Louisiana's housing stock, especially in areas like New Orleans, often features lighter-weight roofing materials suited to warmer climates, but these can be vulnerable to severe weather. When you need a roof replacement, we start by inspecting your current roof for signs of wear, lifting shingles, or water damage. We then discuss durable, wind-resistant material options that are well-suited to Louisiana's climate. Our replacement process includes removing old layers, ensuring the underlying structure is sound, and installing a new, watertight roof system designed for longevity and protection against tropical storms.

It generally excludes damage from normal wear and tear or lack of maintenance. We can assist with documenting the damage for your insurance claim.
What is involved in a roof replacement?
A roof replacement involves removing all existing roofing materials down to the roof deck. We then inspect the deck for any rot or damage and make repairs as needed.
