What are the common types of roofs in Pittsburgh, PA?

Asphalt roofs are the most common roofing choice in Pittsburgh, PA thanks to their affordability, durability, and wide range of styles and colors. However, metal roofs are gaining popularity in the area for their impressive longevity and ability to withstand harsh weather conditions. Homeowners are increasingly recognizing the benefits of metal roofing as a reliable and stylish alternative.

How do I know my roof needs to be replaced?

Some common signs you should replace your roof include damaged or missing roof shingles, moss growth on shingles, sagging parts on your roof, and water stains on your ceiling. If your roof is over 20 years old, it should be inspected for possible damages. At Oaks Roofing & Siding, we provide comprehensive roof inspections to assess the age and condition of your roof, providing you with the best next steps and a quote for replacement.

How much do roof repairs cost?

Roof repair costs will vary depending on the extent of damage, your roof’s dimensions, and more. It’s best to call a seasoned roofing contractor, such as Oaks Roofing & Siding, to provide an inspection and an itemized estimate of damages.

Can you give me an estimate over the phone?

No, we cannot provide an estimate over the phone. We send an estimator to inspect your roof to assess issues, who will then give you an itemized estimate on the roof repair or replacement costs. Call 412-887-6257 to schedule an estimate.

How often do asphalt roofs need to be replaced?

Asphalt roofs should be replaced every 20-25 years. Depending on where you live, the amount of maintenance you put into your roof, and the installation of the roof initially, the lifespan of your roof may be higher or lower than that range.

I needed siding and flashing repairs before winter, and after reading the Google reviews for Oaks Roofing & Siding, I knew I wanted to reach out for a quote. I’m so glad I did!

Will was my estimator and was very thorough in explaining the quote. My original project date was October 21, but on October 12, I received a text letting me know they could move the project up and complete it on October 13.

Storm Comly was the service technician, and he did an excellent job with the repairs and provided outstanding service.

From the initial estimate to the completed repairs, the entire experience was excellent. I highly recommend Oaks Roofing & Siding to anyone looking for new siding or needing siding repairs. Great service, great communication, and a job well done!

Elton and his crew came and replaced my roof very efficiently within a few hours. They informed me what to expect for the whole process from start to finish very well. Thank you!

Karen Cummins 3 years ago

Very pleased with the work from this company. Very professional and Worked in a timely manner. Spent lots of time cleaning up and left with everything the way it was before. My only issue was a communication barrier with the crews limited English speaking and not understanding me when I had a question or concern. I would definitely recommend this company to do the job. The placement of the dumpster was the only real inconvenience as they blocked me from my driveway and the lateness of the completion I'm waiting for them to pick up the dumpster making me park my car away from my garage.
