Straight answers and careful work on metal roof installation in Big Rock, IL. Metal roofing is our specialty, but we do the whole roof.
Most Big Rock homeowners who call us about a metal roof want two things answered first: what it costs and what colors they can have. We bring the chart with the estimate, measure the roof ourselves, and give you a written price that covers panels, trim, underlayment and tear off.
When a Big Rock homeowner calls us about metal roof installation, the first thing we do is come look. Somebody from the crew gets on the roof, checks the decking, flashing and fasteners, and works out what the job actually needs before a number is ever written down.
You get a written estimate for the metal roof installation on your Big Rock home with the materials named and the price broken out, and that estimate is free. If we find something once the work starts, we stop, show you, and price it before we go any further.
What to expect once you call us out to look at your roof.
We measure the roof on site, count the valleys, hips and penetrations, and bring the color chart so you can hold it up against your siding.
Rotten decking gets replaced and priced with you before it is covered up. Nobody wants to learn about that afterward.
Panels are cut on site so the lengths are right and the ends land where they should. Longer runs mean fewer laps and fewer places to leak.
Ridge caps, closures, drip edge and gable trim finish the roof and keep wind driven rain and wasps out from under the panels.
Straight answers, no sales talk.
Much less than people expect. Over solid decking with underlayment, a Big Rock metal roof sounds about like a shingle roof from inside. The loud tin roof people remember was screwed to open purlins on a barn.
Installed properly over sound decking, a metal roof should give a Big Rock home 40 to 60 years. Standing seam often goes longer because there are no exposed fasteners to work loose or leak.
Around twenty standard colors. Green, burgundy, bronze, black, gray, tan and barn red are the ones most Big Rock homeowners land on. We bring the chart with the estimate so you can hold it against your siding.
Sometimes. If the decking is sound and there is only one layer of shingles, a Big Rock metal roof can go over the top on purlins. Two layers or rot underneath and we tear off first — and we say so before you sign.
Our reputation is just the roofs behind us.
"Tore off two layers of old shingles and found rotten decking underneath. They showed me the boards, told me what the change would cost, and let me decide before going ahead."
