Pricing
How we price a storm rebuild
Hail and wind jobs run from one slope to a full tear-off, so we don't print a price per square. We print how the number is built, and then the number, in writing.
What moves the price
The same roof costs different amounts because of the things below. The visit tells us which apply.
The size and pitch of the roof, and how many stories
How many layers of old roofing come off
The deck under it, which we see once the old roof is off
The material you choose, and whether the insurer's estimate priced the same one
Code items, permit and haul-away
Matching: siding and trim that is no longer made
What our estimate includes, and what it doesn't
Every line is named so you can set it beside your insurer's.
Tear-off, underlayment, edges, flashing, vents and the new roof
Cleanup, with a magnet sweep
The permit, if your job needs one
Deck repair at a per-sheet price written down before we start
Not included: interior finishes, contents, your deductible
What happens at the visit
We photograph every slope and wall, measure, and ask where you've seen water.
You don't need to be on the roof
Bring the adjuster's estimate if you have it
We tell you when you'll have our number before we leave
Hidden damage and change orders
If we open a wall or lift the old roof and find more, we stop, show you and price it on a written change order before the work goes on.
Nothing is added without your signature
When you get the number
A written estimate follows the visit. If there's an adjuster's estimate, ours is set out in the same order so you can compare line to line.
The supplement request is a separate document
Paying
Your deductible and the insurer's checks
The schedule is written into your contract.
Your deductible
It's yours to pay. We don't waive, absorb or rebate it, and it's on its own line in the contract.
At signing
A deposit to schedule the crew and order material. The amount is in your contract.
The insurer's checks
These come to you, and often to your lender too. We agree on dates in the contract, and a payment is due when its stage is done.
At the end
The last payment is due after the walk-through, when the short list is finished and the completion photos are with you.
Why no averages
We don't print a price per square
A single-slope repair and a full tear-off with new decking are different jobs, and the same house can be either after one storm. An average printed here would be wrong for most roofs.
What we can promise is the way the number is built: every line named, in your insurer's order, with the deck priced in advance. Ask for it in writing and compare it to anyone else's.
