Common questions
Can you work on our building after hours?
For many projects, yes. Tell us your schedule and we will plan the work to keep disruption to a minimum.
Do you handle commercial insurance claims?
Yes. We document storm damage on commercial roofs the same way we do for homes and work with your carrier's adjuster.
Is a coating cheaper than replacing our flat roof?
Usually, if the existing roof is still sound. A coating will not fix a roof with wet insulation or widespread failure, so we check the condition before recommending one.
Did the 2019 tornado damage roofs in Ellerslie?
Yes. The National Weather Service found that the March 3, 2019 tornado pulled shingles off several homes as it entered Ellerslie along Highway 315, and one home lost part of its attic and top floor. If your roof was patched after that storm, it is worth having it checked.
