Storm Damage & Emergency Tarping

Pre-Purchase & Insurance Inspections

Buying or selling a home in Sterling? A pre-purchase roof inspection gives you real leverage in negotiations and peace of mind about what you're actually buying โ€” no guessing about remaining roof life.

Flashing, Gutters & Attic Ventilation

A roof is only as good as the parts that direct water off it. We repair and replace step flashing, valley flashing, chimney flashing, and gutters that have pulled away from the fascia โ€” small jobs that prevent big leaks down the road.

Customer Reviews

{We don't cherry-pick these โ€” they're representative of the calls, texts, and reviews we get after most Roofing jobs in Sterling.}

โ˜…โ˜…โ˜…โ˜…โ˜…

"We had a leak show up during a storm at night and I honestly didn't expect anyone to answer the phone. Big Toms Roofing had a crew tarping our roof within a couple hours and came back two days later to do the real repair. Can't recommend them enough."

โ€” Marcus T.
Sterling Resident
โ˜…โ˜…โ˜…โ˜…โ˜…

"The estimate they gave us matched the final invoice exactly, which after two other quotes from companies that kept adding line items, was a relief. Crew was professional and cleaned up better than I expected."

โ€” Tom W.
Homeowner, Sterling

"They handled the entire insurance claim conversation with our adjuster, sent over photo documentation, and honestly made a stressful situation way less stressful. Roof looks great too."

"Their inspection before we bought our house flagged ventilation and flashing problems that weren't obvious on a walkthrough. Glad we called them before closing, not after."
