FAQs
How can I tell if my Birchwood home needs a full roof replacement instead of a simple repair?
There are several warning signs. If your asphalt roof is 20–25 years old, has curling or missing shingles, widespread granule loss, sagging decking, or repeated interior leaks, replacement is usually more cost-effective than piecemeal repairs. Other red flags include mold in the attic, daylight showing through the boards, or extensive storm damage. We offer free, no-obligation inspections in Birchwood that include photos and a written assessment so you can make an informed decision.
What roofing materials do you install, and which ones perform best in Birchwood’s climate?
We install architectural asphalt shingles, standing-seam metal, designer composite shingles, and cedar shake. Architectural asphalt remains the most popular because it balances cost, curb appeal, and a 30-year life expectancy. Metal roofs last 50+ years, shed snow easily, and can lower cooling costs in our warm summers. Composite shingles mimic slate or shake but are lighter and highly impact-resistant—ideal if you’re worried about hail. Cedar offers a classic look but needs more maintenance. During your consultation we’ll review budgets, HOA guidelines, and energy goals to help you choose the best fit for Birchwood’s four-season weather.
How long does a typical roof replacement take?
For an average single-family home in Birchwood, tear-off and installation are usually completed in one to three working days. Larger, steeper, or highly complex roofs may take up to a week. We obtain city permits in advance, stage materials the day before, and schedule work around the local forecast to minimize weather delays. You’ll receive a detailed timeline up front, and a site supervisor will keep you updated daily.
Will my homeowner’s insurance pay for the new roof?
Insurance generally covers roof replacement when the damage results from a covered peril such as hail, wind, fallen trees, or fire—not from normal wear and tear. If you think storm damage is involved, call us first. We document the damage with photos and an inspection report, meet the adjuster on-site, and help you navigate paperwork so you receive every dollar you’re entitled to under your policy. If the roof has simply reached the end of its life, replacement is usually considered a homeowner expense.
How much does a roof replacement cost in Birchwood?
Costs vary by material, roof size, pitch, and required decking repairs. In 2024, most Birchwood homeowners spend between $8,000 and $18,000 for a new architectural asphalt roof on a 2,000-sq-ft home. Metal runs 2–3 times more, while premium composites and cedar sit in between. After a free on-site measurement we provide a fixed-price quote that lists material, labor, permits, disposal, and warranty—so there are no surprises.
What precautions do you take to protect my property during the project?
Before tear-off begins, we lay heavy-duty tarps over landscaping, decks, and AC units, and place protective plywood against siding. We use catch-all netting at the roofline to control debris, and perform a magnetic nail sweep of the yard and driveway each evening. Dumpsters are positioned on protective boards to prevent driveway cracking. Our crew carries full liability insurance and follows Birchwood building codes for noise and work hours, ensuring your home and neighbors are respected throughout the job.
