What’s Involved During Roof Installation
When you require a new roof, it’s certainly not something you can turn into a weekend DIY project with your buddies. Hiring a seasoned roofing professional is necessary for accuracy as well as for the benefits of a warranty if your roof has one. The last thing you want is to spend time and money on a roof that falls apart in a matter of months due to poor installation.
Step 1: Free Consultation
With a roof installation company like ours, the first step in having skilled roofers install a new roof on your home is taking part in a free consultation, which is the point where you’ll decide between our different roofing options and set a clear budget for our company to follow.
Step 2: Begin the Work
From there, our roof installation team will get straight to work on your project in the most efficient manner possible. After all, time is money and the faster we complete your project, the less money you’ll be spending on labor. Plus, we don’t want to be in your hair for long since respecting your property, and your privacy is important to us. Each day, we’ll be sure to clean up the mess so that even during the process, it won’t be an eyesore to the neighbors. In no time, you’ll have a brand new roof that we all can be proud of.
Not only will your home be protected from the elements, but you’ll also increase the overall value of your home, making roof installation a smart investment in your property in various ways. You can be sure that only quality materials are used in the making of your roof while finding peace of mind that your family and belongings will be safe and sound inside your home, especially with the help of an expert roof installation contractor.
Types of Roofing Available
Roofs for Life, Inc specializes in asphalt shingles, cedar shake roofs, tile and metal roofs, as well as roofs for flat surfaces commonly used in commercial settings.
Asphalt shingles are the most frequently used roofing material due to their functionality and budget- friendliness. Cedar shake roofs are made from cedar woods and offer a strong, durable shelter but can be susceptible to warping and water damage. Tile and metal roofs are less common but are incredibly sturdy and reliable.
All the roofing types we provide are made with top of the line materials even though the primary factor considered by clients is roof installation cost. Asphalt shingles are the most affordable option and are therefore the most popular roofing type. However, don’t be fooled – it’s still an excellent roofing choice. Cedar shake roofing and tile shingles are often chosen for their specific appearance. Cedar gives homes a more rustic look while tile can feel more sophisticated. They will be more expensive options overall and will probably affect your decision-making process.

When Ian struck in 2022 we had some hip and ridge come off. All the roofing companies didnt want to come out just for that.

It seems more and more difficult these days to find trustworthy people to work on your home. Getting an honest, reliable, customer-service-focused company that does quality work is like hitting the lottery. Roofs for Life is one of these. … More We initially contacted them two years ago when we called them out to take a look at our roof, which was 16 years old at the time (shingle) and had a small leak during Ian. Their guy went up on the roof and said we could easily make it last 2 or 3 more years by putting some sealant on and tarring over a few nail pops. He also said they could do it but it wasn't anything we couldn't do ourselves for less. What company is so honest that they tell you that rather than going after your money on the spot? When it came time this year to do the full replacement, we got multiple quotes and made sure to include Roofs for Life as one of them. Their quote was very reasonable and we worked with the salesman to make some adjustments and ensure that some things were being done the way we wanted. We are so glad we chose them. The team went above and beyond to do a first quality job and the supervisor even went up in the crawlspace to determine if we had straps and two or three nails and take pictures so we could reduce our insurance premium – this was not part of the deal and was not easy. The installation crew was first rate and took care to make sure everything was done right and that there was no damage to the house or driveway, and the supervisor took the time to explain what was going on every step of the way . They then cleaned the entire site when they were done. We feel like we hit the lottery when we chose Roofs for Life.

Roofs for Life, and Brad Beles in particular, made our roof replacement experience as stress-free as possible from start to finish. Whatever Brad advised us in the process is what happened. I had complete confidence in his advice and in … More his word. Need a roof? Call Brad and Roofs For Life, Inc. You'll be glad you did. Thanks, Brad!

I strongly recommend Roofs for Life . They did a fantastic job replacing our tile roof with a metal one . We had a great team who were both professional and courteous . They arrived each day on time and only left when the light was failing … More and after they had cleaned up each night . The owner Ed and his commercial VP Glen were deeply involved , making sure all was on time and too specification . Thanks guys for an excellent job.

