What affects the price
Several things change the final bill when you replace a roof. The total area of your home is the biggest factor, followed by the specific materials you choose, like asphalt shingles versus metal or tile. We also look at the pitch or slope of your roof and how many layers of old material need to be pulled off before we start. If there is hidden wood rot or damaged decking underneath, that adds to the labor and supplies required.
About this service

You should consider this service if you see dark streaks or green patches across your roof surface. Regular cleaning helps maintain the integrity of your roofing materials and keeps your home looking tidy. Costs fluctuate depending on your roof’s pitch and square footage. Exact pricing confirmed free on the call.

What are the different roof tiles available?
Roof tiles come in various materials like clay, concrete, and slate. Each offers a different look and durability. Clay and concrete tiles are common but heavy. Slate is very durable but expensive. We can help you choose the best tile for your home's style and structure.
What are the best roof shingle types for Milwaukee?

Roofing tar is typically used for sealing small cracks or gaps. It's often applied around flashing or vent pipes. For larger repairs or full roof replacements, it's not the primary material. It's best for temporary fixes or sealing minor problem areas. Consult a pro for proper application.

Commercial roofing refers to roofs on non-residential buildings like offices or retail spaces. These roofs often have different designs and materials, such as flat roofs with membranes. They require specialized installation and maintenance. We can assess and service commercial roofing needs.
