1–2 – Tear-off, deck inspection, and repairs. Day 2 – Underlayment, ice-and-water shield, and starter courses installed. Day 2–3 – Shingle/metal installation, flashing, ventilation upgrades, ridge caps. Final day – Magnetic nail sweep, gutter cleaning, and walk-through with the homeowner. Weather delays are rare but planned for; we never leave your roof exposed overnight.
Are you licensed, insured, and certified? What warranties do you provide?
Yes. Precision Craftsmanship Roofing holds an Illinois Roofing Contractor License (#104-xxxxxx) and carries $2 million in general liability plus full workers’ compensation coverage. We are CertainTeed SELECT ShingleMaster and GAF Certified, allowing us to offer enhanced, transferable manufacturer warranties up to 50 years on materials. Our own workmanship is covered for 10 years—double the state requirement—which means if a leak occurs due to our installation, labor and materials are free.
How do you maintain safety and cleanliness on the jobsite?
Safety is our first priority. Crews wear OSHA-compliant fall protection, use toe boards or guardrails, and attend weekly safety briefings. We schedule daily debris removal, use catch-all netting systems to protect siding and shrubs, and perform multiple magnetic sweeps of the yard and driveway. Dump trailers leave with us at day’s end, so you’re never left with an unsightly dumpster all week.
What signs indicate my Belvidere roof needs repair or replacement, and what should I do next?
Watch for missing or curling shingles, granules in gutters, interior water spots, ice dams, or rising energy bills. After hail or high winds, inspect for dents or lifted shingles. If you notice any of these, call us for a free 20-point inspection. We document findings with photos, explain repair vs. replacement options, and can assist with insurance claims if storm damage is involved.
