Frequently Asked Roofing Questions in Arizona

Have questions about roof repairs, roof replacements, inspections, warranties, financing, or insurance claims? We’ve answered some of the most common questions homeowners ask Del Oro Roofing.

How often should i coat my flat Roof?

In our hot desert climate, we recommend recoating your flat roof with a quality elastomeric or silicone roof coating every 5 to 10 years, depending on the coating’s thickness and condition. Regular coatings reflect intense UV rays, seal hairline cracks, and prevent ponding water leaks. Regular inspections help catch thin areas before they lead to water damage.

What is the difference between elastomeric and silicone roof coatings?

Elastomeric coatings are acrylic-based, cost-effective, and provide excellent heat reflectivity, but they can degrade if water ponds on the roof for long periods. Silicone coatings are more premium and create a seamless rubberized barrier that resists standing water without breaking down. We evaluate your roof’s drainage to recommend the best option for your budget.

How long does a tile roof replacement take?

A standard residential tile roof replacement in Tucson typically takes between 3 to 5 days, depending on the size of the home and the complexity of the roof layout. Our professional crew works efficiently to minimize disruption, keeping the job site clean throughout the process. We ensure everything is installed to meet strict Arizona building codes.

Do you offer financing for roof replacements?

Yes, Del Oro Roofing offers flexible financing options to help make your roof replacement or major repair project affordable. We understand that roofing emergencies can happen unexpectedly, so we partner with top lenders to provide accessible payment plans.

What are the signs that my roof has monsoon storm damage?

Common signs of storm damage include missing or torn shingles, cracked or displaced clay/concrete tiles, and water spots appearing on your ceiling. If you notice any of these after a heavy storm or high winds, it is crucial to schedule an inspection immediately. Early repairs can prevent minor wind damage from turning into costly interior water leaks.

Can you repair a single section of a tile roof, or do I need a full replacement?

In most cases, we can repair specific sections of a tile roof by replacing broken tiles and repairing the underlayment underneath. Concrete and clay tiles can last 50+ years, but the felt underlayment beneath them typically lasts 20-30 years. If your tiles are in good condition but the underlayment is failing everywhere, a full tile lift-and-lay may be required.

Are you licensed, bonded and insured in Arizona?

Yes, Del Oro Roofing LLC is a fully licensed, bonded, and insured contractor. We hold an active KB-2 Dual Residential and Small Commercial license (ROC #356841) with the Arizona Registrar of Contractors. This dual classification allows us to handle both home roofing projects and light commercial jobs safely and legally.

Do you clean up the job site after the roofing work is complete?

Absolutely. We take great pride in our workmanship and respect your property, which is why we perform a thorough cleanup at the end of every workday and a final sweep when the job is done. We use magnetic sweeps to collect loose nails from your driveway and landscaping, leaving your home as clean as we found it.
