One request, one local roofer

How It Works: Roof Estimates in Savannah, GA

Roof Replacement Savannah GA is a free referral service for homeowners and landlords in Savannah, Georgia and the rest of Chatham County. You describe the roof on a short form, and the request goes to a single independent roofer nearby. That roofer visits, prices the job in writing and does any work you agree to.

Plain Facts About This Service

This website is a go-between, not a contractor. It sends no crew, quotes no prices, writes no bids and never signs a contract with you. It hands your request to one independent local roofer and steps aside. The roofing company that receives the request pays the site a fee for it. Using the form costs you nothing, and nothing of value comes back to you either: no gift, credit or discount.

Request, Match, Inspect, Estimate

Request. Fill in the form with your address, the roof type if you know it and what you've noticed, such as lifted shingles after a storm or a stain on a ceiling.
Match. The request is passed to one independent roofer who works in Savannah and nearby Chatham County towns. It isn't posted to a list or sold to several companies.
Inspect. The roofer gets in touch to set a time, then looks over the roof, the flashing and vents, and the attic if needed.
Estimate. The roofer gives you a written price. Plenty of roofers do this at no charge, but ask before the visit. Take your time deciding.

What to Ask the Roofer

No state license covers roofing in Georgia, because the trade isn't part of the state's contractor licensing. So the checking falls to you. Before you sign, ask for these and keep copies.

Proof of insurance. Proof of liability coverage that is current, and workers' compensation if the roofer has staff.
A business tax certificate. Every business working inside Savannah city limits needs one from the City, roofers too.
A written contract. Price, scope, materials and dates on paper, with payments spread across the job instead of cash only or everything up front.
Warranties in writing. The maker's warranty on materials and the roofer's own labor warranty, each with its length.
Who files the permit. The City lists roofing as work needing a building permit, so the roofer should pull it, not you. Homes in a local historic district need their Certificate of Appropriateness in hand before tear-off starts.
Coastal details. Ask about wind-rated shingles and fastening, drip edge, flashing, and attic ventilation for the humid months.

Limits Worth Knowing

The site never touches insurance claims. In Georgia, a roofer may not negotiate a claim for you unless it is a public adjuster licensed by the Georgia Insurance Commissioner. A roofer may document the damage and price the repair, while the settlement is yours to reach with the insurance company, alone or with a public adjuster or attorney you hire.

Paying the deductible is your job alone. According to the Georgia Attorney General, roofers may not pay it, and an offer to do so is a warning sign. On the coast, a policy can also set its own deductible for hurricanes or named storms; the declarations page will show it. The site doesn't vouch for or name any roofer; the contract and the work stay between you and the company you pick.

Let's Get the Roof Looked At

When you're ready, send a request through the form. A local roofer, not this site, will reach out about a visit and a written estimate. For a rough figure first, the cost calculator gives a planning range, and the repair-or-replace checker helps you weigh a patch against a new roof.
