OUR STORY
Because two roofs with the identical shingle can have completely different lifespans. The difference is the nailing pattern, the starter course, the underlayment overlaps, the way the valleys are cut, how the pipe boots and step flashing are set, and whether the crew replaced the soft decking or shingled over it. Manufacturers publish a specification for all of it. Code sets a minimum. We install to the specification.
The same is true of siding and windows. James Hardie installed to Washington code minimum instead of Hardie's own spec will let water behind the wall. A window without a sill pan will rot the framing under it no matter what the glass cost. Here is what that means on your project:
Most Western Washington roofs last 15 to 20 years. Installation and maintenance decide where in that range yours lands.
OUR ROOFING SERVICES
The same four things come up in nearly every review we get. They are not marketing. They are how we run a job.
Photos sent throughout the project, clear explanation of the process and options, and homeowners kept informed even while they are out of town.
We recommend the cheaper repair when it is the right call, give real remaining-lifespan assessments, and have pointed homeowners elsewhere when we could not serve them.
No satellite quotes. An in-person roof and attic inspection is how we price decking up front, and homeowners tell us it has saved them money.
Daily jobsite cleanup, landscaping protected, a magnetic nail sweep of the perimeter on completion, and crews that treat your property and your family with respect.
Not all contractor certifications are the same. These are the ones behind the products we install, and each one means we were trained to install to that manufacturer's specification.
Four steps from first call to finished work, with photos and updates at every stage.
We walk the roof and the property, go into the attic, photograph everything and tell you plainly what we found and what your options are.
A written estimate with decking, flashing and materials already priced in. The number you approve is the number you pay. No change orders on tear-off day.
Permits handled by us. Landscaping protected. Work installed to the manufacturer's specification with photo updates sent to you every day.
Daily site cleanup, a magnetic nail sweep on completion, a final walk-through with you, and your warranty documentation in hand.
Straightforward offers with no fine print games. If we cannot stand behind it, it is not on this list.
A full in-person evaluation of your roof, attic, siding, windows, gutters and decks, at no charge. We walk the roof and check the attic ourselves. We do not quote from satellite photos.
A $300 value.If we repair your roof and you decide to move ahead with a full replacement later, the cost of that repair is credited toward the new roof. Fixing what can be fixed never costs you twice.
Replace the whole roof with us and new gutters and downspouts are included, so the water coming off your new roof has somewhere to go.
Ask about current savings on complete roof replacements. We would rather earn the job with a fair number than a high number and a discount.
Pre-qualify in about 60 seconds with no effect on your credit score. Hearth charges no dealer fees and the lender funds you directly, so you stay in the position of power. We deliberately do not offer in-house financing or payment plans.
Subject to lender approval.Our Roof Refresh soft-wash cleaning and health assessment comes with a guarantee of no moss or algae return for two years, and no leaks for five years beyond that.

The questions we hear most from homeowners in Lake Stevens and Snohomish County. For the long answers, read the Q&A with Jeremiah.
It depends on the size and pitch of the roof, how many layers have to come off, how much decking needs replacing and the material you choose. Because we evaluate the attic before quoting, our written estimate already includes the plywood your roof needs, which is why our quotes rarely change after the work starts. The evaluation is free.
For most asphalt and architectural shingle roofs, 15 to 20 years. Manufacturers print longer numbers, but our rain, moss, needles and constant expansion and contraction are harder on a roof than the national average. Installation quality and maintenance decide where you land in that range.
If the roof is leaking in one spot and the rest of the shingles are still flexible, sealed and holding their granules, repair it. If the shingles are brittle, curling or shedding everywhere, a repair is a patch on a roof that is finishing. We show you what we find, give you both numbers, and credit any repair toward a future replacement.
No. Pressure washing blasts the protective granules off asphalt shingles and ages the roof years in an afternoon. We have documented a six-year-old roof in Snohomish ruined by it. Our Roof Refresh service uses a low-pressure soft wash and a treatment that kills moss at the root, guaranteed not to return for two years.
We plan around the forecast. Roofs are torn off in sections and dried in the same day so nothing is left open overnight, and we will move a day rather than rush a roof in a downpour.
We are based in Lake Stevens and serve Snohomish County (Lake Stevens, Snohomish, Everett, Marysville, Monroe, Lynnwood, Mill Creek, Edmonds, Mukilteo, Bothell and more), North King County (Woodinville, Kenmore, Shoreline) and the Eastside (Kirkland, Redmond, Bellevue, Sammamish, Issaquah).
