Can I stay in my home during the roof replacement?
Yes! You can certainly stay in your home while we replace your roof, though it will be quite loud. So if you need a quiet space for work or for a little one to sleep during the day then it might not be ideal. If you are in the home we just ask that you try to get the attention of one of our team members before you step out from under a porch overhang or your door to be sure nothing is being thrown off of the roof at that moment.
Do you offer roof maintenance services?
Absolutely. Most do not know, since they are never told, but your roof needs to be maintained every 3-4 years.

Do you offer warranties on your roofing services?
Yes, we stand behind our work and are one of only the top 1% of contractors in the country approved & qualified to offer the industry’s most comprehensive labor and materials warranty - the CertainTeed SureStartTM PLUS 5-Star Warranty, giving you peace of mind knowing your investment is protected for years to come.

How do you ensure the safety of my home during the project?
We prioritize safety by using our highly trained professional crews, high-quality materials, and adhering to strict safety protocols. We also take care to protect your property during the project as best as possible, including landscaping and other exterior features.

The timeline depends on the size of your roof and the scope of work, but most residential roof replacements are completed within a one or two days. During our initial consultation, we’ll give you a clear estimate of how long your project will take.
How long will my new roof last?
The lifespan of your new roof depends on the material you choose. For example, asphalt shingles typically last 20-30 years, while metal and synthetic slate can last even longer with proper maintenance.
How often should I inspect my roof?
Inspect your roof every couple of years or after any major storms. Regular checks help spot potential issues early.
How should I prepare my home for a roof replacement?
Start by removing or covering any valuable items from your attic, as debris might fall during the process. Also be sure to lay out an old blanket or tarp insude the home directly under any skylights on the home to catch and debris that may come in through the opening. Outside, move vehicles and outdoor furniture away from the home to avoid damage from falling materials, and inform your neighbors about the upcoming work.

We closely monitor the weather and take precautions to protect your home. In case of unexpected rain, we use tarps and other measures to keep everything dry and safe.
What is the cost of a roof replacement?
This is a tough question to try to give a universal answer since every home is different and there are many factors that play part in the investment in your roof. The cost of a roof replacement depends on factors like the size of your home, the materials used, and labor costs. For example, the labor costs increase if it is a very complex or very steep roof, over say, a roof that is easier to walk on and access.

Can I install gutters myself?
While DIY gutter installation is possible, it's tricky to ensure proper slope and secure attachment. Hiring a professional guarantees that your gutters will be installed correctly to protect your home.
Can clogged gutters cause roof damage?
Yes! When gutters clog, water backs up and can seep into your roof, causing leaks, wood rot, and even foundation issues.
Do I really need gutters on my house?
Gutters are essential for directing water away from your home's foundation, walls, and roof. Without them, water can cause erosion, leaks, and structural damage.
How can I tell if my gutters need to be replaced?
If you notice rust, cracks, sagging, or frequent leaks, it might be time to replace your gutters. Well-maintained gutters will protect your home from water damage.
How do gutter guards work?
Gutter guards act like a filter, preventing leaves and debris from entering your gutters while allowing water to flow through. They reduce the need for frequent cleanings and help keep your gutters functioning properly.
How do you ensure the safety of my home during the project?
We prioritize safety by using our highly trained professional crews, high-quality materials, and adhering to strict safety protocols. We also take care to protect your property during the project as best as possible, including landscaping and other exterior features.
How long do gutters typically last?
Most gutters last around 20 years, but their lifespan depends on the material and how well they're maintained. Regular cleaning and inspections will help extend their life.
How often should I clean my gutters?
You should clean your gutters at minimum twice a year, once in the spring and again in the fall. Though more regular cleaning better prevents clogs and helps avoid water damage to your roof and foundation.
What are seamless gutters, and are they better?
Seamless gutters are custom-made to fit your home and have fewer joints, which means less chance for leaks. They're often more durable and visually appealing compared to traditional sectional gutters.
What are the benefits of upgrading my gutters?
Upgrading your gutters improves water drainage, protects your foundation from water damage, better protects from overflow-caused roofline leaks, and enhances the overall appearance of your home. We offer gutter systems that complement your home’s style and function effectively.
What materials are best for gutters?
Aluminum is a popular choice for gutters due to its durability, affordability, and rust resistance. Copper gutters are more expensive but offer a unique, long-lasting aesthetic.
What should I do to prepare for a roofing or exterior project?
We’ll provide you with a simple checklist before the project starts, like moving vehicles and protecting outdoor items. Our team will handle the rest, ensuring the area is clean and safe throughout the process.
Why are my gutters overflowing?
Overflowing gutters are usually a sign of clogs from leaves, twigs, or debris. Cleaning them out or installing gutter guards can solve the problem and protect your home. Over time old gutters can also lose their original correct hang angle and no longer properly send water to the downspouts.

