Roof Replacement
INVISIBLE FIRST OPEN
How do I know if I need a repair or a full replacement?
We cannot answer that without looking. An inspection is the only way to know. We will tell you what we find and give you a real recommendation based on condition, not sales goals.
INVISIBLE FIRST OPEN
How soon can you come out?
We work to schedule inspections promptly. Contact us and we will give you a realistic timeline.
INVISIBLE FIRST OPEN
How much does a roof repair cost?
It depends on what the inspection reveals. Minor repairs can be a few hundred dollars. More involved work will cost more. We give you a specific price after we have assessed the issue.
INVISIBLE FIRST OPEN
Do I really need a contractor, or can I fix this myself?
Some minor issues are DIY-able. But most roof repairs involve working at height, matching materials correctly, and understanding the system beneath the surface. Getting it wrong can make the problem worse.
INVISIBLE FIRST OPEN
Will the repair last?
If we do it, yes. We use GAF-certified materials and follow installation standards. We also tell you upfront if the repair is a short-term fix or a long-term solution.
INVISIBLE FIRST OPEN
I got a quote already — is it fair?
We cannot evaluate someone else’s quote without seeing the work. What we can do is inspect independently, give you our own scope and price, and let you compare.
INVISIBLE FIRST OPEN
Will my insurance cover this?
If the damage was caused by a covered event, your homeowner’s insurance may cover the repair. Andes documents findings in a way that supports the claims process.
INVISIBLE FIRST OPEN
What if there is more damage than expected once work starts?
We communicate before we change scope. If we uncover additional issues mid-repair, we stop, show you what we found, and get your approval before proceeding.

Gutter & Siding
INVISIBLE FIRST OPEN
How do I know if my gutters need to be repaired or replaced?
It depends on the age, condition, and what the inspection finds. Some systems can be repaired cost-effectively. Others are at the point where replacement is the better long-term answer. We cannot tell you which one until we look.
INVISIBLE FIRST OPEN
My siding looks fine from the street. Should I still have it checked?
Possibly. Some siding issues are not visible from a distance — especially around windows, corners, and transitions where seams can separate or caulk can fail. If your siding is aging or you have had any moisture issues near exterior walls, it is worth a look.
INVISIBLE FIRST OPEN
Can a gutter problem really cause that much damage?
Yes. When gutters fail to drain correctly, water collects where it should not — against the fascia, along the foundation, behind siding. The damage from prolonged moisture exposure can be significantly more expensive than the original gutter fix.
INVISIBLE FIRST OPEN
Can damaged siding cause interior problems?
Yes. When siding fails at transitions or develops cracks that allow moisture infiltration, water can reach the sheathing and framing. By the time it shows up inside, the damage has usually been building for a while.
INVISIBLE FIRST OPEN
Do you install seamless gutters?
Yes. Seamless gutters are custom-formed on-site to fit your home and have fewer seams where leaks can develop. We can explain the options during the inspection.
INVISIBLE FIRST OPEN
Do I need to address gutters and siding at the same time?
Not necessarily. They are separate systems. We will let you know if there is a reason to coordinate them, but you are not required to do both at once.
INVISIBLE FIRST OPEN
What does gutter or siding work typically cost?
It varies based on the scope of the project — linear footage, material type, number of stories, and what the inspection finds beneath the surface. We give you a specific price after we have assessed the situation, not before.
