The Process

What The Shelby Standard™ Looks Like

Most contractors show up, do the work, and disappear. The Shelby Standard™ is the opposite — documented, managed, and guaranteed at every stage.

01
Free Inspection

Drone Roof Inspection — Before We Write Anything

Every project starts with a free aerial drone inspection. We document your entire roof from multiple angles before we write a single estimate. You see exactly what we see — no vague descriptions, no surprises discovered mid-project.

This inspection is 100% free, with no obligation. We will not pressure you to commit to anything.

What you get: High-resolution drone photos of your full roof system, attic inspection report, and a frank assessment of condition and urgency — delivered in plain language.
02
Transparent Proposal

A Written Estimate That Actually Tells You What You’re Paying For

You receive a detailed written proposal with line-item material specifications, labor scope, timeline, and final price — before you commit to anything. No ballpark figures. No “we’ll figure it out as we go.”

If your project qualifies for insurance coverage, we walk you through that process and document the full scope of damage for your claim — at no additional cost.

Financing: If you need it, we offer Acorn Finance — up to $100,000, terms up to 20 years, prequalify in 60 seconds with no credit impact.
03
Selection & Scheduling

Choose Your System. We Handle Everything Else.

We walk you through every material option with real samples and explain the honest trade-offs between them. Once you choose, your project manager takes over — pulling all required permits, coordinating delivery, and scheduling your installation date.

We pull permits on every qualifying project. No exceptions. Contractors who skip permits are leaving you with unpermitted work that can complicate home sales and void insurance claims.

Permit note: Pennsylvania requires permits for most roofing replacements. We handle the application, inspections, and final sign-off on your behalf.
04
Professionally Managed Installation

One Standard. Crew Leadership On Site From Start to Finish.

Every installation is led on site by an experienced crew leader, from the first tear-off to the final nail. Not just at the start. Not just at the end. The entire installation. Our project management, led by Eduardo, our certified Project Manager and Crew Leader, keeps every job on the same process.

Our trained crew works efficiently, protects your landscaping and property, maintains a clean site throughout, and communicates with you directly — not through a call center, not through a third-party sub.

You will have your project manager’s direct contact information. If you have a question at 7pm the night before your project, you can reach them directly. That is not an accident — that is the standard.
05
Drone Final Documentation

We Document the Completed Work Before We Leave Your Property.

After installation is complete, we fly another full drone pass over the finished system. Every angle. Every detail. Every transition, flashing, ridge, and valley. What each part of a roof does →

You receive a complete digital photo album of your completed project — before-during-after — delivered to you and stored permanently in your project file.

Why it matters: If you ever file an insurance claim, sell your home, or have a warranty question five years from now, you have photographic proof of exactly what was installed and how. No other standard roofing contractor in the Philadelphia region includes this as a default.
06
Warranty & Walkthrough

We Don’t Leave Until You’re Satisfied — and Everything is in Writing.

Your project manager walks you through the completed work in person. We answer every question. We address anything you want to look at more closely. And we deliver your warranty documentation in writing before we leave.

Two warranties, in writing: Your manufacturer’s material warranty (coverage varies by product) and your 30-year Shelby Roofing Services workmanship warranty covering our installation — backed by our $2 million liability insurance policy. If any issue arises from our work, we return and make it right at no charge.

The Shelby StandardThe Second Clean-Up
A Word From the Owner

Every Job Gets a Second Clean-Up.

Crews work long days in heat and cold, and small things can be missed. So the day after every completed job, a member of our team returns for a second clean-up and a final walkthrough of the property, picking up anything left behind, down to the last nail.

  • A second clean-up the day after every completed job
  • When you step outside, the property is clean — no trash, no nails
  • One accountable team from the first call to the final walkthrough

Backed in Writing

Two Warranties. Every Project. No Exceptions.

30yr
Workmanship Warranty
The Shelby Standard™ Workmanship Guarantee
Our work is covered for 30 years. If an issue arises from our installation — flashing failure, improper fastening, ventilation problems caused by our work — we return and correct it at no charge. This warranty is backed by our $2 million liability insurance policy and transfers with your home.

Manufacturer’s Material Warranty

Every product we install carries the manufacturer’s own warranty covering material defects. The coverage terms vary by product — we will walk you through the specific terms for your chosen material before installation begins.

As a GAF Certified Contractor, we are able to offer enhanced GAF warranty options unavailable from non-certified contractors — including coverage that protects both materials and our labor beyond standard terms.

What the $2M Liability Policy Means for You

If anything on your property is damaged during our work — from landscaping to structure — our $2 million commercial general liability policy covers it. This is not a small policy. It is the kind of coverage that serious, established contractors carry. If a contractor cannot show you their certificate of insurance, do not let them on your roof.
