Common Roofing Questions

Straight answers to the questions Fort Wayne homeowners ask most.

Most residential roofs are completed in a single day. Our trained crew arrives early, works efficiently, and leaves your property clean before dark. Larger or more complex roofs may take two days.

Absolutely. We walk you through the entire insurance claim process — from documenting the damage and filing the claim to meeting with your adjuster on-site. Many homeowners are surprised to learn their insurance covers the full replacement.

Our 15-year warranty covers all labor and installation workmanship. If anything we installed fails, we come back and fix it at no cost. This is on top of the manufacturer's lifetime warranty on the shingles themselves.

That's exactly what our free inspection determines. We'll assess your roof's condition, show you photos of any damage, and give you an honest recommendation — even if it means telling you a repair is all you need.

Yes. Big Dog Roofing carries full licensing, comprehensive general liability insurance, and worker's compensation coverage. Your property and our crew are always protected.

We use premium GAF architectural shingles, synthetic underlayment, proper ventilation, and code-compliant flashing and drip edge. For metal roofing, we install standing seam and corrugated systems rated for Indiana's climate.
