We inspect the whole roof and give you a clear written estimate, with no pressure.
A new roof should be one clean day of work, not a week of noise and nails in the yard. Our crews complete most full roof replacements in a single day, from tear off to final cleanup, on homes across Pittsburgh from Squirrel Hill and Brookline to Mount Lebanon, Bethel Park and Upper St. Clair. You get a roof built for Pittsburgh weather and a crew that leaves the property the way they found it.
A roof is a system, not just shingles. Every replacement we do includes these four layers of protection.
Old shingles removed down to the decking so nothing is hidden underneath.
Every board inspected, and soft or rotted wood replaced before anything goes on.
Extra protection at eaves, valleys and other spots where leaks start.
Intake and exhaust vents balanced so the attic stays dry and the roof lasts.
We will tell you honestly if a repair will do. These are the signs we look for before we recommend a full replacement.
Most replacements take one day. Here is how that day goes, from the first truck to the final walkthrough.
We cover landscaping and set tarps so debris lands where it belongs.
The old roof comes off down to the decking, one section at a time.
Soft or rotted boards are replaced so the new roof sits on solid wood.
Ice and water shield and synthetic underlayment go down before shingles.
Shingles, drip edge, flashing and vents are installed and checked.
We haul everything away and run magnetic sweeps for nails.
The shingles are what you see, but the work underneath decides how long a roof lasts. We inspect every board of decking, install ice and water shield where leaks start, lay synthetic underlayment and balance the attic ventilation before the first shingle goes on. You choose the shingle color and style during your free estimate. To see how long a new roof should last here, read how often roofs need to be replaced in Pittsburgh.
A younger roof with one problem area can often be fixed instead.
Hail and wind damage may be covered by your homeowners insurance.
Word for word from homeowners who had their roof replaced by our crews.
Alan Construction did a great job on our roof! They communicated well, got the job done in one day, and quoted me a fair price. I had part of my roof done a few years ago and they matched the shingle color exactly. They also sealed a vent for me on the part of the roof they weren't responsible for at no cost. My parents are getting their roof done next year and will definitely be using Alan Construction! I highly recommend.
What a positive experience! Alan was thorough in his assessment of my roof, while providing a transparent explanation along with a fair estimate for replacement. He sent a hard working team, lead by Fernando, to execute one hell of a single-day job with minimal interruption. Everyone was professional and courteous every step of the way. I cannot recommend more highly!
