Roof Installation and Repairs in Richmond, VA and Surrounding Cities
The importance of a good roof cannot be overstated. A roof is all that stands between the interior of a home and snow, rain, hail, tree branches, and debris.
A high-quality, durable roof increases the energy efficiency of a home and adds to the property's overall value. In fact, when a property has a sturdy roof in excellent condition, insurance companies often offer homeowners discounted rates, making it a fantastic long-term investment.
Some of the sure signs that the roof should be replaced are buckling shingles, neglected roof valleys, chimney damage, gutters full of shingle granules, and a sagging roof. If daylight shines through the roof, that's an even more evident sign that the homeowner should reach out to their roofing contractor.
Hiring the best roof contractor is crucial when installing a new roof, replacing an old one, or even making some roof repairs.

New Roof Installation
If a home is old or in poor condition, a completely new roof installation is often the best course of action. The process involves removing all the old shingles, inspecting and replacing substructures, and beginning again.
To do it correctly, the roofing contractor should have all the right tools. Fortunately, at Eagle Home Renovation Inc., we provide professional new roof installation services for all Richmond, VA residents.
Our clients choose the shingle type and expect complete protection of their home from weather elements.
The roofing underlayment installation is a part of the process too. There are several options in terms of materials, and we’re here to advise our clients on which is best suited for their home.
Roof Replacement

Types of Roofing We Specialize In…
Asphalt Shingles
Asphalt shingles are the number one choice for homeowners across North America. It’s an unsurprising fact, given the amazing benefits of this type of roof shingle.
Merely in terms of versatility, asphalt shingles are impressive. They can cover nearly every angle, shape, or form of the roof almost seamlessly and can even mimic other types of materials. The asphalt shingle is available in countless design varieties and across all price ranges. When choosing asphalt shingles, homeowners have color and style options to ensure their house has the right curb appeal for their neighborhood.
One of the best aspects of asphalt shingles is that they offer excellent quality and high performance at a relatively low cost. These types of shingles are one of the easiest for installation and are cost-effective when it comes to repairs. Asphalt shingles are energy-efficient. They are available in various tones that reduce the temperature of the roof surface.
Asphalt shingles are incredibly impact-resistant and protect from extreme weather conditions. High winds are something homeowners worry about too, and the asphalt shingle delivers more than sufficient protection.
Finally, asphalt shingles also have a Class A fire rating, offer substantial sound protection, and are algae-resistant.
Tile Roofing
A tile roof is not as common in North America as it is in Europe. But tile roofs have been around for millennia and offer fantastic advantages. A tile roof has an earthy quality and is available in unique designs.
They're also the environmentally more sustainable option, and that's why they're growing in popularity. Homeowners can choose between clay, concrete, slate, and metal tiles.
Clay tiles - durable and made to last. They're definitely low-maintenance, but they can be expensive.
Concrete tiles - eco-friendly as they can be reused and recycled. However, concrete is heavy and prone to moisture concerns.
Slate tiles - offer the Gothic-style look some homeowners are looking for. They typically increase the home’s value, but are pricey.
Metal tiles - a popular choice and can be made from steel, zinc, copper, or aluminum. Metal tiles are usually lighter and deliver superior energy efficiency.
When it comes to a tile roof, concrete and clay are often the most sought-after option. These types of roofs are high-wind resistant, breathable, fireproof, and have increased longevity.
