Our Services
Our Roofing Services
Professional Roofing solutions for residential and commercial properties in Ithaca.
Roof Replacement
We handle the whole replacement from permits to final inspection. Our Ithaca office pulls the permit, coordinates the dumpster, runs the crew, and schedules the building inspector. You sign the contract and we handle the rest.
Roof Repair
Leak repairs in Ithaca start at $350 for a simple fix. We find the source with a water test or thermal scan, repair the damage, and warranty the work. If the repair costs more than 30% of a replacement, we'll tell you.
Storm Damage Repair
Our storm damage process: free inspection, full photo documentation, direct filing with your insurance carrier, meet the adjuster on-site, and handle the repairs once approved. We don't ask for money upfront on insurance claims.
New Roof Installation
New construction roof installation following IRC Section R905 and local Ithaca building code amendments. We calculate ventilation per IRC R806 (1:150 ratio reduced to 1:300 when 50% is within 3ft of ridge. Synthetic underlayment per ASTM D226, ice barrier per ASTM D1970 at eaves in freeze-thaw climate zones. Manufacturer-certified installation locks in the full system warranty.
Metal Roofing
Thinking about metal roofing for your Ithaca home? Good choice. We'll walk you through standing seam vs exposed fastener, steel vs aluminum, and color options. Free estimate, no hard sell.
Shingle Roofing
GAF Timberline HDZ architectural shingles with StrikeZone nailing area. The highest-selling shingle in North America. Impact-rated to UL 2218 Class 4 when installed with the full GAF Roof System. Our Ithaca crews install Timberline in the full system configuration to qualify for Golden Pledge warranty. ASTM D3462 and D7158 Class H certified.
Flat Roofing
Modified bitumen is our go-to for residential flat roofs in Ithaca. Two-ply torch-applied system with a granulated cap sheet. It handles foot traffic, thermal cycling, and Nebraska UV better than single-ply at the residential scale.
Commercial Roofing
We install Carlisle SynTec TPO and EPDM membrane systems with full Carlisle manufacturer warranties. Our Ithaca commercial roofing crews are factory-trained and authorized. TPO seams are hot-air welded at 900+ degrees. The weld is stronger than the membrane itself. Ponding water? We install tapered ISO insulation to create positive drainage per NRCA guidelines.
Gutter Installation
Half-round copper gutters with round downspouts. That's the premium install. We solder joints on-site using 50/50 tin-lead solder. Copper develops a natural patina in Nebraska's climate within 5-7 years. For aluminum, we use Spectra Metals .027 gauge seamless with Raytec hidden hangers rated to hold 25 lbs per linear foot of ice and debris load.
Roof Inspection
Free roof inspections for Ithaca homeowners. No catch, no obligation. We inspect your roof, hand you the report, and let you decide what to do next. If you need work, we'll quote it. If you don't, we'll say so.
Emergency Roof Repair
Fallen tree limb damage requires structural assessment before repair. We check rafter integrity, decking condition, and whether the ceiling joists below were impacted. If structural members are cracked or displaced, you need a framing carpenter before we re-roof. We coordinate with trusted Ithaca contractors for structural work. Insurance carriers require separate line items for structural vs. roofing repairs. We document both.
Skylight Installation
Skylight replacement is often better than repair on units over 15 years old. VELUX FCM curb-mount replacement skylights install on the existing curb frame. No structural modification needed. Low-E laminated glass with argon fill for energy efficiency. Solar-powered blinds available for light control. VELUX No Leak guarantee when installed with the complete flashing system. Your Ithaca home gets more light, better insulation, and a proper warranty.
