Roof replacement is one of the most significant investments you will make in your home, one that safeguards not just your assets but also your loved ones. But what exactly does a roof replacement contractor do? Today, we at Roofstar delve deep into the roles and responsibilities of a roof replacement contractor, your guardian angel in the roofing ecosystem.

Initial Consultation and Inspection

Before a single nail hits your roof, the journey begins with a detailed inspection of your current roofing system. Here’s what happens:

Spotting the Signs: Experienced contractors know exactly what to look for — be it weather damage, aging tile underlayments and broken tile, aging shingles, or leaks.
Consultation: After the inspection, the contractor sits down with you to discuss the findings and suggest the best way forward.

Detailed Estimation and Planning

Once you are on board with the preliminary insights, it’s time for meticulous planning. This phase includes:

Budgeting: The contractor provides you with a detailed estimate, helping you to budget appropriately.
Material Selection: Be it tile, shingle, or foam, a seasoned contractor helps you choose the right material that suits the Arizona climate and your aesthetic preference.

Commencement of the Roof Replacement

The actual replacement is a structured process executed with precision. Let’s break it down:

Removing the Old Roof: The first step is the removal of the existing roof, undertaken with utmost care to avoid any damage to your property.
Installing the New Roof: This is where your home begins to transform, as the new roofing material layers are installed systematically.
Safety Measures: Throughout the process, safety is not just a priority but a mandate, ensuring the security of both the workers and the residents.

The Aftercare

A roof replacement project doesn’t end with the installation. The post-installation phase is equally crucial, involving:

Cleanup: Once the new roof is in place, a thorough cleanup follows to remove any debris or materials left behind.
Final Inspection: Before declaring the project complete, a final inspection ensures every nook and cranny meets the quality and safety standards set.
Guidance on Maintenance: The contractor imparts knowledge on how to maintain your new roof, ensuring it stands the test of time.

The estimator, James, was very pleasant, thorough, and did a great job of explaining what was needed to repair our roof. We thought that the quoted cost was reasonable and decided to go with Roofstar. We are happy that we did. Juan Diaz and his crew did an outstanding job with the repair and cleanup. Everything was accomplished per the quote and at the quoted price. Very happy and will recommend Roofstar to any neighbors needing roof work.

I have a new roof today thanks to Roofstar. From the estimate with Chris with understanding the process. Able to talk to all top brass with the care and interest in sharing the process through the team that showed up and did The work. Always willing to answer my questions I am thrilled with the results. Thanks Jeff, Jose, Juan, and Chris. I would highly recommend your team. Your onsite workers were fabulous. Make it a great day.

Roofstar provided professional inspection and detail quotes on the repairs needed to be done for our properties. We collected a few quotes from different roofing companies for comparison. Roofstar repair cost was very competitive and reasonable. We ultimately chose to go with Roofstar because we felt confident that they would take care of the problems. They came back to correct the minor issue that we had and finished the job to our satisfaction without further questions. We would highly recommend Roofstar to our families and friends.

From start until finish, Roofstar Arizona was the perfect choice for our house. We were given a very clear and thorough quote for the work our 30+ year old roof needed; we could’ve choose to ‘band-aid’ key areas and spend less, or we could spend the money and fix it right. We had saved and knew we’d have to spend a good amount of money for the work, but Roofstar was professional enough to offer choices. We had a slight miscommunication with regard to instruction with the on-site supervisor, and though we were able to easily clear things up, Roofstars’ owner Jeff drove himself to our home just to make sure our minds were at ease. Excellent touch. The workers were courteous and very thorough with the work. They stuck to the time needed to complete (we had good weather), and our home has a new roof, ready for the next 30 years. It looks great, and we have the confidence knowing the job was done right. Great work, guys. Highly recommend this company.

….03/2020–an update–we’ve had a few rainy days since the roof work–and everything is in fantastic order. These guys did a great job for us, and I know they will for you, too.

Thank you Jeff. Your team (Juan Diaz and crew) did an outstanding job and we really appreciated the daily clean up. Awesome.

After a monsoon storm ripped off half our asphalt shingles, I got several quotes from Valley roof companies. Roofstar impressed me with their quote, attention to detail, and quality photos showing the job as a whole. I went ahead used Roofstar, who replaced the entire roof while I was out of town and did a great job picking up the trash, sealing the A/C unit, and affixing new drip edges. I had a small issue with the new trim not matching the old color and the owner, Jeff, was kind enough to come back out and paint the trim himself. Would I recommend Roofstar to friends and family? SURE! They stand behind their work.

Excellent service! They install some bird barriers that other companies do not. They explained everything in easy to understand terms. Very friendly and very knowledgeable. I would recommend them to anyone looking for a quality and reputable company.

I just wanted to personally thank both you (Jeff) and Mike for your help on this house. I appreciate that you took the time to schedule the repairs, confirm, and that your workers showed up on time and did a fantastic job! My husband is a general contractor, so we really appreciate it when a company stands by their word and delivers a great product.
