We offer a free inspection to assess the condition of your roof. If damage is minor or isolated, we recommend repairs. If the structure is old or has widespread issues, a replacement may be more cost-effective. Key factors we consider include:
- Age of your current roof (20+ years often needs replacement)
- Extent of damage or wear patterns
- Number of previous repairs needed
- Energy efficiency and insulation concerns
- Hurricane resistance and current building code compliance

Impact-resistant shingles: Best for hurricane protection and insurance discounts
