Roof Replacement
We provide comprehensive roof replacement services using premium GAF materials designed to withstand Virginia Beach's climate. Our process includes free inspections, material selection guidance, and efficient installation completed in 1-2 days for most homes. Backed by a 25-year workmanship warranty and manufacturer warranties up to 50 years, our replacements improve energy efficiency, increase property value, and prevent water damage through proper ventilation and insulation techniques.
Roof Repair
Our emergency repair services address urgent issues like leaks, missing shingles, and storm damage with 24/7 availability. Technicians identify root causes through detailed inspections, repairing flashing, pipe collars, and damaged decking while maintaining existing roof integrity. We offer transparent pricing for both minor fixes and extensive repairs, with financing options available for larger projects requiring structural restoration or partial replacements.
Skylight Replacement
We specialize in skylight installation and replacement to enhance natural lighting while preventing leaks. Our energy-efficient models reduce utility costs and come with 25-year warranties. The process includes assessing existing skylight condition, recommending modern replacements for improved insulation, and professional installation that integrates seamlessly with your roof system to prevent water intrusion and maintain structural integrity.
Flashing Repair
Our flashing repair services protect critical roof junctions including chimneys, valleys, and vents. Certified technicians replace corroded or damaged flashing materials with durable metals, ensuring proper water diversion. We conduct thorough inspections to identify compromised areas, then implement solutions that prevent leaks and mold growth while extending overall roof lifespan through proper sealing techniques and material selection.
Flat Roof Repair
We address flat roof challenges including water pooling and membrane damage for residential and commercial properties. Services include membrane patching, drainage system improvements, and complete replacements when necessary. Our team uses commercial-grade materials suited for flat surfaces, with regular maintenance programs to extend roof lifespan. We specialize in multi-family unit repairs and commercial building inspections to prevent extensive water damage.

Questions
What are common signs of roof damage?
Indoor signs include cracked paint, discolored plasterboard, and peeling wallpaper. Outdoors, look for missing shingles, excessive granules in gutters, cracked flashing, or visible leaks in the attic.
How do I choose a reliable roofing contractor?
Check time in business, BBB rating, insurance verification, VA Class-A license #2705062584, and warranty terms. Gilpin offers 25-year workmanship warranties and GAF manufacturer guarantees.
Should I repair or replace my roof?
Minor issues like isolated leaks may only need repairs. Complete replacement is recommended for roofs over 20 years old, multiple leaks, or structural damage to ensure long-term protection and energy efficiency.
How long does roof replacement take?
Most single-family homes take 1-2 days. We coordinate material delivery and weather forecasts to minimize disruption, with full cleanup included before final inspection and warranty documentation.
Do you offer financing options?
Yes, we provide flexible financing with approved credit for roof replacements and major repairs, making essential home improvements accessible while maintaining quality standards.
