What Each One Covers

The Seven Services in Plain Terms

Roof Replacement. Full tear-off and a new Owens Corning shingle system, with most Columbia homes finished in a single day.

Storm & Hail Damage Restoration. Roof hail damage identified by a HAAG certified inspector, documented slope by slope, and scoped in Xactimate for your insurance claim.

Siding Replacement. Old siding off, sheathing and house wrap inspected, openings flashed, new panels and trim on. Same crew that does your roof.

Asphalt Shingle Roofing. Owens Corning architectural shingles installed with the nailing, ice barrier, flashing, and ventilation details that decide how long a roof lasts.

Commercial Flat Roofing. Flat and low slope roof systems for Columbia offices, retail, and multifamily buildings, sequenced around your tenants.

Emergency Roof Tarping. Storm-opened roofs tarped and secured to stop water spreading inside, documented for your claim, then replaced.

Free Roof Inspection. A HAAG certified inspector walks the roof, photographs every slope, and tells you what you actually need. No cost, no obligation.

Gutter work is not a standalone service here. It arrives bundled: a full roof replacement includes 100 feet of gutter with gutter guard and downspouts, written into the scope so it is not a conversation later.

Everything Starts on the Roof

Nothing gets quoted from a kitchen table. Lassana Diakite is a HAAG certified inspector, so the walk is done the way a claim requires: every slope photographed, hail strikes chalked, granule loss and lifted tabs recorded where they are rather than described in general terms.

You see those photos. If the shingles have years left, that is the finding, and there is nothing to sign.

Scope in Writing Before Anything Is Ordered

Retail jobs get a firm number and a firm install date. Insurance jobs get priced in Xactimate, which is what the carriers use, so the line items are already in the format an adjuster reads.

Permits get pulled as part of the job. Howard County and most of the towns around it require one on a roof replacement, and the county inspection is scheduled around, not skipped.

Great job on my roof in Glen Burnie. Handled all the insurance claim. Very good crew. No complaints the roof look great, great clean up as well. I highly recommend.

Install Day Is Short by Design

Most residential replacements come off, get decked and go back on inside a single day, which keeps the house from sitting open under a tarp overnight. The old roof goes to bare wood, failed sheathing is shown to you and replaced, ice and water barrier runs the eaves and valleys, then underlayment, Owens Corning architectural shingles, flashing and ridge vent. Before the truck leaves, magnets go over the lawn and the driveway.

What We Do Not Do

Patch-and-hope repairs are not on this list, and neither is standalone gutter or downspout work. The trade is replacement and restoration: a system that is finished gets replaced, and storm damage gets documented and restored. Emergency tarping is the one exception, because a roof that is open right now needs covering tonight, ahead of any scope conversation.

Our Services FAQ

Which service should I start with?

The free roof inspection, whichever way you are leaning. It costs nothing, it settles whether the roof is actually finished or has years left, and the photos give you something to argue from if a claim is involved.

Is the inspection really free?

Yes, and there is nothing to sign at the end of it. If the roof is fine, we say so and leave.

What areas do you serve?

Columbia, MD and the surrounding Central Maryland counties: Howard, Anne Arundel, Montgomery, Prince George's, Carroll, Frederick & Baltimore Counties, roughly a 35-mile radius from Columbia.

Do you do commercial work?

Light commercial, yes. Flat and low-slope systems on small commercial buildings sit alongside the residential work. Anything larger, call and describe the building.

How do I get started?

Call (667) 200-6656, email office@diakiteroofingrestoration.com, or send the form. We call back to set a time. Hours are Mon-Sat 8:00 AM - 5:00 PM.

Lassana came out and looked at my roof after all the crazy storms going around and told me that my roof doesn't have any damages yet whereas all the over roofers told me I need a new roof. My Roof was only 10 year old
