Step 1 of 6

What best describes your home?

Different buildings need different crews, so this is the first thing a roofer asks.

No fee, no obligation, nothing to cancel.

01

Are you a roofing company?

No, and it matters that we say so. We are a referral service, not a contractor. The roofing work, the licence, the insurance and the warranty all sit with the independent company you choose.

02

How many contractors will contact me?

Up to three. That is a hard cap, not a guideline. Three is enough to compare and few enough that your phone stays usable.

03

Do I have to hire anyone?

Not at all. Plenty of people use this to find out what a job costs and then do nothing for a year. That is a perfectly reasonable outcome.

04

Do you handle commercial buildings?

Yes. Commercial requests go to contractors who do low-slope and flat systems rather than to residential crews. Say so on the property question and it routes correctly.

05

Is this really free?

It is free to you. Contractors pay to receive homeowner requests in their area. That is the entire business model, and we would rather say so plainly than pretend otherwise.

06

Is moss on the roof a problem?

Yes, eventually. Moss holds water against the shingle and lifts the edges as it thickens. Zinc or copper strip at the ridge suppresses it. Pressure washing an asphalt roof strips the granules and does more harm than the moss did.

07

Should I repair or replace?

Rough rule: if the covering has more than about five years left and the damage is confined to one area, repair. If it is at the end of its life or you are patching the third leak in two years, you are paying instalments on a replacement.

08

I have solar panels. What happens to them?

Panels have to be detached and reset. Budget for it separately and coordinate the two trades. Never put a new solar array on a roof with under ten years left.

09

How much deposit is normal?

A third at most, and never the full amount. Pay the balance when the job is finished and you have walked it. Some states cap the deposit by law.

10

Why does ventilation keep coming up?

It is the most under-sold part of a roof. Trapped heat and moisture shorten shingle life, warp decking, and in cold weather it is what turns snow into an ice dam.

11

How long should a roof last here?

Rated life and real life are different numbers. Here, ordinary rated life is a fair guide, provided the attic breathes. Ventilation and the quality of the installation move that more than the brand does.

12

What should I do to prepare?

Clear the driveway, protect attic storage from falling dust, and plan for two loud days. Agree in advance where the dumpster goes and who sweeps for nails.

Find out what it costs

No cost, no obligation, and never more than three contractors.
