Roof Replacement: Asphalt Shingle, Metal, Commercial & Flat
Our reroofs are built on one idea: in this climate the roof fails at the eaves, in the valleys, and from underneath, so that's where the money goes. We call it the Winter-Proof Install, and every roof we put on, shingle or metal, residential or commercial, follows the same checklist.
What's included in every RMHS roof replacement
- Full tear-off to the deck; no overlays, no second layers
- Deck inspection with soft or rotted sheathing replaced and photographed
- Ice-and-water membrane at every eave past the interior wall line, and through every valley and penetration
- Synthetic underlayment (high-temp under metal)
- New drip edge, step flashing, and pipe boots; we don't reuse flashing
- Attic ventilation verified to manufacturer spec
- Shingles fastened on the manufacturer's nail line; metal panels clipped and fastened per spec with snow retention where needed
- Manufacturer warranty registered in your name, 25-year workmanship warranty in writing
- Your Roof Records File: dated photos of every layer before it's covered
- Magnet sweep, full cleanup, and a walkthrough with you
Asphalt shingles are right for most homes: traditional look, lower up-front cost, 25 to 30 years of service here when installed correctly. We mainly install Owens Corning Duration and Malarkey architectural shingles, and we work with every brand and roofing material. Metal roofing, whether standing-seam, corrugated or ribbed exposed-fastener panels, stone-coated steel in shingle, shake or tile profiles, or metal shingles, costs more up front and lasts 40 to 60+ years, sheds snow, and is nearly immune to hail; it's the right call for steep pitches, rural and lakeside homes, shops, and anyone buying their last roof. Commercial and flat roofs get TPO or torch-down membrane systems with proper tapered drainage; we've done 200+ squares across four apartment buildings in under a month.
What we'll tell you straight: if your roof has five good years left, we'll say so and offer a cleaning or rejuvenation instead. If it doesn't, we'll show you why in photos, not adjectives.
