All questions

Who is a reputable roofer in Las Vegas?

Look for a Nevada contractor license you can verify at nvcontractorsboard.com, a local phone number, a written workmanship warranty and recent Google reviews. 702 Roofing is licensed under NV #0089388 with a $2.5M bid limit, is bonded and insured, and installs systems from Owens Corning, Johns Manville, Malarkey and Garland.

How much does a new roof cost in Las Vegas?

Cost depends on roof size, pitch, material, tear-off layers and decking condition, so honest pricing starts with an inspection. 702 Roofing gives a free inspection and a written, line-item estimate that you can compare against other quotes on the same scope.

What warranty does 702 Roofing offer?

Every job carries a written workmanship warranty on our labor, and we register the manufacturer's material warranty in your name at sign-off, so it stays in place no matter what.

What roof systems does 702 Roofing install on commercial buildings?

We install TPO, PVC, modified bitumen, spray foam, coatings, and tile and steep-slope systems. TPO is the most common choice for Las Vegas low-slope roofs; PVC is better for restaurants because it resists grease.

How long does a commercial reroof take?

A flat or TPO reroof typically takes about one week per 5,000 square feet. Access, tear-off layers and occupancy phasing can change that, and we confirm the schedule in the written proposal.

What is 702 Roofing's bid limit?

702 Roofing holds Nevada contractor license #0089388 with a $2.5M single bid limit, and is bonded and insured.

Do you work with property managers and HOAs?

Yes. We offer written proposals that fit board and owner approval processes, recurring inspections, and maintenance programs across multiple properties.

Does 702 Roofing work outside Las Vegas?

Yes. 702 Roofing serves all of Nevada. Crews work in the Las Vegas Valley every week, and we take commercial projects statewide, including Reno, Sparks and Carson City.

Have you completed commercial roofing projects in Reno?

Yes. We completed a TPO reroof at North Towne Apartments in Reno in 2024, phased around residents.

Is 702 Roofing licensed to work anywhere in Nevada?

Yes. 702 Roofing holds Nevada contractor license #0089388 with a $2.5M single bid limit, and is bonded and insured. You can verify the license on the Nevada State Contractors Board website at nvcontractorsboard.com.

Can you repair a commercial roof instead of replacing it?

Often, yes. If the membrane or foam is sound and the damage is local, a repair is the better value, and a coating can extend a roof that is still watertight. If the insulation is saturated or the membrane is failing across the roof, replacement costs less over time. We show you the photos either way.

Do you repair TPO and PVC roofs installed by another contractor?

Yes. We repair TPO, PVC, modified bitumen, spray foam and coated roofs regardless of who installed them, and we note anything that could affect an existing manufacturer warranty before we start.

Do you work around tenants and business hours?

Yes. We schedule repairs around occupancy and operations, and we coordinate roof access with property management.

Is 702 Roofing licensed for commercial work?

Yes. 702 Roofing holds Nevada contractor license #0089388 with a $2.5M single bid limit, and is bonded and insured. You can verify the license on the Nevada State Contractors Board website at nvcontractorsboard.com.

How long does a TPO roof last in Las Vegas?

About 20 to 30 years. Keeping drains clear, fixing ponding early and inspecting the seams and flashing on a schedule help a TPO roof reach the top of that range.

Should a restaurant use TPO or PVC?

PVC. It resists the grease that kitchen exhaust fans put on the roof, which breaks down other membranes. That is why the Linq Restaurant roof is PVC.

How long does a commercial TPO reroof take?

About one week per 5,000 square feet. Tear-off layers, access and occupancy phasing can change that, and the schedule is confirmed in the written proposal.

How often should a commercial roof be inspected in Las Vegas?

At least once a year, ideally before monsoon season, and after any major storm. Roofs with heavy foot traffic or rooftop equipment benefit from more frequent checks.

How long does a flat roof last in Las Vegas?

A TPO roof lasts about 20 to 30 years. A spray foam roof lasts 20 to 25 years when it's recoated on schedule. Keeping drains clear and fixing ponding early adds years to either one.

Is ponding water on a flat roof a problem?

Yes. Water that stays more than a couple of days speeds up wear on the membrane or coating and finds any weak seam. Low spots and clogged drains should be fixed before monsoon season.

Can a roof coating replace a new roof?

Not when the roof is failing. A coating extends the life of a roof that is still watertight and sound. If the membrane or foam is saturated or the deck is damaged, replacement is the right fix.

How fast can you tarp a leaking roof?

Emergency tarping is same-day in most cases. Call (702) 551-5715 and we'll get a crew out to stop the water, then schedule a full storm assessment within 24 hours.

Does insurance cover storm damage to my roof in Nevada?

