Signs you need roof replacement
What you might notice from the ground, or from inside the house.
- Leaks in more than one place, or the same leak coming back
- Shingles curling, cracking or missing across the roof, not just in one spot
- Granules collecting in the gutters or at the bottom of the downspouts
- A roofline that sags, or roof boards that feel soft from the attic
- Daylight showing through the roof boards in the attic
When a roof is past repairing
Most roofs can be patched for a while. The time to stop patching is when the problems are everywhere rather than in one place: shingles failing across whole slopes, leaks in different rooms, or a deck that has taken on water. At that point each repair buys less time than the last, and a new roof costs less over the years than chasing leaks.
We'll tell you which side of that line your roof is on. If a repair will do the job, that's what we'll quote.
What a replacement involves
The old roofing comes off down to the deck, so the boards underneath can be seen and anything rotten dealt with before it's covered again. Then new underlayment goes down, new flashing goes in around chimneys, walls and valleys, and the new roof goes on.
The gutters, the fascia and the chimney are all right there while the roof is open, so it's the time to fix any of them that need it.
Shingle or metal
We install both. Shingles are the usual choice on Mahoning Valley houses; metal costs more up front and suits people who plan to stay put. Tell us what you're weighing up and we'll price both. Homeowners can finance a replacement.
What's under the shingles matters
A roof lasts as long as the layers you can't see. The deck has to be solid and dry, the underlayment has to run in the right direction so water sheds over it rather than under it, and the flashing has to be new where the roof meets a wall, a chimney or a valley.
Ventilation matters too. An attic that can't breathe runs hot in summer and wet in winter, and in the Mahoning Valley that shows up as ice building along the eaves. When we quote a replacement, we look at how the attic is vented as well as at the shingles.
Before the crew arrives
Taking a roof off is loud, and the house will shake a little while it happens. A few small things make the day easier:
- Move cars out of the driveway and away from the house
- Take pictures and mirrors down from walls on the top floor
- Cover anything stored in the attic, as dust can fall through
- Keep children and pets indoors, away from where the old roofing comes down
- Tell us about anything in the yard we should work around
Getting a quote
The quote is free and comes before any work starts. We look at the roof, check what we can of the deck and the attic, and price the job. If you're deciding between shingle and metal, ask us to price both so you can compare them side by side.
If something only becomes visible once the old roof is off, like rotten boards under the shingles, we'll show you and talk it through before we fix it.

When in the year
Most replacements happen between spring and fall, when it's warm enough for new shingles to seal down properly. That's also when the schedule is fullest, so ask for your quote early. A roof that can't wait gets made watertight first, whatever the month.

Questions about roof replacement
How do I know if I need a new roof or just a repair?
If the problems are spread across the roof, a replacement usually makes more sense. If they're in one area, a repair often does the job. We'll look and tell you which it is.
Can you put on a metal roof?
Yes. We install metal and shingle roofs, and we can quote both so you can compare.
Can I finance a roof replacement?
On a house, yes: financing is available on residential jobs. It isn't available for commercial roofs.
Is a new roof loud?
Yes, taking the old roof off is noisy while it happens. Move cars off the driveway and take pictures down from top-floor walls.
What happens if the boards under the shingles are rotten?
We'll show you what we find once the old roof is off and talk it through before the damaged boards are replaced.
