Roofing FAQs — Trace Roofing & Construction
Answers on inspections, insurance claims, materials, and more.
Are your roof inspections really free?
Yes — free, documented, and no obligation.
How do I know if I need a repair or a full replacement?
We show you photos and give you the honest call; a good repair beats an unnecessary replacement.
Do you help with storm-damage insurance claims?
Yes — we inspect, document, and meet your adjuster, and we only pursue claims with real damage.
Will filing a roof claim raise my rates?
It can vary by insurer and situation; we'll explain what we see before you decide to file. (We're roofers, not your insurer — ask them for specifics.)
How long does a roof replacement take?
Most homes are done in one to two days.
Shingle or metal for a Valley home?
Shingles cost less up front; standing-seam metal lasts longer and handles heat, wind, and hail better. We compare both for your home.
Do you offer financing?
Yes — ask about current options during your free inspection.
Are you licensed and insured?
We carry $2M general liability, are BBB-registered, and are an Owens Corning Preferred contractor.
What areas do you serve?
McAllen, Edinburg, Mission, Pharr, Weslaco, and across the RGV from Rio Grande City to Brownsville.
¿Hablan español?
Sí — nuestro equipo es completamente bilingüe.
Do you handle emergency leaks?
Yes — we can tarp and stop active leaks fast, then plan the real fix.
How soon can someone come out?
Usually within a day or two; sooner for active leaks.
