Our Roofing Systems
Asphalt Shingles
One of the most popular roofing choices across North America due to its affordability and ease of installation. Made from a fiberglass or organic base coated with asphalt, these shingles offer reliable durability, straightforward maintenance, and proven performance in various weather conditions.
TPO
Rapidly rising in popularity for flat and low-slope roofs, Thermoplastic Polyolefin (TPO) is a single-ply membrane known for its straightforward installation and energy-saving, heat-reflective surface. Its strong resistance to chemicals, UV rays, and general wear makes it a cost-effective, long-term solution.
Metal Roofing
Gaining popularity for both residential and commercial applications, metal roofing is made using materials like steel, aluminum, or copper. Renowned for its extraordinary lifespan, excellent energy efficiency, and contemporary style. Metal roofing can last up to 60 years, easily justifying the upfront investment.
Tile Roofing
A longstanding favorite for homeowners seeking timeless appeal and dependable longevity. Crafted from clay or concrete, tile roofs boast exceptional resistance to harsh elements and an impressive lifespan, often outlasting many other roofing materials.

EXAMPLES of ROOF REMEDIATION
Low-Slope Roof Leaks from Improper Underlayment
Shortly after purchasing a fixer-upper, the new owners were shocked to find water stains and leaks throughout the living area, even though the roof was only 16 months old. The slope of the roof was 2:12—considered low-slope, which typically requires, at a minimum, a double-layer underlayment to prevent water infiltration. However, the house flipper had neglected this step, using a single layer of standard roofing felt that did not meet the manufacturer’s recommendations or local codes.
Corrective measures involved removing the existing shingles and underlayment entirely, then installing a proper double-layer underlayment system designed for low-slope roofs. By following best practices and adhering to the necessary code requirements, a watertight and durable roofing system was ensured for the owners.
Flat TPO Roof with Ponding Issues
A homeowner’s insurance company flagged concerns about a flat TPO roof that was just a year old due to visible water stains. Upon inspection, we found that the roof had improper drainage and significant ponding, with water consistently sitting more than a quarter of an inch deep.
Compounding the issue was the wrong flashing installed along the edges, specifically a gravel stop flashing that effectively trapped water instead of allowing it to drain. Because of the lack of slope, the accumulated water wasn’t flowing off the roof, leading to premature membrane wear and increased risk of leaks.
The solution required a complete tear-off, installation of tapered polyiso insulation boards to create a proper slope, and the replacement of the gravel stop flashing with a drip edge appropriate for TPO roofing. With the new slope and correct flashing, water now drains efficiently, protecting the home and satisfying the insurance company’s requirements for a sound and properly designed roof system.

GREAT PRICES!
We offer flexible roof financing options—no credit, less-than-perfect credit, or excellent credit—so you can protect your home with a payment plan that fits your budget.
Good Faith Roofing Estimate
To keep pricing clear and predictable, we provide a written estimate before scheduling that outlines scope, materials, labor/site protection, permits/inspections, disposal, taxes, and a schedule window. If hidden conditions are discovered at tear-off (e.g., dry rot or code-required upgrades), we pause, photo-document, and issue a written change order for your approval before proceeding. Your final invoice matches the estimate plus approved change orders—no surprise charges. Our aim is to help you receive the best value for your next roof replacement project.
As dedicated professionals in the roofing industry, we understand the importance of protecting both your home and your investment. By following a few best practices outlined below, homeowners can significantly reduce hidden costs, subpar workmanship, and last-minute surprises. Detailed documentation, open communication, and a thorough vetting of prospective contractors all go a long way toward a successful, stress-free roof replacement.
Best Practices for Obtaining a Roof Replacement Quote
Specify the Scope of Work Clearly
Make sure each contractor you consider is bidding on the exact same scope of work. Provide a written list of specifications, including underlayment type, number of vents, flashing replacement, and brand/quality of materials used. An “apples-to-apples” comparison helps you identify any unusual price discrepancies or missing items in a bid.
Establish a Policy for Unknowns
Dry rot or other structural issues may only become apparent once the old roof is torn off. Have a set rate (per hour or per sheet of plywood) spelled out in your contract. You’ll know the cost upfront if more repairs are needed than initially estimated. Clearly outline how the contractor will document these issues—photographs, written descriptions—before proceeding with repairs. This transparency helps avoid disputes later and ensures mutual trust.
Confirm the Square Footage and Layers
Verify how many roofing squares (each square is 100 square feet) each bid includes, as well as how many layers of existing roofing are being removed. If one bid is significantly lower, it could be because they underestimated the size of your roof or the labor needed to remove multiple layers. They may try to collect extra charges later via a surprise change order.
Address Known Dry Rot Issues in Advance
If you or a building inspector sees obvious signs of damage or suspects rotted components, ensure this is included in the initial scope of work. The cost of these known repairs should never be a surprise. A reputable roofer will detail exactly how they plan to fix any damage and provide associated costs upfront.
Ask for Proof of License and Insurance
Confirm that your contractor has a C-39 roofing license and carries general liability and workers’ compensation insurance. This protects you from liabilities in case of injuries or property damage and ensures your contractor meets local regulations and professional standards. Request a certificate of insurance to verify that the policy is active and valid for your project.
Evaluate Ventilation and Attic Conditions
Discuss how the contractor will handle ventilation—ridge vents, soffit vents, attic fans, or other systems. Proper ventilation extends the life of your new roof, helps maintain energy efficiency, and prevents moisture buildup that can cause mold or rot. Some manufacturer warranties require proper ventilation to remain valid, so be sure the calculations meet any specific requirements.
