Your Trusted Hawaii Roofing Company
Comprehensive Roofing Services for Oahu Properties
We offer complete roofing solutions for residential and commercial properties across Oahu. Our licensed roofing contractors handle everything from small job roof repairs to full roof replacements, with specialized knowledge of Hawaii’s building requirements and climate challenges.
24-Hour Emergency Roof Leak Repair
When you discover a roof leak in Honolulu, every hour counts. Our humid climate creates the perfect environment for mold growth within 24-48 hours of water intrusion. We provide rapid emergency roof repair services throughout Oahu, including 24-hour roof leak repair for critical situations. Our emergency roof service responds quickly to fix roof leaks and prevent costly water damage.
We handle all types of emergency roofing situations, from storm damage and fallen tree branches to sudden leak detection and structural failures. For remote property owners, we document everything with detailed photos and videos so you understand exactly what happened and how we resolved it. Common emergency situations we address include roof leaks during heavy rain, wind-damaged shingles or tiles, punctured roofing from debris, failed flashing causing active water intrusion, and emergency roof repairs after tropical storms.
Our rapid response includes temporary weatherproofing to stop immediate water damage, thorough inspection to identify all affected areas, permanent repairs using quality materials, and follow-up documentation for insurance claims. Whether you need an emergency roof leak repair near you or scheduled maintenance, we’re available when you need us most.
Metal Roofing Installation & Repair
Metal roofs offer excellent hurricane resistance and longevity in Hawaii, but they require specialized installation and maintenance knowledge. We’re experienced metal roof installers serving Honolulu and surrounding areas, providing both new metal roofing installation and metal roof repair services.
Oahu’s salt air is particularly harsh on metal roofing systems. We specialize in residential metal roofing installation using marine-grade materials that resist corrosion. Our metal roofing contractors handle standing seam metal roofs, corrugated metal panels, metal shingles and tiles, and aluminum shake roofing systems. For existing metal roofs, we provide comprehensive maintenance including corrosion treatment, fastener inspection and replacement, panel re-sealing, rust removal and protective coating, and structural integrity assessment.
Properties near the ocean—from Waikiki to Kailua—face accelerated corrosion rates. We recommend annual inspections for metal roofs in coastal areas and bi-annual inspections for properties inland. Our maintenance services help extend the life of your metal roof investment significantly beyond standard warranties.
Tile Roof Repair & Maintenance
Tile roofs are common throughout Honolulu for their durability and climate resistance, but they require expert handling. Walking on tile roofs improperly can cause more damage than the original problem. Our roofing contractors understand proper tile roof techniques and have experience with both concrete and clay tile systems prevalent in neighborhoods like Kahala, Manoa, and Diamond Head.
We provide comprehensive tile roof services including cracked or broken tile replacement, loose tile re-securing, underlayment repair and replacement, flashing repair around tile roof penetrations, and valley waterproofing. Hawaiian tiles expand and contract with temperature changes, and improper repairs can lead to cracking or system failure. We use manufacturer-approved techniques and replacement tiles that match your existing roof.
For tile roof repair in Diamond Head, Hawaii Kai, or anywhere across Oahu, we ensure proper integration with your existing system. Our carpentry services team can also address any roof decking damage discovered during tile repairs.
Roof Leak Detection & Waterproofing
Not all roof leaks are obvious. Sometimes water enters through one area and travels along rafters before appearing as ceiling damage in a completely different location. We use professional roof leak detection methods to find the actual source of water intrusion, including infrared moisture scanning, water testing, and visual inspection of all penetrations and transitions.
Common leak sources we identify and repair include deteriorated flashing around chimneys and vents, cracked or missing tiles and shingles, failed sealant around skylights, valley deterioration from debris accumulation, corroded fasteners allowing water penetration, and improper roof-to-wall transitions. For properties in areas like Kaneohe and Kailua where afternoon rain is common, proper waterproofing is essential. We address underlying issues, not just visible symptoms, ensuring long-term leak protection.
Roof Inspection Services
Whether you’re buying, selling, or managing property transfers, professional roof inspections protect everyone involved. We provide detailed roof inspection services throughout Oahu, from pre-purchase evaluations to routine maintenance assessments. Our inspections are particularly valuable for military families going through PCS moves and remote property owners who need comprehensive documentation.
