Your roof protects everything. When it's time to replace it, you need experienced contractors who use quality materials and guarantee workmanship. Christopher Riley Construction provides expert roof replacement across Rhode Island.

Signs Your Roof Needs Replacement

Most roofs last 20-25 years. If yours is older, replacement is likely needed. Visible missing, curled, or cracked shingles indicate deterioration. Sagging roof sections mean structural damage. Granules in gutters show shingles are breaking down. Leaks during rain mean water is getting through. Dark streaks or moss growth suggest moisture problems.

Why Replace vs. Repair?

Repeated repairs become expensive. Multiple leak repairs within a few years signal the roof is failing. Replacing a failing roof prevents catastrophic water damage, mold growth, and structural rot. A new roof increases home value—you recoup 60-75% of replacement cost when selling. Insurance may require replacement after major damage.

Roof Replacement Process

We start with a free inspection and estimate. We remove old roofing carefully to prevent debris and damage. We inspect and repair any damaged decking or framing. We install new underlayment for water protection. We install new shingles, flashing, and gutters. We perform final inspection and cleanup. We provide warranty coverage on materials and workmanship.

Material Options

Asphalt shingles are affordable, durable 20-25 years, and come in many colors. Metal roofing lasts 40-70 years, withstands harsh weather, and reflects heat for energy savings. Composite shingles mimic wood or slate appearance with better durability and lower maintenance. We help you choose based on budget, climate, and aesthetic goals.

Roof Replacement Cost

Cost depends on roof size, pitch, material choice, and existing condition. Average residential replacement: $8,000-$15,000. Metal roofing costs more upfront but lasts longer. Asphalt is most affordable. We provide detailed written estimates with no surprises. Most homeowners finance replacement through insurance claims or payment plans.

Warranty Coverage

We provide 10-year workmanship warranty on all replacements. Material manufacturers provide 20-40 year warranties depending on shingle type. We register your warranty so you're protected long-term. Our warranty covers leaks, defects, and material failure.
