BeforeAfter
Before and after on the same garage: moss-covered failed felt stripped, then a new felt flat roof with fresh trims.
A garage roof that had given up
Moss had grown across the old felt, the laps had opened and every shower was landing on whatever was stored inside. We stripped it, checked the deck and laid a new felt flat roof with fresh trims. Drag the slider to see the difference.

Honest advice, a fixed price and the family on the roof
People hire a roofer worried about three things: the price growing, the leak coming back and nobody answering the phone afterwards. The way we work removes all three.
- You speak to the familyThe person who answers the phone and quotes your roof belongs to the family that does the work. Nothing is sold on to another crew.
- Fixed written priceWe show you what is needed and put the price in writing. There are no hidden extras added on the day.
- Fixed properly, first timeWe find the cause of a leak, not just the stain, so you are not calling a roofer back for the same problem next winter.
- 10 year guaranteeEvery new re-roof is guaranteed for 10 years in writing, and we are fully insured.
