A residential roofer either performs targeted repair (lifted shingles, popped nails, failed flashing, single-leak diagnosis) or a full tear-off and replacement. A reputable contractor will start with a multi-point inspection: shingle condition (granule loss, curling, cracking), flashing integrity around chimneys/sidewalls/penetrations, ridge and soffit ventilation, attic moisture signs, and decking condition (you don't know about rotten plywood until tear-off). Asphalt shingle is the dominant material in 80% of US homes; metal and tile dominate in storm-prone or arid markets. All re-roofs require a permit and at least one mid-roof inspection by the local AHJ in most jurisdictions, and OSHA 1926.501 requires fall protection for any work at heights above 6 feet — a non-negotiable safety/insurance issue.

Door-to-door storm-chaser pitches, "we just did your neighbor's roof" without proof, asking for full payment up front, no permit pulled, or the company refusing to provide its state contractor license number.
