Slate is an excellent choice if you're looking for a forever roof. You will only need to install it once in your lifetime. It will also increase your home's value because it is both durable and beautiful.

Metal
Metal roofs provide outstanding energy savings. A metal roof is typically made with aluminum, steel, or copper and there are a variety of colors and styles available.

Shingle
Shingle roofs are one of the most affordable roofing options. They are a perfect roofing material for steeped roofs and large commercial roofs.

TPO roofs are great for the environment and save on utility bills. TPO is made of environmentally friendly material and it is highly resistant to tears, punctures, and dirt build-up.

I had my grand mother (In Hopewell) call Harper because of a roof leak. She said the worker was very polite and explained to her what the issue was with her roof. They came back promptly for the repair and she has not had a leak since. THANK YOU!!!
She went to the office to pay in person and the secretary even gave her a discount on her repair. She explained that the service took less time than originally quoted and made an adjustment on her bill.
Harper is very honest and i would reccomend them to anyone. Thank you again for helping my grand mother.

I was selling my home and my realtor’s contractor gave me a 10,000 estimate saying i needed a new roof. I knew that wasn’t right and seeked a second opinion. Harper and sons roofing stated i only needed a step flash and that i DIDNT need a new roof. THANK YOU for being honest, as being female, contractors usually try to cheat me.
