Roofing Girard homes the way we have since 2002 — measured on site, priced in writing, and finished the way we would want our own roof finished.
From a single lifted panel to a full tear off, we handle every roofing job a Girard, OH home is likely to need.
A metal roof is the one that outlives the mortgage. We install exposed fastener panels and standing seam over solid decking and real underlayment, with around twenty standard colors to choose from.
Removing the ice is the easy half. We also look at ventilation and insulation so it stops happening every January.
Reflective coatings keep a metal roof cooler in summer and seal up the small stuff before it turns into a leak.
Hard wind lifts shingles and works panel fasteners loose along the edges, which is exactly where the next storm gets underneath. We refasten, replace and reseal.
One leak usually has company. We fix the one you called about and check over the rest of the roof while we are already up there.
We match the guard to your trees and your gutter profile, and make sure water can still get in where it is supposed to.
New skylights set into metal or shingle roofs, with the flashing kit the roof actually calls for rather than a tube of sealant.
An older roof deserves to keep its character. We repair rather than replace wherever the material still allows it.
After a storm we walk the roof, photograph everything we find, and write an itemized estimate you can hand straight to your adjuster.
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 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.
Full tear off, decking checked board by board, then a new metal or shingle roof over proper underlayment. You get the price and the start date before anything comes off.
Waterproofing details on additions, porches and low slope tie ins, where two roofs meet and most leaks quietly begin.
A shingle repair should not be visible from the street. We match as close as the weathering allows and blend the new work into the old.
Rotted fascia and sagging soffit let water and animals in behind the roof edge. We cut the bad wood out and put new in.
Backed out screws, split washers, rust starting at a seam, a panel lifted at the eave. These are our roofs, and most of the time a repair is all it takes.
Most roofs somebody has called a lost cause are not one. We repair what can be repaired, and we tell you honestly when a repair will no longer hold.
Low slope roofs fail at the joints and around anything that sticks through them. That is where we start, not out in the middle of the field.
Churches, shops, barns and small commercial buildings. We have roofed everything from a wood shed to a steeple.
We have never charged for an estimate and we are not about to start. A Girard homeowner ought to be able to find out what a roof costs without buying a sales pitch first, so we measure, photograph what we find, and put a real number on paper.
What people tell us most often is that we told them the truth. Sometimes that truth is that the Girard roof they were ready to replace has another eight or ten years in it and only needs the valleys resealed.
A family roofing company that has kept the same habits since 2002.
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.
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.
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.
If your roof needs a repair and not a replacement, we say so. Plenty of our best customers are people we talked out of a job they did not need yet.
Wondering about metal versus shingle, or what a new roof runs in Girard? Start here.
For most Girard 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.
Plenty of them. Most Girard customers choose from around twenty standard colors, and green, burgundy, bronze, black, gray, tan and barn red are the ones people pick most. We bring the color chart out with the estimate so you can hold it up against your siding.
Often, yes. Plenty of the Girard roofs we get called to look at need flashing reworked or a section refastened, not a whole new roof. We will tell you honestly which one you are looking at, and if it is repairable we would rather repair it.
Yes. Gutters, guards, soffit and fascia are all part of keeping the edge of a Girard roof dry, so we handle them along with the roof instead of sending you off to find somebody else to finish the job.
Sometimes. If the decking is sound and there is only one layer of shingles, a Girard 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.
Any dry stretch works. We roof in Girard year round, though we schedule shingle work for when it is warm enough for the strips to seal properly, and we watch the forecast so your house is never left open overnight.
