Apex inspects the roof before anyone talks about money. You get the photographs, the findings and a written report you keep, whether the roof needs eleven days of work or nothing at all.

This is a page out of a finished report. Each part of the roof is shot close, named in plain words, and marked good, watch or fix. Nothing gets priced until all of it is written down.
Ridge capThe first thing wind lifts. We check every nail line along it.
Hip lineWhere two planes meet, and where they usually let go first.
Shingle fieldGranule loss shows here long before it shows in the gutter.
Drip edgeMissing on most roofs we inspect that are past fifteen years.
These four make up the bulk of what we write up in a year. Each one is cheap while it is small, and none of them stay small through a winter here.
Three kinds of work, one crew. Nothing on this list is subcontracted out to whoever is available that week.
Tear-off to the deck, rotten sheathing replaced at cost, ice and water shield six feet up from every eave, and the ridge vent cut open properly. Most houses are two to four days.
We find where the water actually gets in, which is rarely where the stain is. You get the photograph of the spot and the price to fix that spot, not a pitch for a new roof.
We tarp first, at no charge, and argue about the claim later. We meet your adjuster on the roof with our own photographs so nobody has to take anyone's word for what was up there.
A wind storm on the fourteenth took four courses and the ridge cap off a colonial on the west side. Here is that roof before and after, and the same math we use to put a number on yours.
Two inputs and the arithmetic left showing.
1,600 sq ft footprint x 1.12 pitch factor = about 1,790 sq ft of roof. 18 squares x $450 to $650 per square.
Ballpark only. A square is 100 sq ft of roof surface, and your firm number comes from a free inspection, not a slider.

After the storm
The Apex rebuild
Same house, eleven days later.
A February wind storm took four courses and the ridge cap off this colonial. We tarped it the same day, handled the insurance claim, and relaid it in eleven days. Drag the gold course line, or focus it and use the arrow keys, and the new roof lays back in course by course.
The same file, laid out end to end. This is the pace we hold on storm work, and the quote written on day three is the number that gets invoiced on day eleven.
She woke up to shingles in the driveway. We answered the shop phone, took the address, and had a truck moving before eight.
Four courses gone and the ridge cap with them. Tarp down and battened the same morning, no charge for it, before the rain came through that night.
We went up with him and handed over sixty photographs taken before anything was touched. Nobody had to argue about what the storm did.
Shingle, ice and water, new copper for the chimney. Dropped on the driveway on plywood, not on the lawn.
Our own four-man crew, start to finish. Final walk with her on the ground, magnet over the whole yard twice, warranty written on the invoice.
A 1926 colonial with two layers already on it. Written up the way every job here gets written up, so the next owner of the house can read what was done.
Filed the day the job closed. She has a copy, and so do we.
We come out, we go up, we photograph all of it and we write down what we find. If the roof has ten good years left in it, that is what the report will say.
