Roof Installation
We specialize in complete roof replacement projects using premium materials like Malarkey Vista and CertainTeed Landmark shingles. Our expert team ensures proper ventilation, ice dam prevention, and enhanced curb appeal. We handle complex installations featuring standing seam metal, synthetic slate, and tile systems while maintaining strict adherence to local building codes. Every installation includes a comprehensive inspection of decking, flashing, and drainage systems.
Storm Damage Repair
Our certified technicians provide rapid response for storm-related roof damage. We document hail impact patterns, wind damage, and debris penetration using drone technology. We assist with insurance claims documentation and coordinate repairs for granule loss, cracked shingles, and structural leaks. We replace damaged gutters, siding, and skylights during roof restoration projects.
Roof Inspections
We conduct thorough visual and technological inspections of all roofing components. Our evaluations identify early-stage wear, improper installations, and code violations. We utilize thermal imaging to detect moisture intrusion and provide detailed reports with repair timelines. Insurance inspections include documentation of hail damage and wind uplift patterns for claims processing.
Commercial Roofing
We deliver durable commercial roofing solutions for industrial and retail buildings. Our capabilities include single-ply membrane installations, TPO welding, and standing seam metal systems. We address ponding water issues through tapered insulation systems and implement preventative maintenance programs. Our team installs rooftop safety anchors for compliance with OSHA regulations.

We install seamless aluminum gutter systems in custom colors to match building aesthetics. Our designs incorporate leaf guards and oversized downspouts for optimal water management. We repair damaged fascia boards and install heated gutter systems to prevent ice dams. All installations feature proper slope calculations to prevent water backup.

Darrin was polite, friendly, and was amazing with our family. Our roof looks amazing, we would recommend using them to everyone. Amazing service and quality, we called multiple roofing companies and many did not return our calls. Hometown roofing answered instantly and sent Darrin out within a couple of days.

This is the third roof Hometown has installed for us. Jeff did a very professional inspection of our roof and gave a fair price. The crew did a very good job and thoroughly clean up after installation. I would highly recommend Hometown Roofing. Services: Roof inspection, Roof installation

The roofing crew was very professional, did a great job protecting the landscaping near the house, and cleaned up everything at the conclusion of the work. Jeff Jensen, the project manager, was excellent to work with, inspected the work, and promptly insured his punch list was completed after his initial inspection. I highly recommend Hometown Roofing.

Both customer service and work done were great! Had a hole in the soffit of a two story house in a very difficult location that birds had found. I had used Hometown roofing before because a friend had recommended so I knew that they would do a great job. They repair was done perfectly and quickly! Thankful for their excellent service!
