Common Questions About Roof Replacement
Why is there such a big difference between roofing quotes?
The gap usually comes down to materials, warranty length, and crew experience. A lower bid often means shorter warranty coverage, lower-grade underlayment, or a crew that is not manufacturer certified. CTI backs every replacement with a 5-year workmanship warranty and CertainTeed Shingle Master certified installation.
What does the 5-year workmanship warranty actually cover?
It covers the installation itself, not just the materials. If something goes wrong with how the roof was installed within five years, CTI will come back and make it right. Most roofing contractors in Utah offer one to two years of workmanship coverage.
What is a CertainTeed ShingleMaster and why does it matter?
Shingle Master is a manufacturer-certified installation credential. It means CTI crews have been trained and verified by CertainTeed to install their products correctly. It also unlocks extended manufacturer warranty options that uncertified contractors cannot offer.
How long does a roof replacement actually take?
Most full replacements are completed in a single day. Our crew handles tear-off, installation, and cleanup in one visit. Larger or more complex roofs may take two days. We give you a clear schedule before the job starts.
What is included in the price you quote?
Full tear-off, deck inspection, ice and water shield, underlayment, shingles, new flashing, ridge cap, ventilation, and complete site cleanup. The number we quote is the number you pay.
Can you help if the replacement is covered by insurance?
Yes. If storm or hail damage contributed to the need for replacement, CTI can document the damage, work with your insurance adjuster, and help you understand what your policy covers. Multiple CTI customers have paid only their deductible.
