I can't say enough about how great it was to work with Jethro and his team! Jethro was a wonderful salesman, who walked us through all of the details of our job, was very clear on what work needed to be done and how they would do all of it. Ryan and Dylan worked with us on our job, along with Jethro being on-site and taking great care of us. They were extra considerate about our landscaping and new driveway. We had updates sent to us throughout the roofing process and tons of pics! We are very happy with how sharp our new roof looks, the quality of the materials and quality of the work that was done. I love the color and little details that modernized our roof. The crew worked hard for two days in the extreme heat and did a fantastic job! They were also very considerate cleaning up. Go with Jethro and you won't go wrong!

I've never had my roof inspected & really didn't know what to expect. Drew was continuously in contact with me prior to my inspection appointment, he arrived right on time. He was extremely courteous and explained, in depth, what he was going to do during the inspection, making sure that I understood. He took his time and was very meticulous. Upon completion he then proceeded to explain his findings & what was needed to solve my roof issues. Drew was easy to understand and knowledgeable of how to solve these issues. I'm extremely satisfied and impressed with the service I received from Drew as a representative of MHI...he is quite an asset to this Roofing Company...

After talking with nearly 10 roofing companies, I decided to go with MHI. They were the ONLY company to actually go in the attic, on the roof and fly a drone over when giving me a quote. Another company that was a close second for me, never went in the attic and then added nearly 5k onto the total project. MHIs quote was impressively thorough and accurate from the start. They were on time, quick and professional. New roof looks great and their clean up was phenomenal. They respected and protected my plants. I went around afterwards looking for leftover nails and seriously couldnt find any. That is so impressive and makes me happy, as I have animals who go outside. For the value, warranty and service, they are hard to beat. My neighbors had their roof done by them too about 5 years ago and still looks great. Im happy to recommend! For a project this big, could not have gone better.

My new shingle roof is beautiful. This company was easy to work with. My representative, Josh was excellent from beginning to end. His follow up throughout the process was excellent. All questions were answered in timely fashion without delays. I was refunded money because I didn't need wood replaced. The pictures they took showed the wood under my slate roof was very good.The clean up was 100% perfect and Josh was able to have the dumpster removed from the driveway on a Saturday on 4th of July weekend.I recommend this company to all who need a roofer. They are top notch and their communication is perfect.Highly recommend MHI ROOFING.

Met with Josh and Kevin to get an estimate on a new roof and had a very informative experience. They were able to address all my concerns and guide me in. The best possible solution for my roofing needs. I look forward to the job being completed by MHI roofing and and the very least recommend giving them a chance to come out and give you an inspection and estimate!
Project: I had a complete roof installation. All new architectural shingles and re-sheeting. Rolled roof for the low slope roof on the back of the house.Overall: It was a great project. The roof was completed in one day. The roof looks great and the crew cleaned up really well. No issues during installation. MHI will not be the cheapest option, but paying the price for the top GAF certification and warranty is worth it.Customer Service: Our sales expert (Josh Marshman) was excellent throughout the whole process, from initial contact and estimate until completion. Josh even addressed some follow-up questions and visited my home afterwards. He was half of the reason why I selected MHI (the other half being experience and warranties). Josh was very personable, honest, took the time to explain everything, and we were always in contact. I would highly recommend asking for Josh if you are looking for someone to give you one-on-one customer service throughout your project.

We are very impressed with the professional, dedicated and knowledgeable staff and crew from Cam who came out to do the roof inspection, to Dylan (on-site supervisor) and the hard-working efficient crew! The crew did a wonderful job cleaning up our yard. If we could give more than 5 stars, we would! Highly recommend!!

