Question 1

When can you start my roofing project?

Accepted Answer

We’re typically booked six to eight weeks in advance, but if you need to meet a specific time frame, we’ll do our best to accommodate your schedule. We understand that real estate agents and general contractors often require specific start times, so we try to stay flexible to meet those needs.

Question 2

How long will it take to install my new roof?

Accepted Answer

For a standard house, the entire process usually takes three days. The roof removal starts around 8am and takes about three hours. The new materials arrive the same day between 10am and noon, and the installation takes another day and a half to two days. However, the time frame can vary depending on the roof’s size and steepness. Steeper roofs can take five to 10 days, and more complex projects can take up to eight weeks.

Question 3

How much does it cost to replace a roof?

Accepted Answer

The average cost of a roof replacement ranges from $15,000 to $30,000. However, costs can vary widely depending on the scope of the project. We’ve done small repairs for $1,000 and large-scale roof replacements for $500,000. For an average house in an area like San Jose or Santa Cruz, you can expect to spend between $15,000 and $40,000.

Question 4

What types of warranties do you offer?

Accepted Answer

For most composition roof replacements using CertainTeed products, we’re able to offer a 25-year workmanship warranty due to our SELECT ShingleMaster status. There’s a lifetime material warranty on composition shingles, with a realistic expectation of 35 to 40 years. For other materials like tile, metal and slate, we provide a five- to 10-year workmanship warranty, depending on various factors.

Question 5

Why is roof ventilation important?

Accepted Answer

Proper ventilation is crucial to meet building codes and manufacturer requirements for keeping your warranty valid. Adequate ventilation also helps extend the life span of your roof by reducing heat buildup and moisture accumulation. Ventilation needs are specific to each house, so we’ll assess your home and recommend the best solutions.

Question 6

Can you install reflective products to reduce heat inside my house?

Accepted Answer

Yes, we can install reflective shingles, tiles or metal products that help reduce heat. For example, CertainTeed’s Solaris shingles have a reflective coating that reduces heat absorption. Additionally, installing plywood with a radiant barrier foil and proper ventilation systems like ridge vents can significantly decrease heat in your attic and home.

Question 7

Can you install skylights or sun tunnels?

Accepted Answer

Yes, we can replace existing skylights or install new ones with the necessary framing. We offer sun tunnels in 10-inch, 14-inch and 20-inch sizes. These installations are common and can enhance natural lighting in your home.