Damage from a sudden event such as wind, hail or a monsoon storm is usually covered by homeowner's insurance. Wear and tear usually is not. We document the damage with photos and can meet your adjuster on site.

When is monsoon season in Las Vegas?

Monsoon season runs roughly July through September. Storms bring sudden wind, heavy rain and occasional hail, which is when most Las Vegas storm roof damage happens.

How do I avoid storm-chasing roofers?

Check the contractor's Nevada license at nvcontractorsboard.com, ask for a local phone number and a written workmanship warranty, and be cautious of anyone who knocks on doors right after a storm. 702 Roofing is licensed under NV #0089388.

Is metal roofing good for Las Vegas?

Yes. Reflective metal finishes help keep homes cooler, standing seam panels shed monsoon rain quickly, and metal doesn't crack in desert heat. It's a strong choice for modern designs and for structures that can't carry the weight of tile.

How often should I have my roof inspected in Las Vegas?

Once a year, ideally before monsoon season in July, and after any major storm. Tile roofs over 15 years old should have the underlayment checked, since it typically lasts 20 to 25 years in Las Vegas heat.

How long does a roof replacement take in Las Vegas?

A tile reroof on a 2,500 square foot home usually takes 3 to 5 working days. An asphalt shingle reroof takes 1 to 2 days. Weather and HOA approvals can add time, and we confirm the schedule in writing before work starts.

How long does a tile roof last in Las Vegas?

Concrete tile lasts 50 years or more and clay tile 50 to 75 years, but the underlayment under the tile typically lasts 20 to 25 years in Las Vegas heat. Many tile roofs need new underlayment, called a re-felt or lift and relay, around year 20 even when the tiles are fine.

Do I need a permit to replace my roof in Las Vegas?

Yes. Every reroof in Clark County, the City of Las Vegas, Henderson, North Las Vegas and Boulder City needs a roofing permit. 702 Roofing pulls the permit, schedules the inspection and clears the final, and the cost is included in our written estimate.

What is the best roofing material for Las Vegas?

Concrete tile is the most common choice because it handles heat well and lasts 50+ years. Clay tile lasts longer but weighs more. Architectural shingle is the most affordable and fastest to install. Flat roofs do best with TPO or spray foam. The right choice depends on your structure, HOA rules and budget.

What happens if it rains while my roof is open?

Crews tarp the deck at the end of each working day, and we tarp ahead of any forecast monsoon storm. If water gets in because of our work, the repair is our cost. 702 Roofing carries CNA insurance.

Is 702 Roofing licensed?

Yes. 702 Roofing holds Nevada contractor license #0089388 with a $2.5M single bid limit, and is bonded and insured. You can verify the license on the Nevada State Contractors Board website at nvcontractorsboard.com.

Can my roof be repaired instead of replaced?

Often, yes. If the underlayment is sound and the damage is limited to one area, a repair is the better value. If leaks keep appearing in different spots or the underlayment is failing across the roof, replacement usually costs less over time. We show you photos either way.

Does homeowner's insurance cover roof leaks in Nevada?

It depends on the cause. Damage from a sudden event such as wind, hail or a monsoon storm is usually covered. Leaks from age and wear usually are not. 702 Roofing inspects for free, documents the damage, and can meet your adjuster on site.

How fast can you come out for a leak?

Call (702) 551-5715. Active leaks get priority, and we can tarp the same day to stop more water from getting in while the repair is scheduled.

What is a tile roof re-felt?

A re-felt, also called a lift and relay, replaces the underlayment under a tile roof while reusing the existing tile. We lift the tile, install new underlayment and battens, replace broken pieces and reinstall the tile.

Can you match my existing tile?

In most cases, yes. We source matching profiles and colors for aged and discontinued concrete and clay tile so repairs blend in with the rest of the roof.

Do I need a permit for tile roof work?

Yes. Every reroof in Clark County, the City of Las Vegas, Henderson, North Las Vegas and Boulder City needs a roofing permit. 702 Roofing pulls the permit, schedules the inspection and clears the final, and the cost is included in our written estimate.

How do I file a roof insurance claim after a monsoon storm?

Photograph the damage from the ground, call 702 Roofing for a free inspection and same-day tarp if it's leaking, then call your insurer to open a claim. We can meet the adjuster on site and supplement the scope if needed.

Will you meet my insurance adjuster?

Yes. We meet the adjuster on the roof, walk the damage together and share our photo documentation so nothing gets missed.

Should I replace my roof before installing solar?

If your roof is more than about 15 years old or the underlayment is near the end of its 20 to 25 year life, yes. Removing and reinstalling panels for a later reroof adds significant cost.