Our inspection service includes a complete evaluation of roof condition and remaining lifespan, detailed photo documentation of all components, written reports suitable for lenders and real estate transactions, identification of immediate repairs versus future maintenance, and cost estimates for necessary work. We’ve conducted hundreds of roof inspections across Honolulu, Kailua, Kaneohe, and throughout the island. Buyers appreciate our transparency, and sellers benefit from addressing issues proactively.
For remote property owners selling from the mainland, we coordinate directly with real estate agents and provide documentation that facilitates smooth closings. Our reports are thorough but straightforward—no inflated problems or unnecessary upselling.

Garage & Patio Roof Services
Don’t overlook your garage and patio roofs. These structures face the same climate challenges as your main roof but often receive less maintenance attention. We specialize in replacement garage roofs and patio roof installations throughout Oahu. Whether you need a simple garage roof repair or complete patio roof replacement, our team handles both residential and commercial applications.
Garage and patio roofs require specialized attention because they often have different pitch angles, drainage requirements, and integration points with main structures. We ensure proper weatherproofing where these structures connect to your home and address unique ventilation needs. Our deck and patio services team can coordinate roofing work with other outdoor structure improvements.
Commercial Roofing Services
Commercial properties face unique roofing challenges, from flat roof systems requiring specialized waterproofing to large-scale metal roof installations. We provide commercial roofing services throughout Honolulu, including roof repair, replacement, and ongoing maintenance programs designed to minimize business disruption.
Our commercial roofing contractors understand the importance of minimizing downtime and coordinating work around your business operations. We handle retail locations, office buildings, warehouses, and multi-family residential properties. For property management companies overseeing multiple buildings, we offer comprehensive property management services that include proactive roof maintenance scheduling and emergency response protocols.
24/7 Emergency Response for Critical Roofing Issues
Roofing emergencies don’t respect business hours, and in Honolulu’s climate, delays turn minor problems into major disasters. We maintain rapid response capabilities for emergency situations throughout Oahu. When you need emergency roof repair services, our team can typically be on-site within hours, even during evenings and weekends.
For active leaks or storm damage, we prioritize immediate property protection. This includes emergency tarping to stop water intrusion, temporary repairs to prevent further damage, safety assessment of compromised structures, and coordination with insurance adjusters when needed. Remote property owners particularly value our emergency response capability. When your tenant calls about a leak and you’re on the mainland, having roofing contractors who answer the phone and respond immediately provides invaluable peace of mind.
We handle all emergency roofing situations, including storm damage from tropical weather systems, fallen tree damage requiring immediate attention, sudden leaks threatening interior property, structural concerns requiring urgent assessment, and industrial roofing emergency repairs for commercial properties. Our emergency roofing services extend island-wide, from Waialua to Hawaii Kai, ensuring rapid response regardless of your property’s location.
Why Choose Handy Andy Hawaii for Your Roofing Needs
-
Local Oahu Expertise You Can Count OnWe’ve lived and worked in Honolulu for years, and that local knowledge makes a real difference when it comes to roofing. We understand which neighborhoods face the harshest salt air exposure, how afternoon storms typically move across the island from the Koolau Mountains, and which roofing materials hold up best in specific microclimates around Oahu. This isn’t knowledge you get from a textbook—it comes from working on hundreds of roofs across the island and seeing firsthand what works and what fails.
Our experience includes working on properties from urban Honolulu to windward communities like Kailua and Kaneohe, each with their own unique weather patterns and challenges. We know that a roof in Waianae faces different stresses than one in Manoa, and we adjust our recommendations and techniques accordingly. When you work with our roofing contractors, you’re getting someone who genuinely understands your property’s specific environment and the unique demands Hawaii places on roofing systems. -
Veteran-Owned And OperatedOur military service taught us values that we bring to every roofing job: accountability, attention to detail, and mission completion. When we commit to a project, it gets done right and on schedule. For military families managing properties during deployments or PCS moves, we understand the unique pressures you face. We’ve worked with numerous service members who need reliable stateside support while they’re stationed overseas or preparing for relocation.
Being veteran-owned means we operate with integrity and transparency. No surprise charges, no cutting corners, no excuses. We treat your property with the same care and professionalism we’d expect if our roles were reversed. That military mindset of “leave no one behind” extends to our customers—when you have a roofing emergency, we respond with urgency and follow through until the problem is completely resolved. -
Specialized Service for Remote Property OwnersA significant portion of our business comes from mainland property owners and investors who need a trustworthy local partner in Honolulu. We’ve refined our communication processes specifically for remote owners who can’t physically inspect work or meet face-to-face. Before starting any project, we provide detailed photo documentation of existing conditions. During repairs, we send progress updates with photos and videos. Upon completion, we deliver comprehensive documentation of all work performed.
