Is your roof showing signs of wear, damage, or aging beyond repair? When repairs are no longer enough, a full roof replacement is the safest and most cost-effective solution to protect your home.

At Universal Roofing & Construction, we provide expert residential roof replacement services in Pleasant Hill, IA, designed to restore your home’s value, safety, and curb appeal.

Why Roof Replacement Matters?


Your roof plays a critical role in defending your home from Iowa’s unpredictable weather—ranging from heavy rain and snow to wind and hail. Over time, even the most durable roofing systems can deteriorate. Missing shingles, frequent leaks, sagging areas, and excessive granule loss are all signs that your roof may be beyond repair. Ignoring these problems can lead to costly structural damage, mold growth, and reduced energy efficiency.

A timely roof replacement ensures your home stays protected and increases the overall value of your property. With Universal Roofing & Construction, you can count on quality craftsmanship and materials that stand the test of time.

We follow a detailed and transparent roof replacement process tailored to each Pleasant Hill homeowner’s needs:

  1. Roof Inspection and Consultation:
    Our process begins with a free, no-obligation inspection. We assess the condition of your existing roof, identify problem areas, and determine whether a full replacement is the best option. We’ll walk you through our findings and provide a detailed estimate.
  2. Material Selection:

  3. Professional Installation:
    Our skilled roofing crew works efficiently and respectfully to remove your old roof and install the new one. We prioritize safety, cleanliness, and attention to detail on every job.

I wanted share what an incredible experience we had with Russell Allen and Universal Roofing! Russell understood the relationship with our Insurance Co.and guided us step by step through the process of the inspection and communication with insurance. We were approved in 1 day for full replacement including the gutters and downspouts! They were very prepared and even made several repairs to the roof that were not visible until they removed the old roof. Here is Russell's info - make sure to give him a call, it will be worth it!Robert EvansNovember 10, 2025
It was a pleasant experience to work with Universal Roofing, for roof replacement, Juan Delao and Selma worked with us during the whole process and got the roof replaced, made us aware of the post activities (mainly periodic observations/inspections etc) and we are delighted to Recommend them for roofing related work.Atul BhingardeNovember 7, 2025
Cole Nolan was an excellent representative of what an elite and professional roofer should be. A claim was filed and originally denied, Cole worked tirelessly over nearly 1 year to ensure that a beautiful Owens Corning roof was placed on my home. Without his knowledge, experience, and expertise during the process, I am certain the insurance claim would have continued to be denied. Cole is the example that all roofing contractors should strive to be in making sure the customer is taken care of to the very end!Todd FranklinNovember 6, 2025
Very nice and work efficient company! Highly recommend working with Erick Franco Villa!!Leslie cardenasNovember 4, 2025
Cole Nolan did a great job walking us through the insurance claim process and getting our roof replacement covered with Allstate in record time. New roof looks awesome! Highly recommended!Glen HNovember 3, 2025
Alex from Universal Roofing was incredibly knowledgeable and professional when he came to my home. He took the time to explain everything clearly, answered all my questions, and made sure I understood the best options for my roof. You can tell he truly cares about his customers. Highly recommend Universal Roofing if you’re looking for honesty, quality, and expertise! Thank you AlexCristina ContrerasOctober 29, 2025
Cole and his team did an amazing job, not only on construction, but on dealing with our insurance company. At first they only wanted to pay $900 to do a small patch. Cole got them to replace almost the whole thing and fought for every inch. I would give 10 stars if I could.Andy DuggerOctober 28, 2025
What an incredible experience we had with Cole from Universal Roofing! From start to finish, Cole walked us through what to expect with the process, how long it would take, when the scheduling of the work would take place and he was available at a moment’s notice with any questions we had. Cole consistently went the extra mile and put in much extra work to ensure everything went smoothy. He was our advocate with our insurance company and immediately responded when more information was needed. He took care of many things behind the scenes so he would not have to bother us. While the work was being completed, the crew was professional and polite and the next day, we couldn’t tell they had been there except for the great roof we now have. In thinking back over our experience, I can’t think of a better customer service experience I’ve received from ANY business or individual of any kind. I knew throughout the process that Cole had our best interest at heart, and he was not out just to make the next job happen. He genuinely cares about people, and it shows. I would highly recommend Cole and Universal Roofing without hesitation!Jeff GrantOctober 13, 2025
We needed some repairs, not a full replacement, due to a home inspection while in the process of selling. Kyle came out to look and he was very fast, and professional. He did the research to find the exact make and model of the existing shingles and installed where needed meticulously. This was our second experience with them and we are very happy with their work, speed, communications...Dana BukerOctober 5, 2025
Cole and Selma were a great team during my family's roofing issues caused by Hurricane Helene. Due to their efforts, the homeowner's insurer finally paid everything it owed after months of stonewalling. They were meticulous and kept my family and I up to date on all the developments. I can't recommend them enough!Ambadas JoshiSeptember 17, 2025
Kyle was easy to work with and professional. He went on my roof on a rainy day and gave me an estimate. Once we were able to schedule a repair date they showed up on time and worked efficiently.Joshua PaeAugust 27, 2025

