Schedule Your Free Roof Inspection
A roof inspection on a Lapel home is a walk the roof process, not a glance from the ground. We check shingle condition for granule loss, cracking, bruising, and lifted tabs, then look closely at flashing around chimneys, vents, and valleys where leaks usually start. We inspect the ridge, the drip edge, and any problem areas showing signs of storm impact or plain old age, and we document what we see with photos so you have a record. A lot of Lapel roofs are quietly past their service life, and small issues like a couple of missing shingles or worn pipe boots turn into interior damage fast if they sit through another storm season. Catching it early keeps a repair a repair.
I agree to be contacted by Lapel Roofing regarding my inquiry.
Chimneys wider than a stride need a cricket, the small peaked diverter that splits water around the masonry instead of letting it dam behind it. Plenty of Lapel chimneys never got one, and the roof behind them holds a slow puddle after every rain. The stain shows up inside, along the chimney chase, and the Madison homeowner reseals the flashing twice before anyone mentions the missing piece of roof.
Yards get treated like the crew lives next door on Lapel Roofing jobs. Tarps down before the first shingle moves, plywood over the AC unit and the koi pond, and magnet sweeps at the end of every day, then once more before the trucks leave Lapel. The Madison lawn a family walks barefoot in July should not remember the roofing project from May.
Solar going on your Lapel roof? Call Lapel Roofing at (812) 515-1567 before the racking crew drills. The roof gets assessed for the decades the array will sit on it, attachment points get planned onto structure, and shingles at end of life get flagged now instead of under the panels later. Across Madison, the cheapest time to fix a roof is before solar makes it a project.

Local Expertise, Real Results
A roof is judged in the fifth winter, not at the final walkthrough.
Out-of-state trailers show up after every Madison hailstorm and disappear before the first warranty call. Lapel Roofing is the other kind of roofer: local address, local crews, and a phone number that answers in year five.
Lapel Roofing serves Lapel and the surrounding Madison County communities, along with nearby Pendleton, Anderson, Fortville, and Ingalls. Founded in 2018 by Aaron Christy, who has been featured on FOX59, WISH TV, and RTV6, the company has spent years focused strictly on roofing work across central Indiana. Our crews are local, licensed, and insured, which matters when you are trusting someone to walk your roof and hand you an honest assessment. Whether your home sits off Pendleton Avenue or on a quieter street closer to Woodward Park, we treat every Lapel roof the same way, with care and straight answers.
The way we work in Lapel is simple. Every job starts with a thorough on roof inspection where we check shingles, flashing, valleys, penetrations, and the areas most likely to fail first, then document what we find with photos so you can see it too. From there you get a written estimate that spells out the scope in plain language, no vague line items or pressure to decide on the spot. When the work happens, our crews stay tidy on site and finish clean, because a roof job should end with a solid roof and a yard that looks like we were never there.
Our Promise
Our promise to Lapel homeowners comes down to three things. First, a free on site inspection before we ever quote a repair or replacement, so the recommendation is based on your actual roof, not a guess from the driveway. Second, an honest written estimate with a clear scope and transparent line items showing up later. Third, clean workmanship backed by a workmanship warranty alongside the standard manufacturer coverage on the materials we install.

Storm And Hail Response
Central Indiana takes hits every spring, and hail as small as three quarters of an inch can bruise shingles without leaving obvious damage from the ground. When storms roll through Lapel, we prioritize inspections for homeowners who suspect impact damage, get on the roof, and mark what we find. You get photo evidence and a clear next step.
Local Roof Experience
Many Lapel homes are mid century ranches and two story traditionals with standard gable roofs on their first or second shingle cycle. We know how those roofs age, where the flashing tends to fail, and what a 25 year old asphalt roof actually looks like up close. That context shapes an honest recommendation, not a sales pitch.
Full Scope Roofing
We handle inspections, repairs, emergency tarping, full replacements, and designer roofing under one roof. That means the same crew that assessed your roof is the crew that fixes it, so nothing gets lost between the estimate and the finished job. One point of contact from first call to final walkthrough.
Insurance Documentation Done Right
If your roof has storm damage, the paperwork matters as much as the fix. We photograph the damage, write it up clearly, and provide documentation your insurance carrier and adjuster can actually use. works with your insurance carrier, but we make sure nothing gets overlooked in the claim.

Our Approach on Lapel Roofs
The first step for any Lapel roof is the inspection. We come out, walk the roof when it is safe to do so, and check the areas where problems actually start, meaning shingles, flashing, valleys, penetrations, and the ridge. Everything gets documented with photos, including the parts that still look fine, so you have a full picture of your roof's condition. Before any work is discussed, you know exactly what we found and where. From there we outline a clear scope, whether that is a targeted repair, a couple of problem areas, or a full replacement conversation.
Next comes the estimate and, if a storm is involved, the insurance side. You get a written estimate that lays out the scope in plain terms, with pricing you can review at your own pace. If your Lapel roof has storm or hail damage, we help you document it properly for your insurance carrier and are available to meet the adjuster on site so the same damage gets seen by both parties. works with your insurance carrier, and we do not push you toward filing a claim if the damage does not warrant it. Honest read, every time.
Then the work gets scheduled and done. Our crew shows up on the agreed day, protects landscaping and siding around the work area, and completes the roofing work with attention to the flashing, underlayment, and details that matter long term. Cleanup happens as we go and again at the end, including a magnetic sweep for nails. Before we leave your Lapel home, we walk the job with you, review what was done, and answer questions. If something needs a follow up under the workmanship warranty, you know how to reach us.

