Project context
When to talk with a pro
A growing ceiling stain, missing shingles, or daylight visible through roof boards are reasons to have the roof inspected. Sagging areas and loose flashing around a chimney can also let water in. Note when the leak appears, especially after wind or heavy rain, and ask the roofer to explain what is damaged before agreeing to a repair.

Common questions about roofing companies in Powhatan
For a typical asphalt shingle roof, plan on roughly $8,000 to $22,000, and metal runs a good bit higher. The size, the pitch, and how many old layers have to come off move the number as much as anything else. Get a couple of written quotes so you can see what is actually driving the price.
Get it in writing, check that they carry their own liability and workers comp insurance, and look them up on the DPOR license lookup. Be careful with anyone who knocks on your door after a storm wanting money up front. A real contractor will put the tear-off, the material, and the decking terms on paper before you sign.
If a storm tore off shingles or dropped a limb through the roof, it is usually worth a claim, since wind and hail damage tends to be covered. Take photos before anyone climbs up, and let both your own adjuster and the roofer look at it. Be wary of a contractor who offers to cover your deductible, because that is a red flag and can cross into insurance fraud.
Sometimes, if there is only one layer up there and the decking under it is sound. An overlay is cheaper and faster, but it hides whatever is rotting below and it does not last as long. In our humidity a lot of roofers will tell you to tear off and start clean, and often that is the honest call.
