Roofer911 workers installing a new roof in Arlington, VA |
Arlington is a spectacular place to live, and the site of some truly American cultural and historical sites. Many people choose to purchase homes here, not only for that, but for the beautiful weather. But even in a good climate you need to pay attention to home maintenance issues, including roof repair.
We get on average, 201 sunny days a year. Overall, it is wonderful weather but did you know that UV rays from the sun can literally destroy your roof? While you are basking under cheerful skies, your roof is taking a beating. Shingles and roof sealants are manufactured with adhesives that break down and evaporate just from exposure to sunlight. Without proper care, eventually your roof will lose its resistance to water and wind. That means big trouble for the rest of your house. Water damage is very costly to repair.
We get our share of rain here for sure – about 44 inches annually. In addition, 7.2 inches of snow falls in the winter on average. This amount of precipitation adds to the wear and tear on your roof. Once you have hairline cracks in the roofing materials, rain water can enter. As it comes into contact with the internal structure of the house, it destroys everything in its path. Wood, metal, drywall, paint and insulation are not designed to withstand high moisture levels. In the cold weather, your roof will leak from melting snow if your attic is too warm. Along with the actual structural damage to the house, you run the risk of inviting black mold to grow, which can be deadly to the people living in your home.
You are probably asking yourself, “How much is this going to cost me?” This is a normal question. Your home may be the biggest financial investment you ever make, so you have every right to be concerned. That being said, the problems with your roof are not going away. They will only get worse and the cost to fix a serious water damage situation will shock you.
The best course of action when dealing with your roof is to talk with our experienced roofing contractors. We’ll inspect your roof for free and determine what needs to be done to make it watertight. It may only need a few patches to make it last several more years. It may need to be completely replaced if more than a third of the surface area is damaged. Either way, you get the peace of mind knowing that the roof above your head is going to keep the rain out of your home. It will also helps to keep your energy costs in check.
When we do any type of roof repair in Arlington, you are getting the assurance that your roof will never leak in that spot again. We like to say that the rest of your house could crumble and fall, but our repairs will remain intact! Ultimately, we are providing a safe living environment for you and your family, while reducing your maintenance costs. A solid roof increases the market value of your home and improves its curb appeal.
The sun, rain, hail, wind and temperature changes are here to stay. From the moment a new roof is installed, the elements begin to attack it. Sooner or later you’ll need to give it some TLC. Roof repairs done in a timely manner are less costly that replacing it, and can add another five to ten years to the life of your roof.

I called Roofer911 about a leak in the ceiling of one of my bedrooms and Steve, who is the owner, came out early the next morning to access the problem. He sent me an estimate via email in 30 minutes and had his men get the materials and come out to repair the damage that morning. I liked the fact that he told me if they found any additional issues while doing the roof work, they would fix it for gratuis. Steve and his workers were very courteous and professional. The only negative I have is that his warranty is only for six months and I think it should be for 12.

I had a leak this past week after some rain and snow. The source of the leak wasn't easily identifiable to me. I had concern about long term damage, and wanted to get it addressed quickly. I called Roofer911 on Friday afternoon; I looked at many different websites of roofers in the N. VA area, but I was interested in Roofer911 Infrared diagnostics...where was the water coming from, exactly; how could it be determined; and how confident can you be? Steve (one of the owners) came out himself on Saturday morning to meet with me and my wife. It was immediately evident to me he knew what he was talking about. I had done extensive reading, and Steve confirmed much of what multiple expert/authors had suggested. After looking at the roof, I mentioned to Steve that we had recently had an addition added 14 months ago, including a new roof on the entire house (even the "old" part of the house.) Steve said the roof should still be under warrantee, and I realized he was right immediately...I hadn't even thought of it at the time. Regardless, Steve still spent another 20 minutes with me, explaining where he thought the water might be coming in, using Infrared to show me where the ceiling was damp, looking outside the house at the shingles, and describing how the repair should be completed. Remember...this was all AFTER he told me it should be under warrantee, so he knew another contractor would ultimately do this repair. I felt bad...he drove about a half hour to my home early on a Saturday morning. His attitude never changed, from the time he walked in until the moment he left...upbeat, friendly, knowledgeable, and HELPFUL. I have owned 5 homes in 3 states over the past 20 years, and have dealt with MANY contractors. Steve and Roofer911 would be at the top of my list...trustworthy and reliable, two of the most important characteristics when selecting someone to do work for you.

We were extremely pleased by the efficient and professional manner in which the work was done! I would highly recommend Roofer911. It is clear that customer service is the highest priority for them--everything from the quick response and evaluation of the problem to the timely repair that was guaranteed to fix everything at the cost of the contract, even if something new was uncovered during the repair--it is clear that they stand behind their work 100%. I would definitely use Roofer911 again!

The crew repaired the wind damage so I could not even see that the siding had blown off. Thank you very much!

I was in an emergency after Sandy storm passed by my area. Roofer911 returned my call immediately and came to my house in short time to take care of my roof. I trust this company because they are professionals and Steve, the owner, is a very polite and educated person that really is concerned about people and provide a neat service, fast and professional. Thank you so much Roofer911 for your excellent service. This is a highly recomendable company and the prices that I have paid for the services (this is the second time I have hired this company) are affordable and according with the high service quality that is provided.

gutter installation
Great job as usual. The gutters were priced and installed in under 24 hours, and they and the new gutter covers look great. This is the third project Roofers 911 has done for me, all top notch. On the other two, Roofers 911 similarly responded on the same day to replace shingles that came off in a storm, and in the first instance, the job was done before the rain had even stopped. Email estimates and photos of work to be done and e-invoicing system is state of the art, a real boon for customers who cannot wait at home.