We understand the anxiety of managing a Hawaii property from California, Washington, or anywhere else on the mainland. Time zone differences, communication delays, and the inability to verify work quality create legitimate concerns. That’s why we over-communicate and provide visual proof of everything we do. Many of our remote owner clients tell us they feel more informed about their Hawaii property’s condition than properties they own locally, simply because of how thoroughly we document and explain everything. -
Transparent Pricing and Honest AssessmentsOne of the biggest complaints we hear from property owners is that they never know if they’re being charged fairly. Hawaii’s isolated market and limited contractor availability create opportunities for price gouging, especially during emergency repairs. We operate differently. Our estimates are detailed and transparent, breaking down labor, materials, and any additional costs. We explain what work is truly necessary versus what can wait, so you can make informed decisions based on your budget and priorities.
We’ve built our reputation on honesty. If your roof doesn’t need replacement, we won’t try to sell you one. If a $300 repair will solve your problem, we’re not going to recommend a $3,000 solution. This approach has earned us long-term relationships with property owners who return for every roofing need and refer their friends and family. In Hawaii’s tight-knit community, word travels fast—both good and bad—and we’re proud that our reputation is built on integrity and fair dealing.

Frequently Asked Questions About Roofing in Hawaii
Got questions about our emergency restoration services? Click any question below for answers. If you don’t see your question here, call us anytime at (808) 285-3443.
How long does a roof last in Hawaii?
Roof lifespan in Hawaii varies significantly based on material type and maintenance. Metal roofs typically last 40-50 years with proper corrosion prevention. Tile roofs can exceed 50 years when maintained correctly. Asphalt shingle roofs generally last 15-20 years in Hawaii's climate—about half their mainland lifespan due to intense UV exposure and salt air. The best roofing material for Hawaii's climate depends on your specific location, budget, and property type. Metal roofs offer excellent longevity and hurricane resistance. Tile roofs provide superior heat reflection and durability. Regular maintenance dramatically extends any roof type's lifespan.
What causes roofs to fail faster in Hawaii?
Several factors accelerate roof deterioration in Hawaii. Salt air corrosion affects metal components and fasteners, particularly in coastal areas. UV radiation intensity breaks down roofing materials faster than mainland climates. High humidity promotes mold and organic growth in roof systems. Afternoon thermal cycling causes expansion and contraction stress. Tropical storms create sudden extreme stress on roofing structures. These combined factors make regular inspection and maintenance essential for Oahu properties.
Do you provide roof repair services in specific Oahu neighborhoods?
Yes, we provide roofing services island-wide including Hawaii Kai, Kailua, Kaneohe, Aiea, and all Honolulu neighborhoods. Our roofing contractors are familiar with the specific challenges different areas face. Windward communities like Kailua and Kaneohe experience more rainfall and humidity. Coastal properties from Waikiki to Portlock face accelerated salt air corrosion. We tailor our approach based on your property's specific location and exposure.
Can you handle small roofing jobs?
Absolutely. We specialize in small job roof repairs that many larger contractors won't handle. Whether you need a few tiles replaced, flashing repaired, or a minor leak fixed, we provide the same professional service as larger projects. Many property owners appreciate having a handyman roofing company that handles both minor repairs and major replacements. Our repair services cover everything from quick fixes to comprehensive restoration work.
How quickly can you respond to roof emergencies?
For emergency roof leak situations, we typically respond within 2-4 hours during business hours and within 4-6 hours after hours. Our 24-hour roofing company capability means you can reach us any time for critical situations. We prioritize active leaks threatening property damage and storm damage requiring immediate weatherproofing. Remote property owners benefit from our rapid response and comprehensive documentation of emergency situations.
What roofing services do you provide for commercial properties?
Our commercial roofing services include flat roof systems, built-up roofing, metal roof installation and repair, roof maintenance programs, and emergency commercial repairs. We understand commercial properties require minimal business disruption and flexible scheduling. We coordinate work around your operating hours and can provide phased repairs for larger buildings. Our experience includes retail locations, office buildings, warehouses, and multi-family residential complexes throughout Honolulu.
Do you work with property management companies?
Yes, we have extensive experience working with property management companies and remote property owners.
