Frequently Asked Questions
Priority Exteriors
Comprehensive Roofing Services
With 40+ years of team experience, we handle everything from standard residential homes to complex commercial projects. Our expertise includes:
- Asphalt Shingles: The most popular choice for Indiana homes, offering a perfect balance of durability and value.
- Metal Roofing: A “forever roof” option. We specialize in both standing seam and exposed fastener roofing systems, providing a sleek, modern look with extreme weather resistance.
- Flat Roofing: Expert installation for low-slope areas using high-quality membranes to prevent pooling and leaks.
We do both! Your project shouldn’t sit on a waitlist just because it’s a smaller repair. Whether you have a minor leak or need a total roof installation, our scalable crews are ready to deploy. We provide honest assessments—if a repair can extend your roof’s life, we’ll tell you. If a replacement is needed, we’ll offer the best price guaranteed.
Most contractors offer a 1–3 year labor warranty. Because our team is highly seasoned, we provide a 25-year craftsmanship warranty. Whether it’s an exposed fastener metal roof in Angola or asphalt shingles in Fort Wayne, we stand behind our work for a quarter-century.
Homeowners in cities like Fort Wayne and South Bend primarily face storm damage, ice dams, and shingle curling due to extreme freeze-thaw cycles. High humidity in the summer also leads to algae streaks and granule loss. With over 40 years of team experience, we specialize in weather-proofing roofs specifically for the Indiana climate.
While prices vary based on square footage, most Indiana homeowners can expect to pay between $7,000 and $15,000 for high-quality asphalt shingles. We consistently beat competitor pricing on identical materials and offer a 25-year craftsmanship warranty—nearly 8x the industry standard—ensuring you get the best value in the region.
- Asphalt Shingles: The most cost-effective option, offering great versatility and quick installation.
- Metal Roofing: Available in Standing Seam (hidden fasteners) or Exposed Fastener styles. Metal is a “forever” roof that reflects summer heat, lowering energy bills across Fort Wayne, Northeast Indiana, the Northern & Lake Regions, Central & Southern Corridor.
Yes. We provide specialized flat roofing membranes for low-slope additions and commercial spaces. We also handle emergency roof repairs, including flashing around chimneys and vents, which are the #1 cause of leaks during Indiana’s spring rains.
Premium
Siding & Exterior Protection
Every home has different needs, which is why we offer a variety of high-performance materials:
- Vinyl Siding: The most cost-effective and low-maintenance option. We offer premium grades that resist fading and wind damage.
- LP SmartSide Siding: An engineered wood product that offers the beauty of real wood with much higher durability against rot, insects, and impact.
- Cedar Siding: For a timeless, high-end aesthetic. Our 40+ years of experience ensure the specialized installation required to keep natural wood protected.
- Aluminum Siding: A lightweight, rust-resistant option for homeowners who value longevity and minimal upkeep. Provides premium protection against the elements and does not crack, warp, or rot. It’s a great option for those looking to have their siding last for decades.
- James Hardie Siding: James Hardie fiber cement siding is known for its unmatched strength and durability, including fire resistance and long-lasting color. Perfect for tackling Fort Wayne wind, rain, and temperature shifts.
Modern vinyl siding is an excellent, low-maintenance choice for many Indiana homes. It is budget-friendly and comes in “insulated” versions that help with thermal retention, especially during South Bend’s heavy lake-effect winters.
While the industry average for siding is currently 8 weeks to 8 months, our streamlined supply chain and multiple dedicated crews allow us to start and finish most projects within 1 to 6 weeks. We pride ourselves on getting your home’s “envelope” sealed quickly and professionally.
We use the exact same high-quality products (like LP SmartSide) and offer the same manufacturer warranties, but we consistently beat competitor pricing. By keeping our overhead local and our crews efficient, we pass those savings directly to you.
Superior
Windows & Energy-Efficiency
Look for Double-Pane or Triple-Pane windows with Low-E glass and Argon gas fills. These are essential for the Midwest to keep heat in during January and out during August. We offer the same top-tier products as national installers but at a significantly lower price point.
If you see fog or condensation between the glass panes in your Auburn or Huntington home, your seals are broken. This means your windows are no longer insulating your home. We prioritize efficiency and can restore your home’s efficiency before the next season hits.
- Your windows don’t open or close properly.
- Your windows are drafty or let in cold air.
- The glass is cloudy or permanently fogged.
- Your windows aren’t providing adequate noise protection.
- You currently have outdated single-pane windows.
- The window style no longer matches your home.
Spring and fall are the most popular times of the year to replace your windows; however, we can come by and replace any time of the year.
Why Priority Exteriors Is the
Best Home Exterior Company in Indiana
Choosing a contractor shouldn’t feel like a gamble. At Priority Exteriors, we have over 40+ years of collective expertise, ensuring that homeowners across Northern and Central Indiana receive a level of service that national “big-box” companies simply can’t match.
Here is why we are consistently rated as the top choice for roofing, siding, and windows:
The industry standard for labor warranties is a mere 1 to 3 years. We find that unacceptable. Because we trust our master-level installers, we provide a 25-year craftsmanship warranty. If there is an issue with our installation, we fix it—no questions asked. This isn’t just a promise; it’s a decades-long commitment to your peace of mind.
Tired of being told your new windows or roof will take 8 months? We’ve disrupted the traditional waitlist model. By maintaining scalable, dedicated crews and a lean supply chain, we move from contract to completion in 1 to 6 weeks. We work at the speed of your life, not the speed of a corporate backlog.
We use the exact same high-performance products and offer the same manufacturer warranties as the major national franchises. The difference? We tend to beat their pricing every time. As a local company, we keep our overhead low and pass those direct savings on to you. You get the best products at the best price, guaranteed. Plus, get A+ customer service. See our A+ rating on BBB.
