Top Dog Exteriors installs asphalt shingle, exposed fastener metal, standing seam metal, TPO and EPDM roofing across the Greater Pittsburgh area. We are an Owens Corning Preferred Contractor, every roof carries a 5-year workmanship warranty, and we use the Hover app to build a 3D model of your home so you can see shingle colours on your actual roof before you choose.
The Difference That Actually Matters
Most Pittsburgh roofers install one system. We install five — so the recommendation you get is driven by your roof’s pitch, deck and drainage, not by what happens to be on the truck.
Every Top Dog roof includes a written, transferable 5-year workmanship warranty covering our installation labor — separate from and in addition to the manufacturer’s material warranty.
The instant price off satellite gets you a real number in about a minute, and it’s honest as far as it goes. What it can’t see is your flashing, your decking, or whether your attic has been venting properly for the last fifteen years. That’s why we still get on the roof before anybody signs anything.

Every Roofing Option We Install — and Exactly What It’s Warranted For
Warranty coverage is where contractors get vague. Here is ours in plain language, per product, so you can compare it against anyone else’s quote.
-
Architectural Asphalt Shingles
Most popularOwens Corning Duration® and TruDefinition® laminate shingles with SureNail® technology, installed as a complete system — starter, ice-and-water shield, synthetic underlayment, ventilation and hip-and-ridge cap.
Lifetime shingle + workmanship coverage — full details -
Standing Seam Metal Roofing
Longest lifeConcealed-fastener panels with mechanically seamed or snap-lock ribs. No exposed screws means no gaskets to dry out and no fastener backing-out ten years down the line. Ideal on low-slope-to-steep transitions and modern farmhouse elevations.
30–40 yr paint finish — full details -
Ag-panel and R-panel steel screwed through the face into purlins or solid deck. The most cost-effective metal system available — a fraction of standing seam cost with the same steel substrate and paint system.
25–40 yr paint finish — full details -
Heat-welded thermoplastic polyolefin in a reflective white that cuts summer heat gain. Fully adhered or mechanically attached over rigid insulation. Seams are welded, not glued — which is why TPO outlasts the rolled roofing it usually replaces.
15–25 yr membrane — full details -
Fully adhered black or white synthetic rubber membrane. Proven for decades on Pittsburgh flat roofs, exceptionally forgiving of thermal movement and ponding, and easy to detail around the pipes and curbs older homes are full of.
10–30 yr membrane — full details -
Leak diagnosis, flashing rebuilds, chimney and skylight re-flashing, valley repairs, and full documentation for insurance claims. We photograph and report before anything gets torn off.
1 yr leak-free guarantee — full details
See Your New Roof on Your Actual Roof
Choosing shingle colour off a two-inch sample board in a driveway is guesswork. We use Hover to build a true 3D model of your home from a handful of phone photos, then put real shingle colours on your real roof so you can see the decision before you make it.
Illustration — in Hover this is your actual home
-
01 We photograph your house
Eight photos from the ground on a phone — that is the whole capture. No drone, no ladder, nobody on your roof.
-
02 Hover builds a 3D model
Those photos become an accurate, measured 3D model of your actual home, with real square footage for every elevation and roof facet.
-
03 You try options on your own house
Swap shingle colours and profiles and see them on your roof, in your light, next to your existing trim and siding — not on a stock photo of somebody else’s house.
-
04 The measurements price the job
The same model produces the material take-off, so the quote is built from measured reality rather than an estimate of your square footage.
Want to see it on your house? Ask for a Hover model when you book your free estimate — it costs you nothing and it is the single best way to avoid the "I thought it would look darker" conversation after the job is done.

Discounted Seamless Gutters with a Full Roof Replacement
Replace your roof with us and your new seamless 5" gutters and downspouts come at a discount. The gutters have to come off for the roof anyway — combining the two means one mobilization, one crew visit, and a materially better price than having them done on their own later.
Get my instant roof priceOffer details & terms
Discount applies when seamless gutters are installed together with a complete roof replacement on the same job. Discount is off our standard gutter pricing; 6" upsizing, guards and fascia repair are quoted separately. Final pricing depends on linear footage and downspout count.

I’ve worked with Top Dog Exteriors on multiple roofing projects as a general contractor, and they have consistently delivered excellent results. Their team is professional, responsive, and takes pride in the quality of their work. They show…
-
The crew did an outstanding job — extremely clean, highly professional, and impressively efficient. Their communication throughout the project was excellent, keeping me informed at every step. They had repaired my roof last year, and when a severe storm came through, I knew exactly who to call. The owner was on site to check the workmanship, which gave me even more confidence in the quality of the project. The roof looks fantastic, and the entire process was smooth and well-executed. I couldn’t be happier with the results.

Answered my request for an estimate to repair storm damage to my home with inspection, and estimate in two days. When I confirmed and signed work started next day. Work was completed within two days and I added other items as the quality and attention to detail was first rate. I recommend.
Roofing Questions, Answered Straight
How much does a new roof cost in Pittsburgh?
Most full architectural shingle replacements in the Greater Pittsburgh area land between $9,000 and $22,000 depending on square footage, pitch, layers of tear-off and the condition of the decking. Standing seam metal typically runs two to three times an asphalt roof. Our instant roof quote tool gives you a real range for your specific address in about 60 seconds.
What does being an Owens Corning Preferred Contractor actually get me?
It is the credential that unlocks the Preferred Protection Roofing System Limited Warranty. That is the only Owens Corning warranty tier that includes contractor workmanship coverage — if the roof was installed wrong, Owens Corning stands behind fixing it. Non-credentialed roofers cannot register it at all.
How long does a roof replacement take?
A typical Bethel Park or Mt. Lebanon home is a single day. Larger or steeper roofs, and roofs with multiple layers to tear off, run two days. Metal and low-slope membrane systems take longer — we give you the real number in the proposal.
Do you handle insurance claims?
Yes. We document storm damage with dated photographs, meet your adjuster on site, and provide a line-item scope that speaks the same language as the insurance estimate. We do not, however, waive or absorb your deductible — that is illegal in Pennsylvania and any contractor offering it is telling you how they do business.
What is the difference between standing seam and exposed fastener metal?
Standing seam hides every fastener under a seamed rib, so there are no gaskets to fail and nothing to back out — it is the longest-lived metal roof you can buy. Exposed fastener panels screw through the face of the panel, which costs substantially less and installs faster, at the price of periodic screw and gasket maintenance. Both use the same steel and paint systems.
Can you roof a flat porch or addition?
Yes — that is exactly what TPO and EPDM are for. Shingles are not rated below a 2:12 pitch, so if someone quoted you shingles on a flat roof, get a second opinion. We weld TPO seams and fully adhere EPDM, both of which will outlast rolled asphalt several times over.
