Roofing has been the cornerstone of our business for more than 65 years. The experience and knowledge gained from working on all those roofs over all those years is a great benefit to us, but it is even more of a benefit to our customers, because they can trust that we know how to do the job right. We use only the highest quality materials available and state-of-the-art equipment. Our commitment to excellence has enabled us to qualify as a SELECT Shingle Roofer under CertainTeed’s rigorous process, which involves several significant educational and accreditation steps for management and employees, as well as adherence to CertainTeed’s exacting standards of quality. We maintain a list of satisfied customers which contains information on products and colors used on past roofing jobs, to aid in the decision-making process when choosing the right roofing product for you. You might find it helpful to visit CertainTeed's ColorView™ Plus site, where you can mix and match colors and styles on a selection of pre-mapped home styles. Please visit our Photo Gallery to see examples of some of our past roofing projects. We also offer custom metal fabrication for flashings and gutters with our computerized Autobrake 2000 CNC Sheet Metal Bending Machine, which bends metal as thick as 16 gauge steel. Whether you’re interested in new fiber glass shingle roofing, metal roofing, roof repair, low-slope (rubber) roofing or adding natural daylight to dark spaces via a Velux Sun Tunnel™ or skylight, we simply provide the best in products and services for your home... period.

Metal Roofing

A metal roofing system exemplifies how innovative thinking can use a proven product in an entirely new way. Metal is synonymous with strength and toughness, but as a roofing material, strength is only one of the advantages of metal. Now, thanks to innovation, this same durable material has been improved, modified and applied in a new way to meet the needs of the roofing industry. Metal roofing is surprisingly affordable due to the fact that a metal roof is a permanent one; the life-cycle costs are substantially lower than conventional materials. For aesthetics, metal comes in a variety of styles and colors to fit your personal preference. We’ve installed metal roofing products from Decra, Classic Products, Stongpanel and Pac-Clad.

Advantages of a Metal Roof

Can't rot, crack, split, break, burn or blow off
Engineered for strength from 100% metal
Special coating process resists dirt and environmental aging
Lightweight: less than 1/3 the weight of asphalt
Environmentally correct - made from up to 50% recycled material and are 100% recyclable
Energy efficient
Many styles, colors and finishes to choose from
It increases your home's value
