Westchester Roofing FAQs
My concrete tile still looks great. Why would I replace anything?
The underlayment beneath is what keeps water out, and that has a shorter life. On a 30–40 year old roof, the tile may have decades left while the felt is finished.
Can you reuse my existing tile?
Often yes. We lift, install new HVHZ underlayment, and reset salvageable pieces.
My carport leaks where it meets the main house. Can that be fixed without redoing everything?
Sometimes yes — if the issue is isolated to the transition flashing.
How long does a typical replacement take?
Tile: 5–10 days. Shingle: 2–4 days.
Are your materials Miami-Dade NOA approved?
Every system carries a current Miami-Dade NOA.
