More questions

Who is the best roofing company in Pittsburgh?

That depends on your roof, but here is what you can check about us. Big Fish Roofing is a GAF Master Elite contractor and holds GAF’s 3 Star President’s Club award, the highest contractor recognition GAF gives. That status lets us register GAF’s Golden Pledge warranty, which covers workmanship for up to 25 years and materials for up to 50 years. We hold Pennsylvania contractor license #119464 and offer free drone roof inspections.

How do I get an estimate?

Book a free drone inspection online or call (724) 954-3827. A Big Fish project manager inspects your roof, often with a drone, and gives you a written estimate with no obligation.

Do you help with insurance claims?

Yes. You file the claim with your insurer. We document the damage with photos and drone images and send supplements to your insurer when the adjuster’s estimate leaves out work the roof needs. Insurance usually covers sudden damage from hail, wind or fallen trees, not wear from age, and you are responsible for your deductible.

What areas do you serve?

We serve Pittsburgh and Western Pennsylvania from our office at 202 W Bridge Dr in Morgan, including Bethel Park, Carnegie, Mt. Lebanon, Upper St. Clair and Bridgeville. For homes in Central or Eastern Pennsylvania, our sister company Greenawalt Roofing handles the work.

What warranty comes with a new roof?

Every residential roof replacement includes our in-house workmanship warranty for 12 years from installation. With the GAF Golden Pledge warranty, workmanship is covered for up to 25 years and materials for up to 50 years, including the leak barrier, roof deck protection and ridge cap shingles. Full terms are on our warranties page.
