How much does a new roof cost in Kennett Square?
Every roof in Kennett Square is different, and the most accurate way to know the cost is a free inspection.

How long will a new roof last in Kennett Square?
25–30+ years for architectural shingles, 30–50+ years for premium designer shingles, and far longer for slate and standing seam metal. Proper installation and attic ventilation are the two biggest factors.
What is the difference between ACV and RCV insurance coverage for my roof?
ACV (Actual Cash Value) pays the depreciated value of your roof — a 15-year-old roof gets a fraction of replacement cost. RCV (Replacement Cost Value) pays full replacement cost minus your deductible. Most homeowners in Montgomery County have RCV policies but may not realize it. We review your policy details during the inspection and explain exactly what you are entitled to before any claim is filed.
Can I get a supplement if my insurance payout does not cover the full scope?
Yes — and this is common. Initial scopes of loss often miss code-required items like ice and water shield, ventilation upgrades, and drip edge. We prepare Xactimate-compatible supplement documentation and submit it directly to your carrier. Chester County sees nor’easters and severe summer storms that make supplements a common part of roof claims.
What if my insurance claim was denied?
A denial is not final. We can conduct a second inspection with detailed photo documentation, help you request a re-inspection, or provide a written contractor assessment supporting your appeal. We will tell you honestly which path is most likely to succeed for your specific situation in Kennett Square.
