FAQs
What is a “no-pressure” roofing & gutter inspection, and why should I schedule one?
A no-pressure inspection means our certified technician evaluates your roof, shingles, flashing, fascia, and gutter system without using sales tactics or on-the-spot signing demands. You receive an honest written report, photos, and repair/replacement options you can review at your own pace. Homeowners in Karns benefit because small problems—loose shingles, clogged or sagging gutters—can be addressed before they lead to leaks, mold, or structural damage that cost far more to fix.
How does your free inspection process work in Karns?
1) Schedule: Call or book online for a date that fits your calendar. 2) Arrival: Our uniformed inspector calls 30 minutes ahead and arrives in a marked vehicle. 3) Exterior Check: We photograph the roof, gutters, downspouts, soffits, and drainage points, looking for shingle granule loss, rusted fasteners, and fascia rot. 4) Attic Check (if permitted): We inspect ventilation, insulation, and look for water staining. 5) Report Delivery: Within 24 hours you receive a digital report with pictures, condition grades, and clear recommendations. We explain findings but never ask you to sign a contract on the spot—repairs or replacement are entirely your decision.
What are the common signs I may need gutter or roof replacement rather than simple repairs?
• Roof is 18–25 years old and has widespread shingle curling or missing tabs. • Multiple leak points visible in the attic or ceiling. • Granules accumulate heavily in gutters, indicating advanced shingle wear. • Flashing around chimneys, skylights, or valleys is rusted or separated. • Gutters are pulling away, continually clogging, or showing seam separation. • Wood fascia behind gutters is soft or shows mildew streaks. If two or more of these issues are present, a full replacement is usually more cost-effective long term.
Can you help me with insurance claims for storm or hail damage?
Yes. After your no-pressure inspection we document storm-related damage with time-stamped photos and a written scope of loss formatted for insurer requirements. If you choose, our licensed adjuster liaison can meet your insurance adjuster on-site, supply measurements, and help ensure all covered items—roof, gutters, drip edge, ventilation—are included in the claim. You remain in control of the final decision and we never charge upfront for this assistance.
How long does a typical roof or gutter replacement take in the Karns area?
Most asphalt shingle roofs on single-family homes take 1–2 days, including tear-off, deck repair, underlayment, shingle installation, and job-site cleanup. Seamless gutter replacement usually adds half a day. Larger or steep-pitch roofs, complex architectural designs, or weather delays can extend the schedule, but we provide a detailed timeline before work begins and keep you updated daily.
What materials and warranties do you offer for replacements?
Roofing: We install top-tier architectural shingles from Owens Corning, GAF, and CertainTeed, metal standing-seam panels, and impact-resistant options. Manufacturer warranties range from 25-year limited to lifetime non-prorated coverage. Because we are factory-certified, you receive enhanced warranties that cover labor and material. Gutters: We custom-form 5" and 6" seamless aluminum or copper gutters on-site, paired with oversized downspouts and optional gutter guards. Materials carry a 20-year finish warranty, and our workmanship is covered by a 5-year labor guarantee. All warranties are transferable if you sell your Karns home.
