Harbeson Roof Repair, Replacement & Installation
Harbeson Roofing & Maintenance handles every roofing job from a single-shingle repair to a full commercial re-roof. Here's what we do in Harbeson.
Roof Replacement
The average roof replacement in Harbeson takes one day for a standard residential home. Larger or steeper roofs might take two. Either way, we don't leave a house uncovered overnight. If we tear it off, we cover it before we leave. No exceptions.

Roof Repair
Improper step flashing is the leading cause of roof leaks at wall-to-roof transitions. Step flashing needs to be woven between shingle courses with each piece extending 4" above the shingle exposure. We see Harbeson homes where the last roofer used continuous L-flashing or just caulked the gap. That always fails. We tear it out and install proper step flashing with a kick-out diverter at the bottom per IRC R905.2.8.3.

Storm Damage Repair
Storm damage is time-sensitive. Most insurance policies in Delaware require claims within 12 months. We do a free inspection, document every damaged area with photos and measurements, and help you file the claim. If the adjuster approves it, we handle the repairs at the insurance-approved price.

New Roof Installation
Proper ventilation is the most overlooked element in new roof installation. We calculate intake and exhaust per IRC R806 based on attic square footage. Balanced ventilation. Soffit intake matched to ridge exhaust. Keeps your attic cooler in summer and drier in winter. That extends roof life and cuts your energy bill.

Metal Roofing
Metal roofing reflects solar heat instead of absorbing it. In Delaware, that means 15-25% lower cooling costs compared to dark asphalt shingles. The higher upfront cost pays for itself over the life of the roof. And the life of a metal roof is twice or three times longer than shingles.

Flat Roofing
Flat roof leak detection in Harbeson: we start with a visual inspection of seams, flashings, and penetrations. If the leak source isn't obvious, we use electronic leak detection (ELD) or flood testing on membrane roofs. We find it and fix it. No guessing, no unnecessary tear-offs.

Gutter Installation
We install gutter guards for homeowners who are done cleaning gutters twice a year. Micro-mesh over the opening, screwed into the front lip. Leaves and pine needles sit on top and blow off. Not 100% maintenance-free, but close. You might hose them once a year.

Roof Inspection
Annual inspections catch small problems early. A cracked pipe boot is a $150 repair. A year of water leaking through that crack causes $3,000+ in ceiling, insulation, and drywall damage. We recommend an inspection every 2-3 years for newer roofs, annually for roofs over 15 years.

Emergency Roof Repair
Fallen tree damage requires immediate structural assessment before tarping. If a tree has displaced rafters, cracked a ridge beam, or pushed through ceiling joists, the structure is compromised. We assess from both exterior and attic, coordinate with structural engineers or framing contractors when needed, and tarp only areas that are structurally stable enough to support the tarp hardware. Insurance claims for tree strikes require separate line items for tree removal, structural repair, and roofing repair. We document each scope independently.

Skylight Installation
VELUX FS (fixed) and VS (vented) skylights installed with EDL flashing kits for shingle roofs. The multi-step flashing integrates with the surrounding shingle courses per IRC R903.2. We frame the curb with doubled 2x8 or 2x10 lumber (depending on rafter depth), install ice and water shield membrane around the entire curb perimeter, then set the skylight with factory sealant before weaving step flashing into the field. Top headwall flashing tucks under the upslope shingle course. Bottom sill pan diverts water onto the downslope shingles. Zero exposed sealant joints. Mechanical flashing only.
