Veteran-owned, family-run roofing across New Castle & Kent County, Delaware. No high-pressure quotes. No fake "today only" discounts. No kitchen-table closer. One fair price, a 50-year GAF warranty, and a roof installed in a day.
We specialize in asphalt shingle roof replacements, but we handle the gutters and siding that come with the job too. One crew, one point of contact, one honest number.
Full tear-off, new underlayment, and GAF Timberline HDZ architectural shingles installed by Jim's own crew. Most homes done in one day.
Most roof replacements pair with new gutters — we install seamless aluminum systems sized for Delaware's storm seasons so water moves where it should.
Vinyl and fiber-cement siding repair, replacement, and storm restoration. We match what's on your house and fix the underlying water damage at the same time.
Most Delaware roofers decline this job. Diamond State doesn't. If your solar array is 10+ years old and the roof underneath is leaking, we coordinate the full workflow — panel de-mount with your licensed solar contractor, full GAF Timberline HDZ replacement, then clean re-mount on new flashing.
The big roofing companies wouldn't pull their kitchen-table sales routine on their own employees — so we don't pull it on you. One fair quote, one crew, one veteran-owned local business that's been doing this since 2013.

Jim was incredibly professional, knowledgeable, and helpful throughout the entire process. What stood out was how much he helped me navigate the insurance process to get my roof replacement covered. The crew was respectful of my property and did a great job cleaning up afterward.
Jim was professional and fair in price. I received 5 quotes and his took me from start to complete. New roof, new rafters, wrapping, plus new gutters. My roof was in bad shape and I could not be more pleased. Now I have peace of mind.
Diamond State just replaced the roof on my home and I couldn't be happier. Jim helped us file a claim with our insurance after storm damage. The crew did an awesome job and the cleanup was just as thorough as the work itself. The yard was left the same way they found it.
Jim Moody started Diamond State Property Preservation in 2013 with a simple promise: keep overhead low, give one honest number, and stand behind every roof.
Thirteen years and 500+ roofs later, that promise still runs the company. Jim still answers the phone. Jim still walks every roof before a quote goes out. And Jim still trains every crew member the same way the military trained him — show up, do the work, leave the place better than you found it.
