Feeling STRESSED about hiring a roofing contractor?
Most homeowners are scared to death of wasting thousands of dollars to shady roofers and shoddy workmanship.

Petrus Roofing educates you in every aspect of the roofing process, so you can have peace and confidence in your new roof.
Unethical Roofers…
- Are terrible communicators who never show up on time
- Make low bids, only to surprise you with hidden costs later

- Cut corners with your roof, jeopardizing your home’s integrity

From Our Website to Your Home
Whether you called or filled out our online form, your information is kept secure and private and is entered into our database. A salesman is assigned to you and will reach out to schedule the free inspection that works best for you. He will message you when he is on his way, so you are informed and never kept wondering when we’ll arrive.
The Free Inspection Process
We do our industry-standard 7-point inspection on the ground, roof, and the attic, which requires attic access. You get full documentation with 50+ photos and videos. We will walk you through your options: repair (light damage), replace (whole roof failure), or relax (no real damage). You will see clear evidence of damage or the lack thereof so that you can make the best decision for your home. We do not lie or exaggerate to make a sale.
The Process to Build Day
Determine if you will pay on your own (“cash” or “retail”) or with insurance (if applicable). The retail process is simple and moves quickly, even for whole roof replacements. You will select the product (shingle or metal) and the appearance (color). Then we will get an estimate to you along with the contract. Once signed and the initial 50% deposit is given, we will set up “Build Day” and purchase the materials for your roof.
After your new roof is installed, your salesman will do a final inspection with you to make sure you’re fully satisfied and the final payment is then made. Finally, one year later, we will call you up and set a time to reinspect your roof to make sure all is well and you’re regret-free!
The Insurance Process
If you are making an insurance claim, first check your policy to see if it says RCV or ACV for “replacement” or “actual” cost value. Then call us for the free inspection and full report. Next, file your claim with your agent. Notify us when their adjustor will come inspect your roof and we will walk it with them. Finally, when they agree to replace or repair your roof, there will be some complicated back-and-forth, but don’t worry! With us as your guide, you’ll be fine.
When your deductible and the insurance company’s first payment is paid, the process is largely the same as a retail/cash purchase. We will schedule the date for the Build Day, deliver materials, walk the property with you aftewards, and if you’re happy, we will collect the remaining balance.
In life, there are no guarantees. In roofing and solar, there’s the Petrus Workmanship Warranty.
We stand by our work. In addition to your manufacturer’s warranty, Petrus Roofing and Solar offers a Rock-Solid, 5-Year Workmanship Warranty.
