We provide free inspections and detailed written estimates before starting any work. Many repairs are covered by homeowners insurance if caused by storm damage. We'll help you determine if filing a claim makes sense for your situation.

This depends on several key factors. Consider repair if:

• Your roof is less than 15 years old
• Damage is localized to a small area
• The majority of your roof is in good condition
• Repair costs are under 30% of replacement cost
• You plan to sell within 3-5 years

Consider replacement if:

• Your roof is 20+ years old
• You have widespread shingle damage or multiple leaks
• You're experiencing frequent, recurring problems
• Shingles are curling, cracking, or losing granules throughout
• You've had multiple repairs in the past 2-3 years
• Your energy bills have increased significantly

During our free inspection, we'll provide an honest assessment of your roof's condition and recommend the most cost-effective solution. Sometimes what seems like a minor leak indicates more extensive problems, and we'll always be upfront about what we find.

We understand that roof emergencies can't wait. Here's our emergency response process:

Same-Day Response: When you call with an active leak or emergency, we dispatch a technician within 2-4 hours during business hours, or first thing the next morning for after-hours calls.

Temporary Protection: For severe damage, we provide emergency tarping to prevent further water intrusion while we schedule permanent repairs. This typically happens the same day you call.

Permanent Repairs: Depending on the scope and weather conditions, most emergency repairs are completed within 1-3 business days of our initial assessment.

Storm Response: After major storms, we prioritize customers with active leaks and safety hazards. Response times may extend to 24-48 hours during high-demand periods, but we'll keep you informed.

Call us immediately if you have an active leak, visible structural damage, or exposed areas that need protection. The sooner we can assess and address the problem, the less damage you'll experience inside your home.

Yes, we perform roof repairs year-round in Nebraska, including winter months, though there are some important considerations:

When Winter Repairs Work Well:

• Emergency tarping and temporary waterproofing (possible in any weather)
• Days with temperatures above 40°F
• Flashing repairs and metal work (less temperature-sensitive)
• Interior attic repairs and ventilation work

Winter Challenges:

• Shingle adhesive strips don't seal properly below 40°F (though we can use hand-sealing methods)
• Shingles become brittle in cold weather, requiring extra care
• Snow and ice create safety hazards and access issues
• Shorter daylight hours limit working time

For emergency leaks, we'll always provide immediate temporary repairs to prevent further damage, then complete permanent repairs when conditions allow. For non-urgent repairs, we may recommend waiting for warmer weather to ensure optimal results, but the decision is always yours.

Yes, we make every effort to match your existing shingles as closely as possible. Here's our process:

Color and Style Matching: We bring shingle samples to your home to find the best match for your current roof. We work with all major manufacturers (GAF, Owens Corning, CertainTeed, IKO) and maintain relationships with suppliers to source discontinued products when possible.

Important to Understand:

• Weathering effects: New shingles won't perfectly match weathered ones, but the difference typically blends within 1-2 years
• Discontinued products: If your exact shingle is no longer made, we'll find the closest current alternative
• Manufacturer variations: Even "identical" shingles from different production runs may show slight color variations
• Location matters: We strategically place replacement shingles in less visible areas when possible

If we're repairing a highly visible area and can't get an acceptable match with your current shingles, we'll discuss alternatives, which might include replacing an entire roof section for uniformity. We'll always show you options and let you make the final decision.
