"Left the site perfectly clean"

The entire re-roofing project was extremely smooth from estimate to the actual work. Our experience manager kept us informed before and during the project. Our house is surrounded by valuable trees and shrubs which were carefully protected during the work. Elias and his crew did a great job and left the site perfectly clean.

- William S.

"They went above and beyond"

We found a small leak in our roof and called several different roofing companies. Valentine came out to take a look and even put a temporary fix on the roof for free so that we wouldn't have to worry about the coming rain. That right there sold us on using them as they went above and beyond any other roofing company that came out.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does a new roof cost?

The cost of a roof replacement depends on several factors. The roofing material chosen, the size, slope, and the existing material all factor into the cost of a roof. When deciding, there is more to consider than just the price. Take into account the resale value of the roof, the longevity, and ease of maintenance, as well as curb appeal, as they all contribute to the value of your home and should be factored in when purchasing a roof replacement. The best way to ensure that you are not paying too much is to GET THREE BIDS, JUST MAKE SURE ONE OF THEM IS VALENTINE ROOFING!®

When should I replace my roof?

In the Northwest, the average life of a roof is roughly 17 to 22 years old. However, there are indicators other than age that a roof is at the end of its useful life. Over time, your roof will start to show signs of aging. These signs include missing granules on shingles, visible fiberglass matting, cracking, bubbling, curling, or buckling shingles. If there are missing shingles, it’s typically a sign that the roof is ready to be replaced. Moss build-up, serious weather events, plastic accessories, and more can lead to premature failure and reduce life expectancy. If you start to notice any of these signs, it may be time to call a reputable roofing contractor to provide you with a free estimate for roof replacement.

What should I look for in a professional roofing contractor?

Looking for a roof replacement contractor can be stressful, but finding the right contractor for the job will make the process seamless and easy. When vetting contractors for any home improvement project, you should ensure they are appropriately licensed, bonded, and insured rather than just finding the roofing contractor nearest you.

A reputable roofer will maintain memberships with industry associations, such as the Roofing Contractor Association of Washington (RCAW). These associations hold their members to high standards in quality and service and often offer special training opportunities to their contractors. Some third-party companies offer insight into the kind of experience you can expect from a contractor, such as the Better Business Bureau or Angie’s List.

Beyond looking at certifications and reviews, you should find a roofing contractor that is responsive to your initial inquiry and makes scheduling your estimate easy. A knowledgeable contractor can provide a roofing estimate fairly quickly once at your home and should always offer transparent pricing right from the start. We promise you will always receive our best price forward within an hour of meeting with an estimator.

Do I have to tear off the old roof to replace it?

Some companies offer to install new shingles or other roofing materials over the top of existing materials on your roof. This practice is often called a “roof overlay” or a “layover” and is problematic for several reasons. Without tearing off the existing material, there is no way to provide a complete inspection of the roof deck itself. Potentially hiding or even creating underlying issues. Also, should your roof ever develop a leak, tracking with multiple layers is much more complex and may result in failed repair attempts. It's also challenging to address ventilation issues without removing the old roof. Beyond that, flashings and accessories have a limited life expectancy, and an overlay typically does not include replacing accessories or flashings. The roofing material will also have a shorter lifespan because of several factors, including additional environmental stress.

Other adverse outcomes caused by overlays are negative home value and a less attractive installation. In most areas, including the Pacific Northwest, a layover can detract from the value of your home, completely negating any “savings” you may have noted with the upfront cost. These are just a few reasons why Valentine Roofing always performs a complete tear-off and replacement of every roof we install!

What kind of warranties are available?

Manufacturer and workmanship warranties vary dramatically from product to product and contractor to contractor. A standard warranty from a manufacturer is usually a limited lifetime type of warranty that covers the roofing materials for a certain period and possible replacement costs for a shorter period. Typically, this warranty covers material failures. Every roofing material comes standard with a warranty similar to this. Some manufacturers offer extended warranties that cover installation, disposal, and more for a greater length of time than the standard warranty. If you hire a reputable roofing contractor that stands the test of time, their workmanship warranty will be the most essential warranty you have. We offer industry-best workmanship warranties for every type of roof we install. These warranties are fully transferable and cover your home for the life of the roof!

How often should I maintain my roof?

Roof maintenance requirements vary. Most manufacturers recommend some sort of roofing maintenance to protect the material from premature failure. In the Northwest, some things to consider are your home’s proximity to trees, specific microclimate, distance from the Puget Sound or other saltwater bodies, and type of roofing material. We offer different maintenance plans designed for your home’s specific environment.
