FREE ESTIMATE

A roof replacement in Bear typically runs $8,500 to $24,000 depending on the size and pitch. We give you an exact number upfront with a written proposal. No surprises on install day.

roof repair
SAME-DAY

Roof Repair

Leak repairs in Bear 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
LICENSED

Storm Damage Repair

Storm damage claims in Delaware have a 1-year filing window with most carriers. Don't wait. We'll inspect your roof, document the damage, and help you file before the deadline. If there's no damage, we'll tell you that too.

new roof installation
TOP RATED

New Roof Installation

We install new roofs on new construction, room additions, detached garages, and covered patios. Our Bear crews handle residential and light commercial. Standard install time is 1-3 days depending on size.

metal roofing
GUARANTEED

Metal Roofing

Metal roofing costs more upfront at $12-$22 per sq ft installed in Bear compared to $4-$8 for shingles. But it lasts 2-3x longer and your energy bills drop 15-25%. Math works out over time.

shingle roofing
INSURED

Shingle Roofing

Designer shingles like GAF Camelot and Owens Corning Berkshire mimic slate and cedar shake. Higher cost than standard architectural, but the look is incredible. We install all designer profiles in Bear.

flat roofing
FREE ESTIMATE

Flat Roofing

Modified bitumen is our go-to for residential flat roofs in Bear. Two-ply torch-applied system with a granulated cap sheet. It handles foot traffic, thermal cycling, and Delaware UV better than single-ply at the residential scale.

commercial roofing
SAME-DAY

Commercial Roofing

Our Bear commercial crews handle everything from small retail strip centers to 50,000 sq ft warehouses. TPO, EPDM, modified bitumen, metal. We're certified installers for all major commercial membrane systems.

gutter installation
LICENSED

Gutter Installation

Gutters aren't glamorous, but they're protecting your foundation, your fascia, and your landscaping. We install seamless aluminum gutters custom-formed on-site from a roll of coil stock. No seams means no leaks.

roof inspection
TOP RATED

Roof Inspection

Annual roof inspections catch small problems before they become expensive ones. A cracked pipe boot is a $150 fix. Ignoring it means $3,000 in ceiling and wall water damage. We recommend an inspection every 2-3 years for roofs under 10 years old, and annually after that.

emergency roof repair
GUARANTEED

Emergency Roof Repair

Emergency roof repairs for active water intrusion follow a strict protocol: tarping with reinforced polyethylene sheeting secured to the roof deck, interior water extraction guidance, and temporary flashing at penetrations. Our Bear emergency crews carry 20x30 tarps, 2x4 nailer boards, and masonry anchors for various deck types. Permanent repairs are scheduled within 48-72 hours once materials are sourced.

skylight installation
INSURED

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 Bear home gets more light, better insulation, and a proper warranty.

How It Works

Free Roof Inspection

Our inspector walks the roof looking at shingle condition, flashing integrity, vent function, and signs of moisture underneath. 30-45 minutes for most Bear homes.

2

Transparent Pricing

Our Bear estimator builds your proposal same-day in most cases. Includes material options, warranty comparison, and a realistic timeline for your specific roof.

3

Roof Goes On

Crew shows up on time with all materials pre-staged. Tarps go down, old roof comes off, new roof goes on. Most Bear homes are done in a single day.

4

Final Walkthrough

Our project manager does a final inspection against the manufacturer's installation checklist. We register your warranty the same day. You get the paperwork within a week.

"I got a new metal roof. Standing seam in charcoal. Not cheap, but it looks like a completely different house. Their metal crew clearly knows what they're doing. Seams are dead straight."

"Couldn't believe how clean the job site was when they left. Three passes with the magnet, swept the driveway, cleaned the gutters out. My wife said the yard looked better than before they showed up."

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

We install GAF Timberline HDZ, Owens Corning Duration, and CertainTeed Landmark. The three most popular architectural shingles in the country. All three are solid choices. GAF gives us access to the Golden Pledge warranty (25-year workmanship). Owens Corning Duration has SureNail technology for wind resistance. CertainTeed Landmark is a reliable mid-range option. We help you choose based on budget, color preference, and warranty goals.

Manufacturer warranties range from 30 years to lifetime depending on the shingle line. Our workmanship warranty covers our labor and installation for the term stated in your contract. The best combo is the GAF Golden Pledge: 50-year material plus 25-year workmanship. That's what being a Master Elite contractor gets you.

Depends on size, pitch, and materials. Average in Bear is $12,000-$16,000 for a standard residential replacement with architectural shingles. We price by the square and itemize everything so you can compare to other quotes. Free estimates. Call (877) 586-1316.

Common signs: curling or cracking shingles, missing shingles after wind events, granule loss (look in your gutters), daylight visible through the attic, sagging roof deck, and age. Most asphalt roofs last 20-30 years in Delaware. If you see any of these, call (877) 586-1316 for a free inspection. We'll be honest about whether you need a replacement or just a repair.

Yes. We handle insurance claims regularly. It's a big part of what we do in Bear. Free inspection, photo documentation, claim filing assistance, and we meet the adjuster on-site. If the claim is approved, we do the work at the insurance-approved price. You pay your deductible and we handle the rest.
