How do I know if my roof needs repair or replacement?
Look for signs such as missing or damaged shingles, leaks, sagging, or granule loss. A professional inspection can confirm the best course of action.

How long does it take to install a new roof?
Most residential roof installations take 1–2 days, depending on size and weather. Larger or more complex roofs, like commercial ones, may take weeks or months.

Common repairs include replacing missing shingles, fixing leaks, patching flashing, repairing soffits/fascia, and addressing issues with gutters.
