Ongoing maintenance is the secret to getting the most from any roofing system. Church roofs are no different—regular inspections can ensure no damage goes overlooked, and keeping your roof clean with your drainage system in proper working order will prevent leaks and other common roofing ailments.
As an experienced church roofing contractor, we understand the specialized demands of repairing and replacing these unique roofing systems. The Dolan Roofing & Construction team takes careful precautions with every church roofing project to ensure safety and quality.
Because churches often have steeply pitched roofs, safety is paramount. Our team follows established safety protocols when it comes to tying off and maneuvering around these steep slopes during the repair and installation process. We also take care to plan well in advance when it comes to transporting new roofing materials and old roofing debris to and from the roof.
In addition, many churches are older, and even historical, buildings. As seasoned roofers, we understand the importance of maintaining the character of these structures while providing a new, high-quality roofing system. We take care to protect the rest of the building during roofing work, and we always clean up after ourselves when the job is done.
Compared to other roofing projects, we understand that churches often present unique circumstances when it comes to insurance and funding roofing and other construction work. As an experienced church roofing contractor, we’ve worked around these circumstances before, and our team knows what to expect. We’ll maintain clear communication to make sure we’re following all necessary protocols throughout the roofing process.
It can be difficult to determine whether a roof should be repaired or replaced, and for large roofing systems this decision is even more impactful in terms of cost. Roof replacements make sense as a long-term investment, but roof repairs can often address most common types of roof damage. Here are a few questions that may help determine whether your roof needs to be repaired or replaced.
If your church roofing system was recently installed, it will be more feasible for a skilled contractor to repair it. However, as roofs age they become more difficult to repair effectively. Once your roof is at or near the end of its expected lifespan, it will become more cost-effective to replace the roof entirely than to attempt a repair.
As a rule of thumb, roof repairs are highly effective at repairing minor to moderate damage, or even more severe damage that is relatively isolated. However, the more significant or widespread the roof damage is, the more expensive a repair will be. If damage is fairly severe across much of the roof, then a roof replacement will likely be the best option.

With a wealth of experience in both residential materials and commercial-scale projects, we’re uniquely equipped to serve as your church roofing contractor.

Churches can feature a wide variety of roof designs. Tented roofing is particularly common for churches and other houses of worship, as this style of roof was especially favored in medieval times and churches have continued to draw inspiration from this. However, more modern churches may use more standard roof types such as hip or gabled styles, or even flat roofing systems.
Most traditional church buildings opt for asphalt shingles, as this is the most affordable and common material used for pitched roofs. However, churches may also feature tile or even metal roofing.
