FAQs
What does âUpfront Pricingâ mean for my roofing project in Rutledge?
Upfront Pricing means you receive a written, item-by-item estimate before any work begins. The document shows labor, materials, permits, disposal, and taxes, so you know the exact cost on day oneâno hidden fees or surprise add-ons. If you later request a change (for example, a different shingle style), we issue a revised quote for your approval before moving forward.
How do you calculate the cost of a new roof or repair job?
Our estimator measures your roofâs square footage, slope, and complexity, then factors in material choice, local permit fees, and labor hours. We use current supplier pricing for shingles, underlayment, flashing, and ventilation components to create a fixed price. Because weâre locally based in Rutledge, we can leverage regional supplier discounts and keep travel costs lowâsavings we pass directly to you.
What roofing materials do you recommend for homes in Rutledgeâs climate, and how do they affect price?
Asphalt architectural shingles remain the most popular due to their balance of durability and affordability. Metal roofing is excellent for energy efficiency and longevity but costs 2â3 times more up front. For historic homes near downtown Rutledge, we also install synthetic slate that mimics traditional slate at roughly half the weight and price. During your consultation, we compare life-cycle costs so you can choose the best fit for your budget and maintenance goals.
How quickly can you start and finish my roof once I accept the quote?
Most projects are scheduled within 1â2 weeks of contract signing, subject to weather and material availability. A typical single-family roof replacement takes 1â3 days; complex roofs or metal systems may take up to a week. We provide a detailed timeline in writing and communicate daily progress updates so you always know whatâs next.
What warranties and guarantees come with your âRoofing Done Rightâ service?
You receive a dual warranty package: 1) the manufacturerâs material warrantyâup to 50 years on premium shingles or lifetime on most metal panelsâand 2) our 10-year workmanship guarantee covering installation-related issues such as leaks or flashing failures. We also perform a complimentary inspection at year 5 to ensure everything is performing as promised.
Do I need to be home during the roofing work, and how will you protect my property?
You donât have to be home, but we do ask that you provide access to power outlets and secure pets. We lay protective tarps over landscaping, set up plywood panels to shield siding, and use an equipter to catch debris before it hits the ground. A magnetic sweep is performed each evening to pick up stray nails, and we perform a final walk-through with you (or a designated representative) to confirm 100 % satisfaction before closing the job.
