When it comes to protecting our homes and businesses, the roof is our first line of defense against the elements. Over time, wear and tear, weather damage, and aging materials can compromise this vital barrier. That’s why expert roof repairs are essential to maintain the integrity and safety of our properties.

Why Expert Roof Repairs Matter


A roof is more than just a cover over our heads. It shields us from rain, wind, snow, and extreme temperatures. When a roof is damaged, even small issues can quickly escalate into costly problems like leaks, mold growth, and structural damage. That’s why addressing repairs promptly and professionally is crucial.


Expert roof repairs involve a thorough inspection to identify all problem areas. This includes checking shingles, flashing, gutters, and the underlying structure. We use high-quality materials and proven techniques to restore your roof’s strength and appearance. Whether it’s a minor patch or a more extensive fix, our goal is to extend the life of your roof and protect your investment.

How much does it cost to re-roof a 2000 sq ft house?


Understanding the cost of re-roofing is important when planning repairs or replacements. For a 2000 square foot house, the price can vary based on several factors:


  • Roofing Material: Asphalt shingles are generally the most affordable, while metal, tile, or slate can be more expensive.

  • Roof Complexity: Roofs with multiple angles, chimneys, or skylights require more labor and materials.

  • Labor Costs: Local labor rates and the contractor’s expertise affect pricing.

  • Removal of Old Roof: If the existing roof needs to be stripped off, this adds to the cost.

  • Permits and Inspections: Some areas require permits that come with fees.


On average, re-roofing a 2000 sq ft house with asphalt shingles can range from $7,000 to $15,000. Higher-end materials or complex roofs can push costs above $20,000. It’s important to get a detailed estimate from a trusted contractor who can explain all components clearly.


We recommend budgeting for quality materials and professional installation. Cutting corners on roofing can lead to premature failure and more expenses later. Our team at Solomon Contracting provides honest, upfront pricing and helps you choose the best options for your budget and needs.


Signs You Should Schedule Roof Repairs Now


Waiting too long to repair your roof can cause serious damage. Here are some clear signs it’s time to call in the experts:


  • Visible Damage After Storms: Hail, wind, or heavy rain can loosen shingles or damage flashing.

  • Leaks or Water Stains: Even small leaks can cause mold and rot inside your home.

  • Aging Roof: Most roofs last 20-25 years. If yours is older, it may need repairs or replacement.

  • Energy Bills Rising: Damaged roofs can reduce insulation efficiency, increasing heating and cooling costs.

  • Granules in Gutters: This indicates shingles are deteriorating.


Scheduling repairs promptly helps avoid emergency situations and costly replacements. Our team is ready to provide fast, reliable service to keep your roof in top shape.
