FAQs
How do you determine the cost of a roof repair in Rockford?
Our repair pricing is based on the size of the affected area, the type of roofing material (asphalt, metal, cedar, etc.), roof pitch, accessibility, and the extent of any underlying damage. We perform a no-obligation on-site inspection, document every issue with photos, and enter the measurements into standardized pricing software that updates with current Rockford labor and material rates. You receive an itemized quote that breaks down labor, materials, disposal fees, and taxes so you can see exactly where every dollar goes.
What makes your pricing model "transparent" compared to other Rockford roofers?
Transparency means zero hidden fees and easy-to-understand numbers. We publish our base repair rates per square foot on our website, show you manufacturer invoices for materials, and lock in those material costs the day you sign. Any change orders—such as discovering additional damaged decking—trigger a new line item and your written approval before we proceed. You’ll always know the running total in real time through our online customer portal.
Do you offer free estimates, and will I be pressured to sign on the spot?
Yes, estimates are 100 % free for homeowners within 30 miles of downtown Rockford. After the inspection, our technician explains the findings, answers questions, and emails you the detailed proposal. We never use high-pressure tactics or same-day sign-off discounts. Our quotes remain valid for 30 days, giving you plenty of time to compare bids and make an informed decision.
Can you help me navigate insurance claims for storm-related roof damage?
Absolutely. If hail, wind, or fallen limbs have damaged your roof, we’ll document the damage according to Illinois insurance guidelines, create a repair scope that matches Xactimate pricing, and meet your adjuster on-site if requested. While we cannot act as your public adjuster, our experience often helps homeowners in Rockford receive fair coverage for legitimate storm damage. We’ll also explain any out-of-pocket costs up front so there are no surprises.
How quickly can you complete a typical roof repair once I approve the quote?
For most minor to moderate repairs (under 10 roofing squares), we can schedule and finish the work within 3-5 business days, weather permitting. Emergency leak stops can usually be done the same day you call. Larger structural repairs may take 1-2 weeks to coordinate materials, permits, and crew availability. You’ll receive a project timeline in writing, and we update you immediately if rain or high winds require a schedule change.
What warranties or guarantees come with your roof repair services?
Every repair includes a written workmanship warranty ranging from 1–10 years, depending on the scope of work. If the exact area we repaired leaks or fails within that period, we fix it at no cost. In addition, manufacturer warranties on shingles, metal panels, or membrane patches remain in force because we are certified installers for major brands like GAF and CertainTeed. All warranty terms are outlined in the contract so you know your coverage before any work begins.
