Roofing is the foundation of everything we do at RAWResidential. A properly installed roof system, not just shingles on decking but the full ventilation, moisture protection, and flashing system, is what makes the rest of your home perform the way it should.
We focus on full re-roofs and insurance claim replacements, but we also do repairs. Most roofing companies won’t touch repair work. We do, because doing it right the first time, whether it’s one flashing or the whole roof, is what earns your trust.
Why Owens Corning
We build our roofs around Owens Corning products, and that’s a deliberate choice. The Duration Series shingles are the industry benchmark for a reason: SureNail Technology adds a reinforced fabric strip across the nailing zone, giving each shingle a significantly stronger attachment point than a standard shingle provides. TruDefinition color technology means the color your homeowner picks on the sample actually looks that way on the roof, with depth and consistency that holds over time.
The warranty backing matters too. Owens Corning’s Platinum Preferred Contractor program is one of the strongest in the industry: it unlocks the System Protection Limited Warranty, which covers both materials and workmanship under a single Owens Corning warranty rather than splitting liability between manufacturer and contractor. RAWResidential is actively working toward Platinum Preferred status. That designation requires meeting strict installation standards and volume thresholds, and it’s what we’re building toward because it’s what our customers deserve.
The short version: we use Owens Corning because the materials perform, the warranty is real, and the company stands behind the system the way we stand behind our work.
Common Questions About Residential Roofing
How long does a typical roof replacement take?
Most residential re-roofs in Frederick County take one day for a standard-sized home. Larger or complex roofs (multiple valleys, steep pitch, dormers) may take two days. We aim to never leave a job unfinished overnight.
Do you handle insurance claims?
Yes. Rocky works directly with homeowners through the insurance process, reviewing the adjuster's scope, supplementing for items insurance may have missed, and coordinating with your carrier from start to finish.
What warranty comes with a new roof?
Every roof we install carries the manufacturer's material warranty (up to lifetime on premium shingles) plus RAWResidential's workmanship warranty. We'll walk you through both before you sign anything.
Do I need to be home during the installation?
No. We just need access to the property. We'll communicate before, during, and after. You'll get photos of any deck damage found and of the finished job.
Why does every inspection include an attic check?
The attic tells you things the roof can't. Improper ventilation accelerates shingle aging and can void manufacturer warranties. We check every attic so you're not inheriting a problem we didn't catch.
