Questions & Answers Frequently Asked Questions
Does my roof need to be replaced or can it be repaired?
In most cases, leaking roofs do not need to be replaced unless they are really old. Missing, cracked, or broken shingles can be repaired and replaced to stop a leak while roofs with multiple leaks or widespread issues should be replaced.
Can I repair the roof myself?
Some small jobs can be handled by DIY homeowners. However, major roof work or replacement can be a very complex process that requires training and should be left to the professionals.
How long will my roof last?
Many factors go into how long a roof will last such as the type of material used and climate conditions. Most roofs are designed to last 15 - 25 years.
What size hail is damaging to roofs?

It could take anywhere from a few hours to a few days depending on the size and scope of the project.
