Roofing FAQs
Straightforward, helpful answers from the team at Colossus Roofing
Do I need a permit to replace my roof in Michigan?
It depends on your city and the scope of work. In most cases, basic shingle replacement does not require a permit, but structural work or large-scale repairs often do. We’ll handle this for you if needed.
Is your inspection really free?
Yes! Our roof inspections are completely free, with no pressure or obligation. You’ll get a detailed report with photos and recommendations.
How long does a roof replacement take?
Most residential roof replacements in Troy take 1–2 days, depending on size and weather. We work fast, but never cut corners.
What kind of warranty do you offer?
We provide a labor warranty on all installs and stand by our subcontractors’ craftsmanship. Material warranties vary by product, but we’ll walk you through every option.
Can you help with storm or hail damage?
Absolutely. We work with you to document the damage, support your insurance claim, and restore your roof quickly and professionally.
Do I have to be home during the roof work?
Nope. As long as we have access to the property, we’ll take care of everything and keep you updated with photos and progress reports.
