Before hiring any roofer, confirm their license through the Nevada State Contractors Board, ask what warranty covers labor (not just materials), and get a written scope — roofing is one of the most common categories for both storm-chaser scams and corner-cutting.

A roof is one of the largest single expenses a homeowner faces outside the house itself, and it's also one of the categories most exposed to bad actors — especially after storms, when unlicensed crews go door-to-door offering quick, cheap fixes.

What to check before signing anything

  • Verify the license through the Nevada State Contractors Board — never take a license number at face value.
  • Ask specifically what the warranty covers: materials only, or labor too, and for how long.
  • Get a written scope describing exactly what's being repaired or replaced, not a verbal summary.
  • Be skeptical of anyone pressuring you to sign same-day, especially right after a storm.

Repair versus replacement usually comes down to age, extent of damage, and whether the underlying structure is sound — an honest roofer will walk you through that reasoning, not just quote a number.

We'll inspect your roof and give you a straightforward answer — no pressure, no obligation.
