Commercial Roofing FAQ

How do I know if my roof needs to be repaired or replaced?

Common signs include missing or curling shingles, water stains on your ceiling, sagging areas, or frequent leaks. If your roof is over 20 years old, it’s wise to get a professional inspection—even if it looks fine from the ground. A roofing expert can help you determine whether a repair will suffice or if a full replacement is more cost-effective in the long run.

How long does a typical roof installation take?

Most residential roofing projects are completed in 1 to 2 days, depending on the size of the home and weather conditions. Larger or more complex roofs may take longer. Our team will provide a clear timeline during your estimate so you know exactly what to expect.

What types of roofing materials do you offer?

We work with a variety of roofing materials including asphalt shingles, metal roofing, rubber (EPDM), and architectural shingles. Each option offers different advantages in terms of durability, cost, and aesthetic. During your consultation, we’ll help you choose the material that fits your needs and budget.

Will my business insurance cover the cost of a new roof?

It depends on the reason for the replacement. Most insurance policies will cover roof damage caused by unexpected events like storms or fallen trees. However, they typically don’t cover damage from general wear and tear or lack of maintenance. We’re happy to assist you with the insurance claim process and provide any necessary documentation.

What is the most common type of roof for residential homes?

Asphalt shingles are the most popular roofing material for residential properties due to their affordability, ease of installation, and wide variety of colors and styles. They typically last 20–30 years and offer solid protection for most climates.

What are the benefits of metal roofing?

Metal roofs are highly durable, energy-efficient, and low maintenance. They can last 40–70 years and are excellent at shedding snow and rain. While the upfront cost is higher than asphalt, the long-term savings often outweigh the initial investment.

Are flat roofs only used for commercial buildings?

Not at all. While flat roofs are common in commercial construction, they’re also used in modern residential designs. Materials like TPO, EPDM, or modified bitumen are used to ensure water resistance and durability. Flat roofs can also be used for rooftop decks or green roofs.

What is the difference between architectural shingles and traditional 3-tab shingles?

Architectural shingles are thicker, more durable, and have a dimensional look that mimics wood or slate. They typically last longer (up to 30 years or more) and are more resistant to wind and hail compared to 3-tab shingles, which are lighter, flat, and generally less expensive upfront.

Why are gutters important for my home?

Gutters direct rainwater away from your business’s foundation, siding, and landscaping. Without properly functioning gutters, you risk water damage, basement flooding, erosion, and even structural issues over time.

How often should I clean my gutters?

Gutters should be cleaned at least twice a year—typically in the spring and fall. However, if your home is surrounded by trees or prone to heavy storms, more frequent cleaning may be necessary to prevent clogs and overflow.

What are gutter guards and do I need them?

Gutter guards are protective covers installed over your gutters to block leaves, debris, and pests while allowing water to flow through. They reduce the need for frequent cleaning and help extend the life of your gutter system—especially beneficial in wooded areas.

How do I know if my gutters need to be replaced?

Warning signs include sagging sections, rust or corrosion, water pooling around the foundation, peeling exterior paint, and frequent clogs or leaks. If repairs are becoming routine, a full gutter replacement may be more cost-effective.

Customer Reviews

I highly recommend RB Farina for their exceptional service and craftsmanship. Their team was professional, timely, friendly and left my roof looking better than ever. I couldn’t be happier with the results!

Annie Grealish

I needed a copper roof rip/replace in the South End of Boston. After reaching out to a few small one man shows that couldn’t pull a permit I found RB Farina. Not only did they beat the other 2 prices they came up with an all-encompassing quote and explanation of their process. Alex was the guy in charge and he was responsive, professional and likable. I am a construction business owner and I know a pro when I deal with one!! These guys are the real deal

Richard LaPorte

We were very satisfied with the work done by Farina. Our roof is complicated as we have an 18th century Georgian saltbox with two major additions over the last centurey creating lots of angles. The work was done with care, the materials first-rate and the team was professional, curteous and competent. I would highly recommend.

William Ambrose

Very happy with the roof replacement RB Farina performed on my house in Winchester. The Sales Manager Paulo answered all my questions, did not push me to sign and provided a very competitive quote. Alex who supervised the job was very approachable, easy to talk to and ensured the job was finished to a very high standard. Very happy customer and would recommend RB Farina!

Simeon Ramsey

What a fantastic professional roof and gutter job. They started Friday morning bright and early and my new roof was done by the end of the day Friday. This is a traditional Northeast two family home with a gable roof and two shed dormers. There were skylights as well. The attention to detail was exceptional including in process communication detailing rotten roof boards needing replacement (pictures provided). The gutters were done Saturday morning and finished by noon. The property was cleaned of debris, esp nails and you couldn’t tell they had been there! I would enthusiastically recommend RB Farina to anyone considering a new roof and or gutters!!
