Our Services

What Big Toms Roofing Handles in Columbia

From a single missing shingle to a full tear-off, our Columbia crews handle every stage of roofing work with the same attention to detail โ€” licensed, permitted, and cleaned up when we leave.

01

Storm Damage & Emergency Tarping

A leak that starts as a small stain can rot decking and framing within weeks. Our emergency response teams treat every active-leak call in Columbia as urgent โ€” temporary stabilization first, permanent fix scheduled right behind it.

Pre-Purchase & Insurance Inspections

Buying or selling a home in Columbia? A pre-purchase roof inspection gives you real leverage in negotiations and peace of mind about what you're actually buying โ€” no guessing about remaining roof life.

Gutter, Flashing & Ventilation Repair

A roof is only as good as the parts that direct water off it. We repair and replace step flashing, valley flashing, chimney flashing, and gutters that have pulled away from the fascia โ€” small jobs that prevent big leaks down the road.

"We had a leak show up during a storm at night and I honestly didn't expect anyone to answer the phone. Big Toms Roofing had a crew tarping our roof within a couple hours and came back two days later to do the real repair. Can't recommend them enough."
