FAQs
What does it mean that your roofing crews are “certified”?
A certified crew has completed formal training and testing provided by roofing manufacturers and industry associations. Certification verifies that each installer understands proper installation techniques, current building codes, job-site safety standards, and manufacturer guidelines. Our technicians hold credentials such as GAF Master Elite®, CertainTeed SELECT ShingleMaster™, and OSHA 30-Hour Safety, ensuring every phase of your project meets or exceeds industry best practices.
How do certified crews benefit my roofing project?
Using certified installers translates into longer-lasting roofs, fewer callbacks, and smoother inspections. Certified crews follow precise manufacturer specifications, which reduces installation errors that can lead to leaks or premature failure. Their familiarity with local codes speeds up permitting and final approval, while their advanced safety training minimizes on-site accidents and delays. The result is a roof completed on schedule, on budget, and built to perform for decades.
What roofing materials and systems are your crews certified to install?
Our team maintains active certifications for a wide range of residential and commercial systems, including asphalt shingles, standing-seam metal, cedar shake, slate, synthetic composites, and low-slope membranes such as TPO, PVC, and EPDM. Each certification is brand-specific—GAF, Owens Corning, CertainTeed, Mule-Hide, and Firestone—so you receive manufacturer-approved workmanship no matter which product you choose.
Will a certified installation affect my roof warranty?
Yes—positively. Most leading manufacturers offer enhanced or extended warranties only when their products are installed by certified contractors. Because our crews meet those requirements, you gain access to coverage options of up to 25-50 years on materials and 10-25 years on workmanship. A non-certified installation can void manufacturer warranties altogether, leaving you responsible for any future defects or failures.
Are certified crews more expensive than regular installers?
While the upfront labor rate of a certified crew can be marginally higher, the overall cost of ownership is typically lower. Correct installation reduces the need for repairs, extends the life of your roof, and safeguards your warranty—all of which save money long term. Additionally, our volume purchasing power and manufacturer partnerships allow us to keep pricing highly competitive while still delivering premium workmanship.
How can I verify the certification status of the crew working on my home?
Transparency is important. Before work begins, we provide copies of our current manufacturer certificates, state contractor license, and proof of insurance. You can also visit the manufacturer’s website or call their customer support line to confirm our standing. If you’d like, we’ll show crew ID badges on-site and share recent project references so you have full confidence in the qualifications of everyone on your roof.
