Metal roofs, shingle roofs and honest repairs for Rockford, OH homeowners. Family owned since 2002, and estimates are always free.
Everything we do on a roof, done by crews who have been doing it the same careful way since 2002.
Old skylights leak at the flashing long before the glass ever fails. We reflash, reseal, or set a new unit and tie it in properly.
Small repairs get the same crew and the same care as a full roof. Free estimate, a price in writing, and the work done before the next rain moves in.
If wind got under your roof once it will try again. We fix the damage and close the edge back up so there is nothing left to catch.
Squirrels, wasps and water all treat a soft soffit as a front door. We close it up properly instead of patching over it.
Water runs along decking and rafters before it ever drips, so the stain is rarely under the hole. We trace the leak back to where it really starts and fix that.
Removing the ice is the easy half. We also look at ventilation and insulation so it stops happening every January.
Guards and screens so you are not up a ladder every fall digging pine needles out of the gutter by hand.
A careful walk over the whole roof — panels, shingles, valleys, flashing, fasteners — plus the attic side when there is a way in. You get photos and a straight answer.
Standing seam and metal panel roofs, measured and cut on site. We help you settle on a color, set the panels straight, and trim the ridge and valleys so the whole roof sheds water the way it should.
Porch roofs, additions and low slope sections that hold water instead of shedding it. We rework the flashing, seal the seams, and get water moving again.
We repair what the storm actually broke. If that is one slope, we do one slope, and we will not pad an estimate to make a claim look bigger.
We still shingle plenty of roofs. Cracked, curled and blown off shingles get replaced, and the valleys and flashing get reworked while we are up there.
A coating buys real years on the right roof and wastes money on the wrong one. We will tell you honestly which kind you are looking at.
We work around your hours, weekends included when that is what it takes to keep your doors open while the roof goes on.
An older roof deserves to keep its character. We repair rather than replace wherever the material still allows it.
When a roof is genuinely finished we replace it, and we say so plainly rather than dressing it up. Metal and shingle priced side by side so you can compare real numbers.
Hail bruises shingles and dents the softer metal on vents, valleys and gutters. We show you what we find and document it properly for the claim.
Storm damage does not wait for business hours. We get the opening closed, photograph it for your insurance, and put the real fix on the schedule.
A twenty year old panel roof usually needs fasteners and sealant, not replacement. We refasten with new washers and get you another long stretch out of it.
Underlayment, ice and water shield in the valleys and along the eaves, sealed penetrations, and proper closures at the ridge.
Metal is what we are known for. Since 2002 the bulk of our work has been standing seam and metal panel roofs, and it is still what most Rockford homeowners call us about. We measure on site, help you settle on a color, and set the panels straight.
We do shingle roofs too, and plenty of them. But if you have been thinking about a tin roof on your Rockford home, that is the conversation we enjoy most — panel type, color, trim, and what it is really going to cost.
Why people around Rockford call us back and send their neighbors our way.
The same family started this company putting metal roofs on neighbors houses in 2002. It has never been sold, franchised or handed off to a call center.
Somebody comes out, measures, gets on the roof, and leaves you a written price. No charge, no obligation, and no number that expires if you do not sign today.
Standing seam and metal panel roofs are the work we are known for. Color, trim, fastening pattern — we have done hundreds and we will walk you through all of it.
Beds get covered, tear off gets hauled as we go, and a magnet goes over the drive before we pull out. Your yard should look like we were never there.
You get a start date and we hold to it. If weather moves your job we call you, rather than leaving you watching the driveway.
Straight answers to what Rockford homeowners ask us most often.
Much less than people expect. Over solid decking with underlayment under it, a Rockford metal roof sounds about like a shingle roof from inside the house. The loud tin roof people remember was screwed straight to open purlins over a barn with nothing underneath.
For most Rockford homes, yes. A metal roof costs more up front than shingles, but it usually outlives two or three shingle roofs, sheds rain and snow better, and does not peel off in a hard wind. We will price metal and shingle side by side so you can compare real numbers instead of guessing.
Sometimes. If the decking is sound and there is only one layer of shingles, a Rockford metal roof can go over the top on purlins. If there is rot underneath or two layers already on, we tear off first — and we will tell you that before you sign, not halfway through.
That is most of what leak work is. Water runs along decking and rafters before it ever drips, so the stain on your Rockford ceiling is rarely under the actual hole. We work back to the real entry point, fix that, and check the rest of the roof while we are up there.
No. Estimates are always free in Rockford. We come out, measure, look in the attic if we can get to it, and leave you a written price. Nobody will push you to sign anything that day, and the number does not expire in an hour.
A metal roof installed properly on a Rockford home should give you 40 to 60 years, and standing seam often goes longer because there are no exposed fasteners. Screws and sealants on a panel roof want attention around year 20, which is a small job next to a re-roof.
