Roofing

Avoid the $30,000 mistake. Get vetted quotes from real local roofers.

A roof is the most-overpriced project in homeownership. Storm-chaser “roofers” door-knock with FEMA-style scare tactics, lock you into bloated insurance claims, and disappear when the warranty matters. We match you only with vetted, locally established roofing companies.

Why homeowners overpay

Door-knocking storm-chasers don't carry their own crews — they sub the work out and pocket the insurance overage. Vetted local roofers (5+ years at the same address, BBB A+, real warranty) typically come in 22–35% lower for identical 30-year architectural shingle.

FAQ

Roofing questions, answered

How much should a new roof cost?

Asphalt shingle: $3.50–$7.00 per square foot installed. Metal: $9–$16/sf. Tile: $14–$22/sf. A typical 1,800 sq ft asphalt shingle roof installed runs $9,000–$15,000 with full tear-off, underlayment, and permit.

Do I need a tear-off or can I layover?

Tear-off is always better and often required by code if there are already two layers. Layovers void most manufacturer warranties and trap moisture. Don't accept a layover quote unless your roof is virtually new.

How long does a roof last?

30-year architectural asphalt: 22–28 years in most climates. Metal: 50+ years. Clay tile: 75+. Underlayment, ventilation, and flashing matter as much as shingle grade.

Should I file an insurance claim?

If you have legitimate storm damage (hail, wind), yes — but get a vetted, BBB-rated roofer to inspect first. Avoid any contractor who promises “your roof will be free” before an adjuster has even looked.
