FAQs
What premium roofing materials do you offer for roof replacement in Cleveland?
We specialize in high-performance asphalt shingles (designer and architectural grades), standing-seam and stamped metal panels, synthetic slate and shake, and genuine slate and copper accents. All products are sourced from top-tier manufacturers such as GAF, CertainTeed, DaVinci, and Englert to ensure maximum durability and curb appeal for Northeast Ohio homes.
How do Cleveland’s weather conditions affect the choice of premium roofing materials?
Cleveland experiences heavy lake-effect snow, freeze–thaw cycles, summer humidity, and high winds off Lake Erie. Premium asphalt shingles with SBS modification, steel or aluminum standing-seam roofs, and composite slate are engineered to resist ice damming, wind uplift up to 130–150 mph, and thermal cracking. We assess your home’s exposure, roof pitch, and ventilation to recommend the material that will best handle local climate stresses and extend roof life.
What is the typical timeline for a premium roof replacement?
Most single-family homes are completed in 2–5 days, depending on roof size, material complexity, and weather. Day 1 covers tear-off and deck inspection. Days 2-4 address underlayment, flashing, and material installation. The final day is reserved for detail work, cleanup, and a multi-point quality inspection. Complex slate or metal projects may extend to 7–10 days, but we provide a detailed schedule before work begins.
How long will a premium roof last, and what warranties are included?
Architectural asphalt shingles installed to manufacturer specs average 30–40 years, while SBS-modified and designer shingles can reach 50 years. Metal standing-seam systems typically last 50+ years, and synthetic or natural slate can exceed 75-100 years with proper maintenance. We include a lifetime material warranty (non-prorated for 50 years) from the manufacturer and a 10-year transferable workmanship warranty from our company, giving you full coverage on both materials and installation.
Do you handle permits, inspections, and insurance claims?
Yes. We pull all required permits through the City of Cleveland or your specific suburb, coordinate mandatory building department inspections, and provide documentation for your records. If your roof replacement is linked to storm damage, our certified inspectors can meet with your adjuster, supply photo evidence, and help you navigate the insurance claim process to maximize eligible coverage.
What does a premium roof replacement cost in Cleveland, and do you offer financing?
Premium architectural asphalt roofs average $7–$10 per square foot installed, while standing-seam metal ranges from $10–$15 per square foot. Synthetic slate and genuine slate start around $14 and can exceed $25 per square foot depending on complexity. Exact pricing depends on roof size, pitch, decking condition, and accessory selections. We offer multiple financing options, including 0% promotional plans and low-interest terms up to 144 months, so you can spread payments out in a way that fits your budget.
