You’ll sleep soundly during the next storm knowing your roof is watertight and secure. No more buckets catching drips or wondering if that small leak is turning into expensive structural damage.
Your energy bills drop back to normal because your roof isn’t letting heated or cooled air escape. The stress of dealing with water stains on your ceiling becomes a thing of the past.
Most importantly, you protect your home’s value and your family’s comfort without the headache of dealing with contractors who don’t show up or do shoddy work.
Certified Contracting Services Inc has been fixing roofs for Carmel homeowners who need the job done right without the runaround. We’re not storm chasers or fly-by-night operators.
We understand Carmel’s weather patterns – the ice dams that form after heavy snowfall, the wind damage from sudden storms, and how quickly a small leak can become a major problem in our climate.
When we finish your roof repair, you get our full warranty backing the work. We’ll be here next year and the year after that because this is our community too.
First, we inspect your entire roof – not just the obvious problem spots. We check for hidden damage, loose flashing, and issues that could cause problems down the road.
Then we give you a straight answer about what needs fixing and what doesn’t. No upselling, no scare tactics about replacing your whole roof when a repair will do the job.
We schedule the work at your convenience and complete most repairs in one day. Our crew cleans up completely before we leave, and we walk through the finished work with you to make sure everything meets your expectations.

Every roof repair includes a thorough inspection of your entire roofing system. We fix the immediate problem and identify potential issues before they become expensive headaches.
In Carmel, we see specific patterns of damage from our harsh winters and sudden summer storms. Ice dams are common along the Route 6 corridor, while homes near Lake Carmel often deal with wind damage from storms coming off the water.
We use materials designed for our climate – shingles that handle temperature swings, flashing that won’t fail during freeze-thaw cycles, and underlayment that provides extra protection against ice dam damage.
Most emergency roof repairs in Carmel can be completed within 24-48 hours of your call. For urgent situations like active leaks during a storm, we provide emergency tarping service to protect your home while we prepare for permanent repairs.
The timeline depends on the extent of damage and weather conditions. Simple shingle replacements or flashing repairs typically take 4-6 hours. More complex repairs involving multiple areas or structural damage may require 1-2 days.
We always prioritize stopping water intrusion first, then completing the full repair properly. Rush jobs that aren’t done right just create bigger problems later.
Ice dam damage tops the list during Carmel winters. When snow melts and refreezes at roof edges, it forces water under shingles and can damage gutters and fascia boards.
Wind damage from sudden storms is also frequent, especially lifted or missing shingles. We see a lot of flashing problems around chimneys and roof penetrations where water finds its way in.
Hail damage occurs during spring and summer storms, creating granule loss and exposing shingles to UV damage. Even small hail can cause problems that aren’t immediately visible but lead to leaks over time.
Age is the first factor – if your roof is over 20 years old and showing multiple problem areas, replacement might make more sense than ongoing repairs. But many roofs can be effectively repaired even when they look rough.
We look at the overall condition of your roof deck, the extent of damage, and whether problems are isolated or widespread. If less than 30% of your roof has issues, repair is usually the right choice.
The key is getting an honest assessment from a contractor who isn’t trying to sell you a new roof when repairs will solve your problems. We’ll tell you straight up what makes sense for your situation and budget.
Yes, we work directly with insurance adjusters and help homeowners navigate the claims process. We document damage thoroughly with photos and detailed reports that insurance companies need to process your claim.
We can meet with your adjuster on-site to ensure all damage is identified and properly assessed. Many homeowners miss subtle damage that we’re trained to spot during our inspections.
Our detailed estimates match insurance industry standards, which helps speed up approval and payment. We’ll also work with you on any deductible requirements or payment scheduling your insurance company requires.
We don’t cut corners on materials or preparation work. While some contractors use basic shingles and minimal flashing, we select materials specifically rated for Carmel’s climate conditions.
Our installation process includes proper underlayment, adequate ventilation, and flashing techniques that prevent future problems. We also replace any damaged decking rather than trying to patch around it.
Every repair comes with our workmanship warranty, and we use manufacturer-backed materials. When we finish a job, it’s built to handle whatever weather Carmel throws at it for years to come.
Simple repairs like replacing a few shingles or fixing minor flashing issues typically run $300-800. More extensive repairs involving multiple areas or structural damage can range from $1,500-5,000.
The cost depends on materials needed, extent of damage, and accessibility of your roof. Steep roofs or multi-story homes require additional safety equipment and time, which affects pricing.
We provide detailed written estimates that break down material and labor costs so you know exactly what you’re paying for. No surprise charges or hidden fees – just honest pricing for quality work.