I am very happy with Roofs for Life!Hurricane Ian devasted us all ! With a insurance claim you must get several bids! We were at our witts end on what to do and who to choose! From the minute our salesman Brad came out he knew exactly … More what to do and made us feel safe again! With all the quotes we got! Roofs for Life gave us top rated shingles and a better warranty! Roofs for Life did a wonderful job replacing our roof! I would highly recommend them! 5 stars in my book

I am Realtor and during a recent listing of mine we had an unexpected roof issue that came up during the inspection. Turns out the roof had basically no life left on it and it could not pass the 4 point inspection. The deal was going to … More fall apart unless the sellers were able to put on a new roof and put it on fast. We had only 30 days left until closing and it was right smack in the middle of the holidays. I reached out to several local roofing companies and decided to go with Roofs for Life and everyone involved in our real estate deal is glad we did! I spoke with both Ed and Glen and from the very beginning their customer service was outstanding!!! They both understood the situation we were in and assured me they could get the job done on time. I am happy to say that we closed on the house yesterday and I am not sure we could have done that had we not hired Roofs for Life. Not only did they get the job done on time but did so for a great price. Looks like this Realtor has a new “go-to” roofing company.

i'm not sure how my review got deleted. I will repost with pictures.I see the owner left a comment. He could have called me to follow up and find out what problems they've caused. My wife called to complain they sent someone out … More but didn't do anything about the damage they'd caused. Hopefully I can relocate the photos soon from an old phone.

Got a roof estimate about a month ago by Avery Martineau . He came out to do estimate of roof. He told me that he will have an estimate emailed to me by Monday. He came out on a Friday. I never heard from him again nor his company.

Ed and his crew are the best they real cared about my roof and family.

I called Roofs For Life, Inc. yesterday after hurricane Ian left the area. I had several roof panels loose or blown off. Called their office yesterday morning, and Ed came out later in the day.

Young kid came out, I was unavailable to answer the door and tells my wife your tile roof is 16 you only have 2 more years left on expected life so I'm not going to be able to do a repair… No physical inspection was done! Completely … More tried to take advantage and lied to my wife! I got on the doorbell camera and told this kid to get lost (I was at least pleasant about it)! He saw the house and tried to completely take advantage and rip us off in my opinion! Tile should last 26-30 yrs according to a few other roofers I spoke with. So to state 18yrs I would "probably" need a new roof he should know if he quotes them that the average life is between 26-30yrs… just odd he didn't want to reschedule and was fast to say I'll quote you a new roof without ever getting on the roof!I then called the owner and notified him… I'd be very careful with these guys get other bids don't just "TRUST" what they tell you is accurate! In my case it was not, Two other companies said my roof is in the best shape for ONLY being 16 year old TILE… had I not had the construction knowledge I have and not spoke with two other REPUTABLE COMPANIES and just trusted this guy I could be out 60,000 dollars! I hope this review never allows this to happen again for them and everyone who reads it should do some research first!

Awesome service. Job well done in less than 2 days. They worked with us on when we needed it scheduled. They emailed us a detailed itemized list of what everything cost before we signed the contract. No surprise fees. Very professional … More
-
We just had Roofs For Life replace our roof and could not be more pleased. They offered a variety of high quality options at a competitive price. Workers were efficient and professional, completing all work in 2 days. We highly recommend … More Roofs For Life.
-
They did a great job installing our roof. Both removing the shingles and installing the new roof went quickly. They were also on the lookout for issues on our roof that would have cost us dearly later on and saved us thousands in future … More repairs. I would use them again.

When deciding to put a roof on our home we started by getting quotes from multiple companies. Teagan the salesperson was very helpful and punctual which seems like all salespeople would be but it was definitely not true in this case (one … More didn't even show up). They started on the roof about 10 days after signing the contract. It took about a day and a half to complete and the workers kept the place spotless. I had a concern that I saw on the roof a couple days after they finished and one of the owners "Glen" came out himself to see it and facetimed me to go over what I was seeing. About a week later we had our first rain after the new roof was complete and our back porch was leaking which turned out not to be part of the initial roof quote. Once again another owner "Ed" came out on a Saturday to see the issue and on Wednesday morning was back and fixing the back porch transition that was leaking. I know this review is long winded but I needed to explain why I think that Roofs For Life is an exceptional choice if your in need of a new roof. Thanks again RFL for the incredible service.
-
Ed is great came out looked gave me an honest fair estimate. Will definitely use him when the time comes
-
new roof has only been been there for four days very pleased with the work and treatment of the company