Cole and his team are great. They came out on short notice and got my roof repaired before we moved in. Great communication and quality work.Chris ScarpaJune 3, 2025
One of the smoothest transactions I have ever had with a roofing company. I worked with Russell to assess the damage on my roof. Russell, was able to walk me through the damage, the claims process and what to expect when filing a claim. Russell kept me up to date on the process, and when I can expect the team to arrive after the claim was approved. What is even more impressive is that Russell and the team were able to provide detail evidence the damage, even after the claim had been denied twice. He did not see the denial as a problem, rather a bump. I truly appreciate his diligence with my specific case. Russell is not a storm chaser, in my case he was a problem solver. Absolutely recommend him for any future work.Jean RodriguezJune 2, 2025
After hurricane Helena came thru Augusta, GA last September, my property suffered some damages including my roof. Two of my neighbors recommended Universal Roofing, and especially Cole whom I contacted immediately. I was very impressed with this kind young gentleman who assessed the damage to the roof and from then did all the work with the insurance. Him and Selma kept me informed regularly (I exchanged many emails with Selma who guided me and reassured me as the insurance was very slow to respond). Finally came the day when Cole arrived with his team to replace my roof. They were prompt early morning, put tarp all around my house to cover plants and worked until the work was completed.Then they searched for and removed any little debris all around the house which looked like nothing had happened except I had a new beautiful roof. I want to thank them and particularly Cole for his kindness, efficiency, ethics, and professionalism. I give him a A+. NicoleNicole PerrinMay 6, 2025
There was a storm coming, and this team replaced our roof in a under a day -- and did incredible work. Pics like this one sent to us throughout, left a clean site, etc. The owner Pete has got to be one of the hardest working men in Georgia. Showed up when he said he would. And if delayed, texted or called. No games. Highly, highly recommend these guys and PRAY they don't get so busy that they get too busy. This is the way it should be done.osunsasfulApril 18, 2025
We had Cole Nolan come and do a roof inspection because of the recent storms. After finding damage he advise us to file a claim. He was able to walk us through the process step by step. We highly recommend Cole Nolan with Universal Roofingpatel BhavinApril 17, 2025
We have been having lots of issues with our builders grade roof after the last few big storms we have been getting here in the south. Cole came to our rescue and was very informative and helpful with process of replacing our roof. His team started early in the morning and were done and cleaned up by the time we got home from work. We highly recommend working with Cole. He will take great care of you and your roof!Stevi SchulteApril 8, 2025
Universal Roofing responded right away to my message, and then they inspected, quoted, and corrected the problems--all within a week! Great people to work with. Alex Jenkins is my favorite. He's very professional.Gail EverettApril 1, 2025
We recently used the Greenville SC location to replace cracked siding and to paint the entire exterior of our home. The team is reliable and performs professional work quickly and efficiently. We were very pleased with the results and the reasonable price. We highly recommend Universal Roofing & Construction and will use their services again.Melani MMarch 30, 2025
Had a tree fall on our house. Kyle came out and quickly assessed the damage. Gave a quick quote and it was a very fair price. Guys came out and repaired the hole in the roof, replaced the damaged gutter, downspout and leaf guard. Looks like nothing ever happened! Would highly recommend Kyle and the URC team to anyone needing fast and fair repairs!Josh FitzpatrickMarch 27, 2025
Russell and his team were great! His excellent communication helped us navigate each step of the way, especially helping us understand what to expect regarding the insurance details. I recommend him and the team with the utmost confidence.John NortonMarch 21, 2025
Thank you Universal Roofing & David Locke! This group knows how to take care of their customers. They stand behind what they say.
