Frequently Asked Questions

A new roof installation may seem like a lot of money initially, but it lasts a long time – up to 25 – 30 years. Additionally, we guarantee new roofs for 10 years on labor and our supplier GAF provides a 30 year warranty on materials. Replacing a roof is labor intensive including removing old roof, repairing any underlying issues (like rotted wood deck), putting down new plywood, a layer of roof paper and lastly the shingles. We have to cart away the old materials, clean up the area etc. Our prices include everything – no hidden costs.

The timeline for a project largely depends on the dimensions of the space and what we uncover after removing the old roof. However, on average, a project  takes no more than three days. 

The total cost for a new roof installation largely depends on the size, any issues we run into (like carpentry to replace rotted wood) and materials the customer chooses.  On average a new roof will cost a homeowner about $9,000. 

In general, the homeowner calls Michael J Harris and speaks with Michael (the owner). They will discuss any current issues the homeowner is concerned about. Together they will set a convenient time for Michael to come to the home and inspect the roof. After the inspection he will recommend a course of action depending on what is most cost effective.
