We are your neighbors!
We've lived in and out of Hampton Roads for the past 50 years, living in over half-a-dozen zip codes dating back to the 1970s and finally settling in the area in 2007. We understand the challenges you face trying to keep your roof watertight. Between nor'easters, hurricanes, tree damage, and more, we are ready to help you protect and improve your home's first line of defense against Mother Nature. For the more extreme jobs that may require remediation and construction, we have Department of Professional and Occupational Regulation (DPOR) - certified residential and commercial builders on staff. and a staff engineer.
Committed to Quality
Every representative at Five Star Roofing is committed to providing you with the highest quality roofing solution for your specific needs. We wouldn’t recommend anything we wouldn’t do in our own homes. First, if you don’t need a new roof, we aren’t going to recommend one to you. Not all roof leaks are caused by a failure in the shingles. There are many other potential contributors, such as clogged gutters, dams caused by debris build-up and improper roof design (e.g., a pitch that’s too shallow with no proper underlayment, pitching a roof into a wall with no cricket…). We can help with all these problem and, if you need a new roof, we will install the best roofing system for your needs.
Multi-Step Process
Our multi-step process begins with a thorough inspection, planning, and preparation. We will analyze your roof, looking for potential weaknesses and damage-prone areas. We will develop an installation plan to reduce potential hazards during the installation process. We will completely remove your old roofing, including all the old underlayments, and clean the work area daily. Our standard installations include ice and water-protective underlayment in all the leak-prone areas – valleys, roof penetrations, and eaves.
High-Quality Materials
Then, we will use the highest quality synthetic roof underlayment, GAF Deck-Armor, to help manage roof system moisture and provide additional protection from wind-driven rain. We will install the manufacturer-recommended starter shingles, then the highest quality high-definition architectural shingle (or 3-tab if desired) to reinforce your home's character. For any vent pipe penetration, we will install the best in the industry lifetime pipe collars. We will cap your roof with a matching ridge cap on top of the GAF Cobra Rigid Premium Exhaust Vent. This will allow heat and moisture to escape your attic and lengthen your roof system's life. Of course, if you need any gutter maintenance, gutter guards, or gutter replacement, we can also handle that! And no job is complete without thoroughly cleaning the work area and homeowner inspection! We are not done until you are Five-Star satisfied!
