We handle the whole replacement from permits to final inspection. Our What Cheer 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
SAME-DAY

Roof Repair

Leak repairs in What Cheer 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

Wind speeds over 60 mph cause shingle tab lift and seal failure. Hail over 1" diameter causes fractures through the shingle mat to the fiberglass reinforcement. Our HAAG-trained inspectors know the difference between cosmetic damage and functional damage. That distinction determines your insurance payout.

new roof installation
TOP RATED

New Roof Installation

A new roof installation starts with getting the specs right. Roof pitch determines your material options. Attic space determines ventilation needs. Local code determines underlayment requirements. We handle all of that before the first shingle goes on.

metal roofing
GUARANTEED

Metal Roofing

Standing seam metal lasts 40-60 years with practically zero maintenance. Higher upfront cost than shingles, but you'll never replace it again. Our What Cheer metal crews do residential and commercial.

roof inspection
TOP RATED

Roof Inspection

Our What Cheer roof inspections cover shingles, flashing, pipe boots, ridge vent, soffit, gutters, and decking condition. You get a written report with photos. If nothing's wrong, we tell you that.

emergency roof repair
GUARANTEED

Emergency Roof Repair

Most emergency roof repairs in What Cheer are storm-related. High winds rip off ridge caps and shingles. Fallen limbs puncture the decking. We respond fast, tarp the damage, and coordinate the permanent fix. Including insurance paperwork if applicable.

skylight installation
INSURED

Skylight Installation

VELUX FS fixed skylights and VS vented skylights installed with EDL flashing kits for profile roofing. The flashing integrates with your shingle courses per IRC R903.2 weather protection requirements. We cut the opening, frame the curb with doubled 2x lumber, install the skylight with factory sealant, and weave the flashing into the existing shingle field. Leak-proof when done right. And we do it right in What Cheer.

"Storm chasers were going door to door after the hailstorm. Called What Cheer Roofing & Maintenance instead because they're actually from What Cheer. Got a fair deal and a warranty that means something."

"Got three quotes for a roof replacement. What Cheer Roofing & Maintenance was the middle price but the only one who actually got on the roof and showed me photos. Everyone else just eyeballed it from the driveway."

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Most residential roof replacements in What Cheer cost between $8,500 and $24,000. The price depends on your roof size (measured in squares, where 1 square = 100 sq ft), pitch, accessibility, and material choice. Architectural shingles are $350-$550 per square installed. We give free estimates with exact pricing.

The shingles carry the manufacturer's warranty. Typically 30-50 years for architectural shingles. Our installation warranty covers any defects in our workmanship. If something goes wrong because of how we installed it, we fix it at no cost. Both warranties are in writing and we provide them at the final walkthrough.

First: put a bucket or container under the drip. If there's a visible bulge in the ceiling, carefully poke a small hole to let water drain into a bucket. This prevents the ceiling from collapsing. Then call (877) 586-1316. We do emergency tarping and temporary leak stops within 24 hours. The permanent repair follows once conditions allow.

Yes. We handle insurance claims regularly. It's a big part of what we do in What Cheer. 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.

Most residential roofs in What Cheer are done in one day. We show up at 7 AM, tear off the old roof, install the new system, and clean up by end of day. Two-story homes, steep pitches, or large roofs might take two days. We never leave a house uncovered overnight.
