Questions
Straight answers about roofs in Oklahoma.
These are the questions we actually get asked, answered the way we would answer them standing in your driveway. If yours is not here, call and ask.
Getting started
Is the roof inspection really free?
Yes, with no obligation. You get the photos and the written summary whether you hire us or not. If the roof has years of life left, that is what the report will say.
How soon can you get out here?
For an active leak we prioritise you and get someone out to stabilise it. For routine inspections and quotes we work around your schedule. Call and we will give you a real answer rather than a stock one.
Do you work on commercial buildings?
Yes. We handle low-slope and flat commercial roofs as well as residential, including seams, terminations, drains, and the equipment curbs that leak more often than building owners expect.
What areas do you cover?
Oklahoma City and the surrounding metro: Edmond, Norman, Moore, Yukon, Midwest City, Bethany, Del City, Mustang, Piedmont, and Choctaw. If you are nearby and not listed, call us anyway.
Licensing and trust
Are you licensed and insured in Oklahoma?
Yes. Every roofing contractor working for a fee in Oklahoma has to be registered with the Construction Industries Board, which requires proof of liability insurance and workers compensation coverage, and the registration has to be renewed every year.
What is the Residential Roofing Endorsement?
It is a requirement added under House Bill 1628. Since 1 July 2026, a contractor doing residential roofing work in Oklahoma needs a Residential Roofing Endorsement on top of their registration, which involves passing a board-approved exam. It is a reasonable thing to ask any roofer to show you.
Someone knocked on my door after the storm. Should I sign with them?
Take your time. Storm-chasing crews follow hail across state lines and are gone before a workmanship problem surfaces. Ask for an Oklahoma registration number, ask who handles the warranty in three years, and get a second opinion before you sign.
Do you offer a warranty?
Yes. Every job comes with a written workmanship warranty from us, which sits on top of the manufacturer coverage on the materials themselves. You get it in writing at the final walk, not as a verbal promise.
Storms, damage and insurance
How do I know if I have hail damage?
Often you cannot tell from the ground, which is the whole problem. The damage that matters is bruising in the shingle mat and dents in the soft metal: vents, valleys, boots and flashing. That takes someone on the roof with a trained eye.
Will filing a claim raise my premium?
That depends on your carrier and your history, and nobody can honestly promise you either way. What we can do is tell you before you file whether the damage is worth a claim at all. If the repair costs less than your deductible, filing helps nobody.
Do you waive insurance deductibles?
No. Absorbing or rebating a customer's deductible is prohibited under Oklahoma law, and a contractor offering to do it is telling you how they will handle the rest of the job. Be careful with anyone who offers.
Do you handle the claim for me?
We handle the roof side: documentation, meeting your adjuster on the roof, and reviewing the approved scope. The claim stays in your name and your control. Only a licensed public adjuster can negotiate a claim on your behalf in Oklahoma.
The work itself
How long does a roof replacement take?
Most single-family homes in the metro are done in a day. Steeper roofs, larger homes, and roofs with several planes and dormers can run into a second day. We tell you which one you are before we book the date.
Should I get impact-rated shingles?
In hail country it is usually worth pricing out. Class 4 impact-rated shingles resist hail better, and many insurers discount the premium for them. Ask your carrier what discount applies, and we will quote both ways so you can compare properly.
Can you repair just part of my roof?
Often, yes. If the damage is contained and the rest of the roof has life left, a matched repair is the right answer and we will say so. We do not sell replacements to people who need repairs.
What happens to all the old roofing material?
We bring a dumpster, haul everything off, and run a magnet over the yard and driveway so nobody finds a stray nail in a tyre later. Landscaping gets protected before the tear-off starts.
Maintenance and prevention
How often should I have my roof checked?
Once a year is a sensible baseline in this climate, ideally before spring storm season rather than after it. Add a check after any storm that dropped hail on your street, even if the roof looks fine from below.
What is the most common thing that fails first?
Pipe boots, by a wide margin. The rubber dries out and splits years before the shingles are finished, and water then runs down the pipe into the ceiling. They are inexpensive to replace and expensive to ignore.
Do I really need gutter guards?
If there are trees near the roof, they earn their keep. A blocked gutter has no capacity, so it fails in exactly the storm where you needed it. Guards reduce maintenance rather than eliminating it.
Why does ventilation keep coming up?
Because an attic that cannot breathe cooks the roof from underneath and shortens the life of everything above it. Balanced intake and exhaust is one of the cheapest things you can get right, and one of the most commonly got wrong.