Are cracks in my window glass a big deal?
Cracks can compromise insulation and safety of your windows. It's best to replace cracked windows to maintain energy efficiency and security.
How do I know if my windows are safe?
Old or damaged windows can be a safety risk, especially if they don't lock properly. Replacing them ensures your home stays secure and gives you peace of mind.
How do I know if my windows are too old?
If your windows are over 15-20 years old, they may be due for an upgrade. Older windows tend to lose their efficiency and can start causing drafts and higher energy bills.
How energy-efficient are your window and siding options?
Our window and siding products are designed to improve energy efficiency, reduce heating and cooling costs, and increase your home’s comfort. We’ll help you choose energy-efficient options that best suit your home.
How long does it take to replace windows?
Window replacements for your home are usually relatively quick and hassle-free. Most installations can be completed in a day or two, depending on the number of windows.
Is it normal for my windows to make noise when it's windy?
No, that's often a sign that your windows are not sealed properly. Replacing them can reduce noise and keep your home more comfortable.
Is it normal to feel a draft coming from my windows?
No, drafts are a sign that your windows are not sealing properly. Replacing them can improve your home's comfort and reduce energy costs.
Should I replace all my windows at once or just a few?
It depends on your budget and the condition of your windows. While replacing all at once ensures consistent performance, you can start with the most problematic ones and phase in replacements over time.
What should I do to prepare for a roofing or exterior project?
We’ll provide you with a simple checklist before the project starts, like moving vehicles and protecting outdoor items. Our team will handle the rest, ensuring the area is clean and safe throughout the process.
Why are my windows foggy or have condensation between the panes?
Foggy windows usually mean the seals have failed, allowing moisture to get trapped between the glass. This reduces energy efficiency and indicates it might be time for a replacement.
Why is it so hard to open or close my windows?
If your windows are difficult to open or close, it could be due to warping, rust, or balance issues. New windows will operate smoothly and safely.
Will new windows really save me money on my energy bills?
Yes! Energy-efficient windows can significantly reduce your heating and cooling costs by keeping your home's temperature more stable.

How can I tell if my door is affecting my home's comfort?
If your home feels drafty or you notice significant temperature fluctuations near the entryway, your door could be the culprit. Replacing it with an energy-efficient model can help maintain a more consistent indoor temperature.
How do I know if my door's security is compromised?
If your door is flimsy, has a broken lock, or is starting to show signs of weakening, it might not be providing the protection you need. Upgrading to a sturdier, modern door will enhance your home's security and give you peace of mind.
How do I know if my entry door is no longer energy efficient?
If you feel drafts around the edges or notice your heating and cooling bills rising, it could mean your door's insulation is compromised. Replacing it with a modern, energy-efficient door can help keep your home comfortable and reduce energy costs.
How often should I replace my entry door?
Entry doors generally last around 20 years, but this can vary depending on material and maintenance. If your door is approaching this age or showing signs of decline, it's a good idea to consider a replacement for better performance and security.
Is it normal for my entry door to have gaps around the edges?
Gaps around your door can let in drafts, pests, and moisture, indicating that the door may be warped or that the weatherstripping is worn out. Replacing the door can restore a tight seal, improving your home's insulation and security.
What are the signs of wear and tear on my entry door?
Look for visible cracks, warping, or peeling paint, which are common signs that your door is aging and losing its protective qualities. These issues can affect both the door's appearance and its ability to protect your home from the elements.
What if my entry door looks outdated?
An outdated door can detract from your home's curb appeal and make it look older than it is. A new door can refresh your home's exterior, adding style and increasing its value.
What should I do if my door is letting in water during rain?
Water infiltration usually means the door or its seals are damaged, which can lead to mold, rot, and structural issues over time. A new door with proper sealing will protect your home from moisture and the problems it brings.
Why is my door difficult to open or close?
Doors that stick, are hard to open, or don't close properly could be misaligned due to warping or frame issues. This not only makes your door less functional but can also impact security and energy efficiency.
Why is my door making creaking or squeaking noises?
Creaking or squeaking could indicate that the door is no longer fitting properly within the frame, possibly due to settling or wear and tear. A replacement door will operate smoothly and quietly, improving your overall experience.