Update 5/11/2023: New roof was installed today. Justin (today’s site foreman) said he’d be at our house at a certain time and he was - exactly!Today’s crew worked diligently and efficiently. They cleaned up the worksite so well that you wouldn’t even know they were here - as if the new roof just magically appeared! I’m in awe at how they can climb high ladders with such ease as they carry heavy packages of shingles over their shoulders. One guy did leave behind his sunglasses, but we’ll pass them on to the soffit and gutters team which is next on the project list.There is one bad thing about today’s new roof installation: The roof looks beyond amazing, but the faded siding is now screaming, “Paint me!”New roof photos follow.———————Following major wind and storm damage and after emergency tarps were put on the roof (tarps not pictured below), we made contact with MHI Roofing on a Saturday. The following Tuesday (yep, 3 days later!) Jethro showed up on time and did a thorough inspection. We decided to go with MHI Roofing for 4 reasons:1) They are an established small business. They only do roofs (every shingle day!), not windows, not doors, not siding. Just roofs.2) Jethro was very knowledgeable about the roofing trade (in the same way we are very knowledgeable in our lines of work), and he fully understood and sympathized with our frustration with the insurance company’s unreliable claims inspection subcontractor.3) While Jethro and MHI Roofing are entitled to make a commission and/or profit, the estimate was not grossly overpriced. Is it expensive? Yes, but this is a major purchase; much of the costs that small businesses have to endure today are due to situations beyond their control (hyper-inflation, transportation and manufacturing delays, high energy costs). We are all feeling the vise tighten. While neighbors may want to cut corners and costs that are detrimental to a home’s covering (and subsequent long term value), we wanted it done correctly. MHI Roofing has check all the important boxes (so far).4) We didn’t walk into this blindly. We did our research. We also didn’t feel pressured by MHI Roofing. Wind and storm damage is unsettling on your primary dwelling (especially on the roof!), but trying to get the insurance company to do their job effectively became the most frustrating part of this journey.Our new roof is on hold (MHI has ordered the materials) while we wait on the insurance claims subcontractor, but we’re excited and will be able to rest easier once this project is underway and then successfully completed!Photos are the “before” pictures since we’re waiting on the insurance company.

Jethro was very pleasing to work with. He showed up on time during the busiest time of the day and still had a great attitude. Jethro was very knowledgeable about roofing, siding, gutters, proper ventilation etc.. He pulled out the drone to get views of the roof that you’d never see from a ladder 🪜 I’m glad that I contacted MHI, you can’t go wrong with folks that do this “Every Shingle Day”! 😂. Their Awesome 👌🏾

MHI Roofing did a fabulous job on my roof replacement. From start to finish the job was well done. Free inspection and estimate of roof with Cam was informative and accurate (estimate was within dollars of the final cost). He explained the process, the team and the financing options. I was called by Andy to schedule my roofing project. Clear and concise process to get supplies ordered and delivered to get the crew out asap. And finally Josh’s team of roofers lead by Marcelo did an excellent job. They showed up right on time, got to work, got the job done and cleaned up all in the same day. Not only did they do this, but they provided above and beyond customer service. They sent continuous pictures of the project and keeping me informed about any added costs that arose as they found boards that needed to be replaced! I would highly recommend them for anyone in the greater Pittsburgh area!

Great work! Had roof rejuvenation, vents resealed and ridge vent replacement. Crew was on time and completed the job quickly. There were a few issues that I brought to Chance’s attention and he was extremely quick to come on site and do an inspection and get the issues fixed immediately. Overall I am very satisfied with the level customer service from Chance Decker and the quality of work done on my house.

Awesome experience. Started with a thorough estimate and ended with a roof that will stand the test of time. Zach, Josh, and the installation crew were super professional and lived up to our very high expectations (a neighbor recommended MHI). Couldn’t be more pleased and gives me peace of mind with the quality of work and best in class warranty.

Josh and Dario and his crew were very professional and available for any questions or concerns that we had. Never stopped, except for lunch, despite several setbacks not of their making. We were kept apprised of all obstacles they encountered and made part of the solution process of dealing with them. Overall a very positive experience. Thank you Josh and Dario and the rest of the crew.

