Common questions Your Neighbors Are asking

How Long Will It Take To Replace My Roof?

The standard residential roof replacement is completed in a single day, weather permitting. We'll keep you updated with progress texts throughout the entire process, so you're never left guessing!

How Much Does A New Roof Cost?

Every roof is different so there is no single number that applies to every home. Cost is driven by the size of your roof, the pitch, the shingle grade you choose, and whether the decking underneath needs to be replaced once the old roof comes off. A free estimate is the best way to plan for the cost associated specifically with your roof!

Can You Help Me With The Insurance Claims Process?

Yes. Elevation Exteriors communicates directly with your insurance adjuster, documents any relevant damage, and supplements your initial claim to ensure you receive the protection you deserve!

Do I Need A Full Roof Replacement Or Just A Repair?

That depends on the age of the roof, how widespread the damage is, and whether the decking underneath has been compromised. A roof with isolated damage and sound decking is often a repair, while a roof with rot, multiple problem areas, or age near the end of its shingle life is typically a replacement.

What If Only One Section Of My House Was Damaged?

We are often able to color match with a spectrophotometer, making a partial roofing or siding repair possible, though matching older siding exactly can be difficult once a product line is discontinued. Elevation Exteriors will tell you honestly whether a section repair or full replacement is the better long term option for your specific siding.

Does New Siding Really Help With Energy Costs?

New siding installed with a properly sealed weather resistant barrier reduces air infiltration at the wall, which can lower heating and cooling costs alongside the roof and windows. It works best as part of a full exterior envelope, not as a standalone fix for an inefficient home.

How Long Does It Take To Get New Siding?

Most residential siding projects take a few days to a week depending on the size of the home and whether trim and fascia work is included. An exact timeline is provided during the estimate based on the specific scope.

How Do I Know If I Need New Windows or Just To Repair Them?

Fogging or condensation between the panes means the seal has failed and cannot be repaired, which means replacement. Drafts around an otherwise clear window may be a weatherstripping or caulking issue that can sometimes be addressed without a full replacement, and Elevation Exteriors will tell you honestly which situation applies during an estimate.

Do I Need A Permit To Build A Deck in Andover MN?

Most new deck construction in Anoka County requires a building permit, and Elevation Exteriors handles that process as part of the project. Requirements vary by city, so permit needs are confirmed specifically for the project address.
