What's included

What's included in a roof installation?

Every local pro does the job by the book, so it's done right the first time.

A proper measure

Your pro measures your real roof area and pitch, so the quote and the order are right - no guessing.

Solid decking and barrier

A strong deck, fresh underlayment, and new flashing go on first. This is what keeps water out for years.

Clean, careful install

Shingles or panels are nailed to spec, sealed, and finished right - not rushed.

A written warranty

You get a workmanship warranty in writing, so a problem gets fixed on them, not you.
