locally owned roofing company

As a small, locally owned roofing company in Southeast Virginia, we understand the unique challenges our region presents, from humid summers to occasional hurricanes.

That’s why we trust Timberline HDZ shingles from GAF for our roofing projects. Let’s take a closer look at the benefits of these shingles and why they’re an excellent choice for your home.

Superior Durability

Living in Hampton Roads means dealing with unpredictable weather. Timberline HDZ shingles are designed for advanced durability. They feature GAF’s LayerLock™ technology, which ensures each shingle stays firmly in place, even in high winds – an innovation that is particularly important in our area, where strong winds and heavy rains can be a concern. In fact, Timberline HDZ shingles are rated to withstand winds up to 130 mph when installed with the required accessories—perfect for homes in hurricane-prone regions.

Superior Aesthetic Appeal

A roof is more than just a functional part of your home; it’s a significant contributor to curb appeal. Timberline HDZ shingles come in a variety of colors and textures, allowing homeowners to choose a style that complements their home’s design. The shingles’ dimensional look mimics the appearance of wood shakes, giving your roof a high-end, polished appearance without the high-end cost.

Peace of Mind with Warranties

When you invest in a new roof, you want to know it will last. Timberline HDZ shingles come with GAF’s robust warranties, including their Lifetime Limited Warranty. This means that as long as your roof is installed by a GAF-certified contractor like Andrews Roofing, you can enjoy long-term protection against defects and wear.

Enhanced Installation Efficiency

For our team, the installation process is just as important as the product itself. Timberline HDZ shingles are designed with StrikeZone™ nailing technology, the industry’s widest nail zone. This innovation not only speeds up installation but also ensures precise nailing, which enhances the roof’s overall integrity. A quicker, more accurate installation means fewer disruptions for you and a roof that’s built to last.

Eco-Friendly Roofing Solution

We know many homeowners are looking for sustainable options, and Timberline HDZ shingles check that box as well. They are designed with an emphasis on sustainability, meeting some of the industry’s highest standards for recycled content. Additionally, the shingles’ long lifespan helps reduce waste by minimizing the need for frequent roof replacements.

Your roof is obviously a critical component of your home’s structure, and having a new roof installed is a major investment. Even small roofing repairs are important to the integrity of your home. That’s why choosing a roofing contractor shouldn’t be a decision that is taken lightly.

You Get What You Pay For

This is the first thing to keep in mind. It’s typical and understandable of homeowners to be looking for the best price, but be wary of an estimate that is significantly lower than what you’ve researched or than what other contractors have quoted you. As with most things, you get what you pay for with roofing, and a cheap job equals cheap materials, inexperienced labor, bad project management or nonexistent customer service. Your roof is an investment and if you invest in quality, it will likely be the only time you’ll ever need to do it.

Licensed and Insured

We cannot stress how important it is to ensure that your roofing contractor is licensed and insured. There’s a reason you aren’t going to try to tackle reroofing your home yourself and that’s because it can be a dangerous job. Reputable roofing companies will not only have the proper safety equipment, tools and training, they’ll also have insurance on all their employees in case anyone is hurt on the job. They will be licensed and will be able to provide proof of this. They will also file for all appropriate permits required in your city or county. If these things aren’t handled properly by the roofing company, you could be held liable for injuries or work that isn’t to code.

Get It in Writing

When having any work done other than smaller service-related repairs, make sure that everything about your roofing job is put in writing in a contract agreement. This includes price, timeline, warranties or guarantees, materials, safety procedures and liability, clean up methods, and financing terms if applicable. Having a well-written contract protects both you and the contractor and assures that everyone is on the same page about the project.

Warranties and Guarantees

When having a new roof installed, there should be warranties for the materials themselves. Product manufacturers, depending on the type and grade of roofing materials selected, will provide a limited warranty anywhere from one year to a lifetime. Make sure the roofing company you engage goes over the warranties for the materials you choose in detail. However, a reputable roofing contractor will also offer a guarantee on their own work. At Andrews Roofing we provide our clients with a workmanship warranty for up to ten years on new installations.

Reputation is Key

Do your research on the companies from whom you’re getting quotes. Look at their website, review sites and ask around your neighborhood. Has the company been in business for awhile? While all businesses have to start somewhere, it is ideal to hire a company that has been working in your area for long enough to have earned a good reputation.

Locally Owned

A locally-owned company is also a plus, as they will know the issues and best practices for your specific location. In Hampton Roads, it’s critical to engage a roofing company that understands the issues that can arise from hurricanes, nor’easters, humidity and salt air. A local company can provide the best advice for your specific situation, but they will also be working hard to maintain and uphold their local reputation. This is their community also, after all.