What we see most often on Lapel roofs
Lapel homeowners typically call us about these scenarios.
Gutters Pulling Away From the Fascia
When gutters sag in Lapel, the usual cause is not the gutter. It is fascia board that has softened because water has been running behind it. Lapel Roofing checks the fascia and the drip edge before quoting gutter work, because rehanging a gutter on rotten wood buys you one season.
Tree Limbs Resting on the Roof
Branches touching the roof do not have to fall to cause damage. Every breeze drags them across the same few shingles and wears the granules off a strip, so Lapel Roofing tells you which limbs are worth cutting back and which sit far enough off the slope to leave alone.
Porch Roofs Too Flat for Shingles
Porch and addition roofs are usually shallower than the main slopes. A shingle roof sheds water downhill by overlapping; it does not hold water back, so wind-driven rain in a Lapel storm gets under the laps and shows up along the wall inside. Lapel Roofing tells you when the answer is a proper low-slope material instead of another course of shingles.
Roof Leaking After a Storm
Wind lifts shingle tabs and breaks seal strips, and the leak often shows up rooms away from the entry point as water tracks along decking and framing. Lapel storms produce exactly this call every spring. Lapel Roofing traces the actual entry point, documents wind damage to carrier standards, and repairs the field, not just the stain on the ceiling.
Holes Left by Dish and Panel Mounts
Anything bolted to a roof puts a hole through it, and that hole is only as good as what went in around it. Dish and panel installers often shoot a lag straight through the shingle and cover it with a dab of sealant, which holds until the sealant cracks. Lapel Roofing finds abandoned mounts on Lapel inspections, flashes or patches the opening properly, and checks the decking below it.
Squirrels and Raccoons at the Roof Edge
Scratching overhead in a Lapel attic usually starts with wood that was already soft. Squirrels and raccoons work a rotted rake board or the gap under a lifted shingle edge, and once the opening is chewed to size they come back to it every year. Lapel Roofing replaces the board and rebuilds the edge detail, because stapling wire over soft wood buys you one season.

Common Lapel Roofing Questions
Straight answers to the questions Lapel homeowners ask most.
Indiana Weather Affects Roofs Year Round
Indiana sees some of the most varied weather in the country. Lapel homeowners deal with spring hail and severe thunderstorms, summer UV exposure, fall wind storms, and winter freeze thaw cycles. Understanding these patterns is how we plan maintenance, repairs, and replacement work.
Hail Bruising On Shingles
Hail hit central Indiana as recently as March 2024, and even sub inch stones can bruise asphalt shingles, cracking the mat under the surface without an obvious hole. Those bruises open the door to leaks months later. When we inspect a Lapel roof after hail, we mark impacts, photograph them, and put together clear documentation for your claim.
Wind Lifting And Tearing
Straight line wind events over 60 mph have moved through the region multiple times in recent years, including in November 2020 and January 2024. Wind that strong lifts shingle tabs, breaks the sealant strip, and tears shingles clean off the deck. We repair torn sections, replace missing shingles, and check the surrounding field for shingles that lifted but did not fall.
Ice Dams In Winter
Indiana winters swing between thaw and freeze, and that is exactly how ice dams form at the eaves. Water backs up under the shingles and finds its way into the attic or the ceiling below. On Lapel roofs we look at insulation, ventilation, and ice and water shield coverage, and we address the shingle side of the fix.
Granule Loss On Aging Roofs
A lot of Lapel roofs are past the 20 to 25 year mark, and mature tree cover along older streets adds constant debris that grinds away granules. Once the granules are gone, UV cooks the mat and the shingle fails fast. If we see heavy loss in the gutters or bald spots on the roof, we tell you plainly whether it is repair territory or replacement territory.
Choosing the Right Roof for Lapel Homes
An honest breakdown of the three systems we install most frequently.
Architectural asphalt shingles are the most common choice on Lapel homes, and for good reason. They balance cost, curb appeal, and dependable weather performance, come in a wide color range that suits ranches, two stories, and everything in between, and carry strong manufacturer warranties when installed correctly. The dimensional look adds depth compared to the old three tab style, and the heavier weight holds up better against Indiana wind. For most Lapel homeowners planning a replacement on a budget that still makes sense long term, architectural asphalt is the tier that gets picked. We install it with the underlayment, starter, and ridge details the warranty actually requires.
Impact resistant Class 4 shingles are built to take the kind of hail that bruises and cracks standard asphalt. Given how often central Indiana runs through spring and summer storm cycles, that matters for Lapel homeowners who have already been through one hail claim and would rather not go through another. The heavier construction also tends to hold granules longer, extending the useful life of the roof. Ask your insurance carrier whether your policy offers a premium credit for Class 4 shingles, since many do, though we cannot promise a discount on your specific policy. It is worth the phone call before you decide.
Standing seam metal has the longest service life of the three tiers, often outlasting two or three asphalt roofs on the same home. The concealed fasteners eliminate the exposed screw failure point you get with cheaper metal panels, it sheds snow and ice cleanly, and upkeep is minimal for decades. The tradeoff is honest, the upfront cost is significantly higher than asphalt, sometimes two to three times. What you are buying is time, meaning fewer replacements over the life of the home and less to think about after storms. For Lapel homeowners planning to stay put long term, the math often works.
