Our Roof Replacement Services
Quality Workmanship and Products
We guarantee expert installation with top-quality CertainTeed materials, ensuring a durable and reliable roof. Our craftsmanship warranty covers roof replacements from improper workmanship, while CertainTeed provides extensive coverage, including materials, labor, tear-off, and disposal for up to 50 years against manufacturer defects. Additionally, our shingles are algae-resistant and come with warranties for 25 or 30 years, depending on the selection. These warranties are fully transferable to the next property owner for a period of 12 years after installation.
No Hidden Fees
You pay only for what you agree to. Typically, change orders are limited to unforeseen damages to decking uncovered during the tear-off process. Even then, we make sure to present you with the damage and get your approval before proceeding.
No Deposit Required
No deposit is required to start construction on your roof. Payment is only due once all work is finished to your satisfaction.
Cleanup and Respect for Your Property
We make sure to clean up the job site completely once the work is done and take care to minimize any disruption during the roofing process.
What is a Roof Replacement?

1. Complete removal of the existing roof layer(or layers).
2. Repairing or replacing the roof deck such as plywood. This could also include replacing rafters, fascia or barge boards.
3. Installing new roofing materials with proper flashing and waterproofing.
4. Updating of attic ventilation systems if needed.
5. Cleaning up the job site, and conducting a final inspection to ensure quality.
Benefits of a Roof Replacement
A roof replacement offers several benefits to homeowners, such as:
-
Improving insulation, potentially reducing utility costs
-
Enhancing a home's aesthetic appeal, increasing its overall value in the housing market
-
Reduced maintenance
-
Transferrable warranties add extra coverage and property value
Do I Need to Replace my Roof?
The optimal time for roof replacement is when it approaches the end of its lifespan. A 3-tab shingle roof typically lasts 15-20 years, while a dimensional roof can endure 25-30 years.
However, waiting too long can lead to increased risks of leaks or damage to the roof decking, potentially raising replacement costs.
Watch for signs like:
-
Cracked, curled, or missing shingles
-
Excessive granule loss from shingles, seen as black spots or granules in gutters or downspouts, which can cause clogging
-
A sunken or wavy roof appearance which may suggest compromised decking below
-
If neighbors are replacing their roofs, it may indicate similar build timelines

Frequently Asked Questions About Roof Repair
How Long Will It Take to Replace My Roof?
Residential roof replacements will generally take 1-3 days to complete, depending on your roof size and the project complexity. Additionally, weather may play a factor in the timeline.
What If It Rains During the Roof Replacement?
Our team will closely monitor local weather conditions and work with you to plan accordingly. If it begins raining during the process, our team will ensure your home remains leak-free by securing coverings to protect it from water damage.
Can I Remain in my Home During Replacement?
Absolutely! Residents can generally stay in the home during the replacement, but you can expect noise and vibrations throughout the home during the process.
What Materials Do You Use for Roof Replacements?
New Generation Roofing specializes in asphalt shingles. This is an affordable, versatile roofing option that our team has years of experience installing. We prefer to work with CertainTeed materials, which are backed by fully transferable warranties.
What’s the Difference Between a Roof Replacement and a Reroof?
Reroofing is frequently mistaken for roof replacement, even among professionals.
Reroofing involves adding another layer of shingles to an existing roof, primarily to reduce costs in waste, disposal, and labor. We do not offer this service due to concerns about quality assurance. Since the existing roof is not removed, underlying issues with shingles or decking may go unaddressed. Additionally, our preferred shingle manufacturer, CertainTeed, does not warrant any reroof work.
