Roof replacement

Roof replacement, torn off and fastened for this climate

A replacement from Charlestown Roofs means the old shingles come off. We look at the deck, replace soft plywood, and install underlayment, ice barrier where the eave needs it, and a shingle or metal system that matches the house.

Owens Corning architectural shingles are what we install most often. Sand Dune is the warm gray-tan homeowners in Clark County keep choosing. Steel Guard metal shingles are the metal option when you want shingle lines and metal shed. GAF architectural shingles are on the table when a match or a spec requires them.

What is in the scope

Tear-off and haul-away, drip edge, underlayment, valley metal or membrane, pipe boots, flashing at walls and chimneys, ridge ventilation matched to intake, and a magnetic nail sweep. Decking is an allowance we reconcile with photos, not a surprise buried in a footnote.

We do not roof over a second layer to make a number look smaller. The weight and the nails both suffer.

Local, not a national script

Ice barrier length is not the same in Paoli as it is in Jeffersonville. River towns fight humidity at the flashing. Ridge subdivisions in Starlight and Prospect fight valleys. The city pages spell those differences out one town at a time.

Questions

How long does replacement take?

Most homes are one or two days on the roof after materials arrive. Steep, cut-up, or multi-layer roofs take longer, and the inspection is where we say which one you have.

Do you offer financing?

Ask when we write the estimate. We would rather explain the current options than print a teaser rate on a webpage.

Can you match Sand Dune?

Sand Dune is an Owens Corning color we stock in our recommendations often. Availability still depends on the plant cycle, and we confirm the bundle lot before tear-off.