Save Money and the Planet with Solar Installation in Pittsburgh

MHI Roofing has been devoted to helping our customers with their roofing needs for almost a decade. With clean, renewable solar energy, we are venturing into another great service we can provide to the members of our community. As new technologies come on the market every day, we believe that solar will soon revolutionize the entire roofing industry.
MHI Roofing is well-versed in all things roofing, and now we are achieving the same expertise in the solar world. We source the highest quality Tier 1 modules, the best in the market. Using panels manufactured by leading companies and with the best technologies, you will need fewer panels on your roof to get the job done. Plus, they are backed by the best warranties.

We don’t want just anyone drilling holes and attaching solar panels to your roof with the possibility of creating leaks in your home. With expertise in both roofing and solar, we are here to offer you the best combination of services to help protect your home and save money on your electricity bill!

Why Go Solar?

Save Money

Your savings with solar depend on a few different factors, like how much energy your system produces and how much you consume. But the biggest factor is the increasing rates you would otherwise pay to your power company. According to a report done by Energy Sage, the average American homeowner will pay off their solar panel system in seven to eight years and will see an ROI of 20 percent or more.

Go Green

Our nation’s current process of generating power is not sustainable. It uses valuable resources and finite fossil fuels, which contribute to the pollution of our planet. With a solar power system installed on your home, you can create your own personal renewable power grid.

Tax Incentives

The most significant incentive to install solar panels for homes and businesses is the federal tax credit. Right now, the federal tax credit has been extended to 26% of the total installed cost of your new solar system for the next 2 years. At the end of 2023, the amount of the credit is expected to end, unless renewed by congress. This means that in order to maximize your savings potential, the best time to go solar in Morgantown is now!

Increase Your Home Value

Not only will adding solar panels to your home save energy costs and help the environment, but it also can potentially increase a home’s value and help your home sell quicker. According to Zillow Research, homes with solar-energy systems sold for 4.1% more on average than comparable homes without solar power. For the median-valued home, that translates to an additional $9,274.

Solar Roof FAQs

What happens to solar panels when it’s cloudy or raining?

Solar panels still work even when the light is reflected or partially blocked. If the sun is up, your system will generate power.

Can you install solar roofs on any type of residence?

If you’re unsure whether or not your property is fit for solar roofing, talk to your MHI Roofing representative. While most buildings can handle a solar roof, installation is most cost-effective depending on the shape of your roof and where your panels are placed. We’re happy to address any concerns you may have and help you find the best solution so that you can enjoy the benefits of solar!

The Pros and Cons of Asphalt Shingle Roofing

When making your decision about the type of roofing you prefer, there will be pros and cons. It’s best to know what to expect.

Pros of Asphalt Shingles

Homeowners love asphalt shingles because you can get a really beautiful roof without breaking the bank. There are so many color styles to choose from; you can even find styles of asphalt shingles that look like other roofing materials, but for a fraction of the cost.

Cons of Asphalt Shingles

Even though asphalt shingles last a long time, they actually have the shortest lifespan compared to other roofing materials. Severe weather can also deteriorate their lifespan a little more quickly, which is why it is important to properly maintain them over time.

Tax Incentives

The most significant incentive to install solar panels for homes and businesses is the federal tax credit. Right now, the federal tax credit has been extended to 26% of the total installed cost of your new solar system for the next 2 years. At the end of 2023, the amount of the credit is expected to end, unless renewed by congress. This means that in order to maximize your savings potential, the best time to go solar in Morgantown is now!

Shingle Roof FAQs

What’s the cost of a new asphalt shingle roof in Pittsburgh?

The average asphalt roofing replacement costs about $12,500 for a 2200 square foot home. However, the final cost of your roofing project will depend on the types of shingles you choose, the size of your home, and if there is any underlying roof work that needs to be taken care of. Our team will make sure to outline everything in your inspection so that you know what to expect before we start working on your roof.

What are the most popular types of shingle roofs in Pittsburgh?

Architectural shingles are often the top choice for homeowners because they last longer than three-tab shingles and come in more style variety. We’re happy to listen to what your vision is for your roof so that we can help you choose the best option for your home.

We recognize that deciding to install a solar roof is a big decision. It can also be difficult to understand the process, installation, and technology. Our MHI Roofing team is here to answer all of your questions and help guide you through the entire process. Give us a call today to go over your solar options.
