Frequently Asked Questions
Welcome to the Craftbuilt Roofing FAQ page. We’re proud to serve Show Low, the White Mountains, Chandler, and Gilbert, Arizona. Below are answers to some of the most common roofing questions we get from homeowners and business owners in these areas.
General Roofing Questions
1. How do I know if my roof needs to be replaced?
Look for signs like missing shingles, leaks, water stains on ceilings, or visible sagging. In high-elevation areas like Show Low or Gilbert’s monsoon season, roofs wear faster. We offer free inspections to evaluate roof health.
2. How long does a typical roof last in Arizona?
Tile and architectural shingle roofs can last 20–30 years, but harsh Arizona sun, hail, and snow can shorten that lifespan. We specialize in roofs built to withstand the extremes of the White Mountains and Valley heat.
3. Do you offer free roof inspections in Chandler, Gilbert, and Show Low?
Yes, Craftbuilt Roofing offers free roof inspections in all of our service areas. Whether you’re in a mountain cabin or a desert neighborhood, we’ll assess your roof thoroughly at no cost.
Storm Damage & Insurance
4. How do I file an insurance claim for hail or storm damage?
We help guide homeowners through the claim process from start to finish, including documenting damage, meeting with adjusters, and ensuring fair coverage. Our team has extensive experience with Arizona storms, especially in Show Low and the East Valley.
5. Will my insurance cover a new roof?
In many cases, yes—if the damage is due to a covered event like hail or wind. We can review your policy and provide accurate documentation for a smoother approval process.
6. Can you work directly with my insurance company?
Absolutely. We routinely coordinate with insurance providers for customers in Gilbert, Chandler, Show Low, and surrounding areas to ensure proper repair or full roof replacement.
Roofing Materials & Installation
7. What roofing materials do you recommend for the Arizona climate?
In the desert (Chandler/Gilbert), we often recommend high-reflectivity shingles or tile to combat heat. In Show Low and the White Mountains, we install underlayment and systems designed for snow and ice resilience.
8. How long does a roof replacement take?
Most residential roof replacements are completed in 1–2 days. Larger or more complex roofs (especially in mountain areas) may take slightly longer depending on weather and material availability.
9. Are your crews local to the areas you serve?
Yes, our crews live and work in the communities we serve—whether that’s Chandler, Gilbert, or Show Low. We understand local building codes, weather patterns, and HOA requirements.
Pricing & Warranty
10. How much does a new roof cost in Arizona?
It depends on roof size, material, and condition. In general, replacements range from $9,000 to $20,000+. We provide detailed, no-obligation quotes and work with insurance and financing when needed.
11. Do you offer financing options?
Yes, we offer flexible financing plans so you can get your roof done now and pay over time. Ask us about low-interest and deferred payment options.
12. What warranties do you offer?
We offer manufacturer warranties up to 50 year labor and material warranties (like Malarkey and GAF) as well as our own workmanship guarantee. Your roof will be protected long after installation.
