Can Kokua Roofing build the structures under a roof?

What areas of the island do you service?
We proudly provide roofing and repair services across the Big Island, Maui, Kauai, Oahu, and Molokai.
Does Kokua Roofing install shingles over shingles?
At Kokua Roofing, we prioritize long-term quality and durability. While installing shingles over an existing layer may seem like a quicker option, it often compromises the integrity and lifespan of the roof. For this reason, we recommend removing old shingles to inspect the roof deck and ensure the new installation is secure and built to last.
Can you install a product purchased by the home owner?
We strive to deliver the best results by using materials we source and trust. This allows us to ensure proper compatibility, full warranty coverage, and the highest quality for your project. If you’ve already purchased a product, let us know—we’d be happy to discuss options or recommend the best course of action for your roofing and repair project.
