Let’s get started with a rough estimate of when it was built. Now, pick a color for the roofing shingles. Don’t forget to check if you need a building permit for the roof replacement in your area. It’s usually a simple process with a small fee.
Make sure to clear out your garage and driveway so the material delivery won’t block your cars. Keep your pets and kids safe inside while the work is going on.
Take a walk around with the Crew Leader once they’re done to ensure everything is up to your liking. When the job is all done, pay the Crew Leader the remaining balance along with any additional charges like for replacing rotted wood.
Now, sit back and enjoy the new roof! Brag to your friends and neighbors about how you did it yourself and saved some cash.

DIY Process
With the Pro Report, you get all the measurements you need to plan and budget your project. The sketch report has the Pitch Diagram, Measurement Diagram, Measurement Report, Area Diagram, and Edge Label Diagram. Plus, you’ll get a list of materials, the EZ Project Manager checklist, the option to buy materials at wholesale prices, and hire a labor crew if you want. Your report will be emailed to you within 24 hours.
You also get a free satellite measurement, thanks to one of our sponsor vendors. They provide a partial report for your roof replacement project. This sketch report includes the Measurement Diagram, Area Diagram, and Edge Label Diagram. You’ll get the material list, labor and material costs (pre-contractor markup), a full retail replacement estimate, and the DIY EZ Project Manager. The sponsoring vendor will receive the Pro Report and will be in touch to assist you through the process and answer any questions you have.
Swapping out your roof can get tricky and even risky. We really suggest you leave the heavy lifting and climbing to trained experts. While some homeowners can tackle this project, it’s vital to do your homework first to see if it’s up your alley. Think about stuff like project size, roof complexity, safety, weather, and asking for a hand from others.
At DIY Contractors, we’ve teamed up with certified, licensed, and insured service providers who work as independent crews for some of the top roofing companies in the US and Canada. We’ve nailed down fair service rates and estimated your labor costs using the satellite Pro Report.
Once the project is done and you’re happy with their work, you pay them directly with cash or check.
If you’ve got the full report, you’ve got all you need to find and hire your own crew. Just use the report to look around for a labor crew that suits you best in terms of value and quality of work.
You’ll usually get results for your paid report back in about 24 hours. Free reports might take a bit longer as they’re given to you at no cost by a sponsoring vendor.
We’re here to help those who’ve finally said, “Out with the old roof, in with the new!” Let’s make sure we’ve got your digits right to keep your roof game strong. No delays, just good vibes and a sturdy roof ahead!
If you buy the report, don’t worry – we won’t be passing on your info or report to any other groups or roofing companies. But if you go for the free report, we’ll share your details with one of our vendors who’s kindly sponsored your satellite report.
Our service is mainly for folks who own single-family homes. But hey, we’re also cool with commercial groups, multi-family properties, property management crews, and individual owners with multiple properties. Just hit us up directly!
Labor and material prices may differ depending on the region, but when it comes to roofing companies, they typically add extra costs for overhead, commission, and profit margin. This usually falls in the range of 30-45% on top of the actual cost of goods and services.
Support, Terms & Conditions, and Information
Sure thing! If you notice storm damage like leaks after a bad storm, see your neighbors getting new roofs, or get door-to-door solicitations, just give your insurance agent a call. Ask for an adjuster to come out and take a look – it’s as simple as that! If the adjuster approves your claim, you can use the funds to hire DIY Roofs for your roof replacement.
If you’re not happy with the service, don’t pay the Crew Leader for the labor part of the project. Just reach out to us. DIY Contractors will sort things out for you. And hey, remember, our workmanship is guaranteed by DIY Contractors (some limits apply).
Certainly! We are dedicated to supporting you at every stage of your journey. Reach out via phone or email, and a member of our team will connect with you within 24 hours.
General Terms & Conditions
Our complimentary service targets homeowners keen on bypassing intermediaries to save thousands through our user-friendly online method. While our aim is to offer homeowners a no-cost service, providing satellite measurements, reports, and estimates incurs expenses for DIY-Contractors.com. Therefore, the complimentary satellite roof report is subject to a local roofing contractor sponsoring this cost before we can proceed with your request. By sponsoring your free satellite report, the local roofing contractor hopes you’ll consider their services for your replacement requirements.
Upon submitting your request, you authorize DIY Contractors to share your contact information with the sponsor for discussing this valuable data. Please note that DIY Contractors cannot guarantee a roofing contractor will sponsor your report.
In cases where your request lacks accuracy or completeness, you are not the property owner, you are a contractor, you decline follow-up calls from a local roofing company, or you do not plan to use the DIY Process for roof replacement, DIY Contractors reserves the right to cancel your free report request at our discretion.
For individuals whose requests remain unsponsored, get canceled, or wish to compare retail prices to estimated job costs, DIY Contractors offers a Pro Report option at $29.00. Many homeowners have successfully saved money using this information to negotiate better rates with their preferred contractor.
