Written scope, then the work
You get a written scope of exactly what we recommend and why. Nothing starts until you have it in hand and say go.

Repair or replace: how we decide
Most roof calls come down to one question: does this roof have years left, or is money spent on repairs money wasted? We answer it from the roof, not from the driveway. Derek checks the shingle condition, the flashing at chimneys and walls, the pipe boots, the valleys, the decking from the attic side where possible, and the ventilation.
If the roof has life in it, we tell you that and quote the repair. If it is at the end, we show you why in photos and quote the replacement. Either way you get a written scope and you make the call.
Shingle or metal
Architectural asphalt shingles are the standard for most houses in Circleville, Ashville, Chillicothe, and Lancaster: cost-effective, proven in Ohio weather, and available in colors that fit older homes and newer subdivisions alike. Standing seam metal costs more up front and makes sense for farmhouses, outbuildings, and homeowners who want a roof they do not plan to replace again.
We install both. We will tell you which one fits your house, your budget, and how long you plan to stay.
What a Silcott roof job includes
Tear-off down to the decking, replacement of rotted or soft decking, ice and water shield in the valleys and along the eaves, synthetic underlayment, new drip edge, new flashing where it is needed, ridge ventilation sized to the attic, and a magnetic sweep of the yard for nails before we leave. Manufacturer installation specifications are followed on every roof.
