Roof Replacement in Omaha, NE — Down to the Deck
Roofs here get replaced for one of two reasons: hail finally bruised enough slopes to matter, or a twenty-year shingle put on during a building boom quietly ran out. Either way the answer is a tear-off. We strip to the wood, fix what is hiding under there, and rebuild with the eave and valley details this climate actually demands.

Roof Replacement
What a Full Replacement Includes
Tear-Off, Not Overlay
Every Layer Comes Off: Older Nebraska ranches often carry a second layer from a 1990s storm. Shingling over it traps heat, hides rot, and can void the material warranty. We tear off and haul away.
Bad Decking Replaced, With Photos: Soft sheets show up around chimneys, skylights, and old cooler patches. Sheathing is priced by the sheet in the contract so the number does not move on you mid-job.
Ice Barrier and New Metal: Membrane at the eaves and valleys, new drip edge, new pipe boots. Reusing twenty-year-old flashing under a new roof is how a new roof leaks.
A Site That Gets Cleaned: Plywood on the driveway, tarps over landscaping, and magnets over the lawn and the street before we pull out. Nails in tires are the complaint we work hardest never to earn.
Why Choose Kutsch for a Roof Replacement
The Number You Get Is the Number You Pay
Written Scope, Not a Handshake: Squares, layers, decking allowance, accessories, permit, and disposal are all on the estimate. If something changes on the deck, you see the photo before we bill it.
GAF, CertainTeed, and Owens Corning: We install products from manufacturers whose warranties are worth something and we honor the coverage those materials carry. The labor term is printed on your estimate.
We Meet Your Adjuster: On a hail claim we walk the roof with the adjuster, flag missed slopes and accessories, and bill the carrier's scope. Nobody here will offer to eat your deductible — that is fraud in Nebraska.
A Shop You Can Find in March: Storm season fills the state with out-of-state trucks that are gone by the time shingles start lifting. Our address does not change between storms.

Published 2025–2026 market guides put most Omaha asphalt replacements between $8,500 and $18,000, with mid-size homes clustering near $12,000, or roughly $350–$550 per square installed. That is a market range, not our bid. Pitch, layers, decking, and Class 4 shingles all move it.
When roughly a third of the roof is bruised, leaking, or missing shingles; when there are already two layers; or when patches keep chasing a leak that moves. We put that recommendation in writing after the inspection rather than stacking repairs.
One to three days for most homes once material is on site. The tear-off day is genuinely loud, so plan around naps and video calls, and expect the dumpster to hold your driveway for part of it.
We tear off. Overlaying cooks the attic, hides rotten sheathing, and can void a shingle warranty. Homes already carrying two layers get a full strip, no exceptions.
Only if the adjuster documents storm damage and your policy pays replacement cost. Actual-cash-value policies pay the depreciated roof, and replacement-cost holdbacks are typically released after the work is done — often within about 180 days. Your deductible comes out first either way.
No. The City of Omaha prices building permits on project valuation, so a typical residential replacement lands in the low hundreds. Other cities and unincorporated Douglas County pull their own. It is in our written quote.