Can I still get power from the grid if I have solar?

The installation process typically takes just a few days once permits and approvals are in place. We handle everything from start to finish, making the process as smooth and hassle-free as possible.

Your savings will depend on your current energy usage and the size of your solar system. In Northern Virginia, homeowners can often see a significant reduction in their energy bills, with many eventually paying little to nothing each month.

The cost of solar installation can vary depending on the size of your system and your energy needs. With available tax incentives and financing options, we can help you find a solution that fits your budget and maximizes your savings.

You can take advantage of federal tax credits, state incentives, and potential rebates from your utility company. These incentives significantly reduce the cost of going solar, making it a smart financial choice for homeowners.

Our inspections and review of findings with you are quite thorough and detailed, so depending on the size and complexity of your roof or exterior, we generally ask that you set aside 1.5-2.5 hours of availability for the appointment. After our initial hello and brief review with you we will be at work inspecting for a while. Afterward, discuss our findings and answer any questions you may have.
How quickly can I schedule an appointment with Nest Exteriors?
We aim to offer flexible scheduling and can often book your inspection within 1-3 business days. Our team works around your availability to ensure a convenient and timely appointment.
How soon can work begin after the inspection?
Once the inspection is complete and you approve the project plan, we can typically schedule the work within a week, depending on the scope and your availability. We’ll work with you to get started as quickly as possible.
How soon will I get the inspection report?
We provide the results of the inspection immediately, either during the appointment or within 24 hours. You’ll receive a detailed report, including photos and recommendations for any necessary repairs or improvements.
What if I need an inspection for insurance purposes?
We’re experienced with insurance-related inspections and will provide the documentation and photos needed for your claim. We can also work directly with your adjuster to ensure all damage is properly assessed.
What if bad weather delays the inspection?
If bad weather is expected, we may have to reach out and reschedule your appointment for the next available day. We’ll always prioritize your safety and ensure the inspection happens under safe conditions.
What kind of information do I need to provide when scheduling?
When scheduling, we’ll ask for basic details like your address, contact information, and a brief description of the issue or service you’re interested in. This helps us prepare for your specific needs before the inspection.
What kind of roofing issues can you detect during an inspection?
We look for common issues such as missing shingles, leaks, water damage, and improper ventilation. Our detailed inspection helps identify both visible and hidden problems that may affect your roof’s performance.
What should I expect during the initial service appointment?
During the inspection appointment, our experienced team will assess the condition of your roof or exterior, identify any damage or potential issues, and provide you with a detailed report and clear, no-pressure recommendations for repairs or replacement. You can count on us for transparency and honest advice about what’s best for your home.
What types of roofing materials do you inspect and work with?
We inspect all types of roofing materials, including asphalt shingles, metal roofs, slate, and low slope membranes. Our team is experienced with a wide range of roofing systems, ensuring thorough evaluations and expert recommendations.
Will Nest Exteriors inspect my siding and gutters during the appointment?
Yes, if requested, we can inspect your entire exterior—including siding, gutters, and windows—during the appointment. This helps provide a comprehensive assessment of your home’s exterior needs.
Will you explain the inspection results in detail?
Absolutely! We believe in educating our clients, so after the inspection, we’ll walk you through our findings, explain any potential issues, and discuss the best course of action to keep your home protected.
