Roofing Contractor FAQs

Frequently Asked Questions for Roofing Contractors

  • What type of roof do you install?

    We install architectural rubberized asphalt shingles that are all-weather resilience, Class 4 hail impact rating, and include granules that help clean the air of emission pollutants.  Malarkey’s Vista® AR shingles are best in class – made with the industry’s leading technology (NEX® Rubberized Asphalt).  Vista is our most popular option for roofing shingles.


    We install Malarkey’s Legacy® Scotchgard™ shingles that are best in their class – made with the industry’s leading technology (NEX® Rubberized Asphalt), highest impact rating (Class 4), strongest sustainability (upcycled rubber and plastic, smog-reducing granules), and superior warranty protection.


    We install flat rubber roofs.



  • What should I look for when hiring a local roofing contractor?

    Verify they have a  contractor license and valid insurance for the State of Wisconsin.  This protects you and your property during the project.



    Check online to see how many years they have been in business in the La Crosse area.  



    Read reviews online and see what people are saying about their experience in working with the contractor.  



    Make sure they specialize in the type of roof you are replacing.  



    Ensure they are using quality materials with a warranty when replacing your roof.  You want your new roof to stand up to future storms, high winds, and hailstorms.  



  • How long will it take to put a new roof on my house?

    It depends on the size of your roof.  Most of our residential roofing projects are completed in 1-3 days.  We will give you an expected timeline for completion of your roof when scheduling the project.  We keep you informed on the progress throughout the process.  

  • Will you remove all the old roofing material and handle the disposal?

    Yes, we will remove all of the old roofing materials and handle the disposal properly.  We protect the exterior of your home during removal and ensure the ground around your house is completely clean and free from nails and old roofing debris.  We utilize a dump trailer to remove all old roofing materials immediately so you will not have a dumpster sitting on your property.



  • How do I know if my roof needs to be replaced?

    Schedule a free roofing inspection with Curti Construction and we will give you a detailed description on your roofing problem.  After we inspect your roof we can let you know if it is something that can be repaired or if you need to replace your roof.


    These are things to consider when deciding if your roof needs to be replaced:

    Roofing shingles that are missing, cracking, or curling. 

    Granules from the roof shingles filling up in rain gutters.

    Water leaks and water damage inside the home.

    Sagging or drooping roof deck.

    Daylight visible in your attic through roof boards.

    Age of roof.  A roof typically lasts 15-25 years depending on the materials and proper installation.


  • When can you complete my roofing project?

    We schedule your roofing project the same day we receive the necessary paperwork back from you.  Most projects start within 3-7 days of receiving the paperwork.  If your project requires custom material we will order it immediately and plan to install it as soon as it arrives.   

  • Are your services covered by my homeowner's insurance?

    Homeowners insurance will cover roof and exterior home damage caused by storms, such as hail, wind, or fallen trees.  If your home has experienced damage caused by a storm It’s essential to have the damage inspected by Curti Construction. We will determine the extent of the damage and advise on whether a repair is needed or a full replacement. This also provides the appropriate proof required by your insurance company.  Waiting too long to address storm damage can lead to bigger problems with your home and unpaid claims so schedule your assessment immediately.
