Tycho Solutions handles roofing company in Phoenix, AZ, plus new construction roofing. Complete systems installed to the deck, not patched.
Phoenix’s roofing stock spans mid-century ranch homes with low-slope built-up or foam decks near the urban core to pitched tile and shingle subdivisions pushing out toward the edges of the valley. Intense UV breaks down asphalt-based underlayment and felt years before the visible roofing material shows wear, so a roof that looks intact from the street can already be failing at the deck.
Monsoon season adds wind-driven rain that finds every underlayment gap, cracked pipe boot and lifted tile, and on low-slope sections poor original drainage lets water pond long enough to work through seams that never leak in a dry climate. By the time staining shows up inside, replacement down to the deck is usually the only fix that holds.
We tear Phoenix roofs back to the deck and rebuild the whole system, because a patched roof in this heat and monsoon cycle just fails again.
We walk the roof, photograph what we find, and tell you whether it needs replacing now or has time left.
Tycho Solutions installs and replaces roofing systems for new construction, custom homes and commercial developments throughout Phoenix, built to handle intense UV exposure, monsoon storms and the demands of an established, growing city.
Phoenix’s mix of infill lots in established neighborhoods and large-scale development on the city’s edges means new roofs get built to very different specs. We work from architectural plans for custom homes and coordinate directly with builders and general contractors on commercial projects, installation and replacement only, never repair calls.
Central Phoenix carries a large stock of ranch and mid-century homes whose original roofs are reaching the end of their service life under decades of desert sun. We handle the full tear-off and system replacement, sized for Arizona’s UV exposure and monsoon wind and rain, never a patch job.
A large share of Phoenix’s commercial buildings and mid-century flat-roof homes call for a different system than pitched shingle or tile. We install spray polyurethane foam roofing for a seamless, fully adhered membrane that insulates against summer heat and keeps monsoon rain from finding a way in.
For custom homes and architectural builds across Phoenix, standing seam metal gives owners a roof built to shed heat instead of absorb it, an advantage at this elevation where surface temperatures climb hard through summer. We install concealed-fastener panels engineered for long-term performance under that load, never a repair patch.
Phoenix’s older pitched-roof subdivisions were largely built with concrete and clay tile, and replacement is a full system job, not a broken-tile swap. We pull and replace tile down to the deck, install new underlayment and battens, and reset the tile for the decades of service it’s meant to give.
Many of Phoenix’s pitched residential roofs, from established neighborhoods to newer subdivisions, are built for architectural shingle. We strip the old roof to deck, install new underlayment and ice-and-water protection, and lay a full shingle system sized to hold up under monsoon wind without needing a repair call.
Phoenix builders and homeowners bring us in because we handle the full roofing scope, new construction, tear-off and replacement, tile, foam, metal and shingle, under one license and one crew. That means one point of contact from framing inspection to final walk-through, not a rotation of subcontractors.
Roofs installed under Arizona’s UV load need a warranty that means something. Every Tycho roof carries a written manufacturer warranty on the materials.
One project manager tracks your Phoenix roof from permit pull through final inspection, so nothing stalls between framing, dry-in and tear-off crews.
We spec tile, foam, metal and shingle systems rated for Phoenix’s UV exposure and monsoon wind, not the cheapest option that meets code.
Phoenix’s housing stock breaks into a few distinct eras that matter for roofing: mid-century ranch homes with low-slope roofs near the urban core, pitched tile subdivisions built through the 1980s and 1990s toward the city’s edges, and newer shingle and tile developments further out with larger lots and more complex rooflines. Each era was built to a different structural spec, so a replacement has to match what is actually under the surface, not just what it looks like from the street.
In this climate the failure point is almost never the tile, the shingle or the foam itself, it is the underlayment and flashing underneath. High summer surface temperatures and repeated thermal cycling between day and night dry out asphalt-based felt and crack pipe boots and valley metal long before the roofing material itself looks worn. A sound-looking tile roof can still be leaking, since the tile is doing its job while the layer beneath it has already failed.
Many Phoenix communities carry HOA design guidelines that dictate roof color, tile profile or a required visual match to neighboring rooflines, and some limit which systems are allowed on visible slopes at all. We review those design rules before ordering material, so a replacement passes architectural review the first time instead of getting flagged after tear-off has already started.

Tycho Solutions holds Arizona ROC #364735, fully licensed, bonded and insured for roofing work throughout Phoenix.
We spec roofing systems rated for Phoenix’s UV exposure and monsoon wind, not just whatever meets minimum code.
Every replacement goes back to the deck, new underlayment, flashing and roofing material, not a patch over old problems.
We schedule around Phoenix’s building department timelines and monsoon season, so your roof gets finished when we say it will.
It depends on the roof’s slope and the home’s build era. Pitched roofs in older subdivisions are usually tile or architectural shingle, while low-slope sections on ranch homes and additions call for spray foam. Standing seam metal works well on steep custom rooflines because it sheds heat instead of absorbing it. We look at your existing structure and HOA rules before recommending a system, rather than defaulting to one material for every job.
Cost depends on roof size, pitch, tear-off complexity and the system you choose, tile, foam, metal or shingle all price differently, so there is no single honest number to quote without seeing the roof. What we can tell you upfront is that a proper replacement includes full tear-off to the deck, new underlayment and flashing, not just a surface swap. We provide a written estimate after an on-site inspection, before any work starts.
We focus on full-system replacement rather than minor patch repairs. On an older tile or shingle roof, a small repair to one section usually buys a season at most, because the surrounding underlayment is aging at the same rate and will fail next. If your roof is leaking, we will inspect the whole system and tell you honestly whether a targeted fix or a full replacement is the right long-term call.
Yes. Many Phoenix homes and commercial buildings have low-slope or flat sections that were built with built-up roofing or an aging foam system, and those fail differently than a pitched roof, usually through ponding water and worn-out coating rather than a cracked tile. We remove the existing membrane down to the deck and install a new spray foam system with fresh drainage and coating, built for positive slope instead of flat ponding areas.
Yes, we handle commercial roofing installation and full replacement for buildings across Phoenix, including TPO, PVC and built-up systems on low-slope commercial roofs alongside our residential work. We coordinate around business hours and tenant schedules, and every commercial project is bonded and insured under our Arizona contractor’s license.
Yes. Tycho Solutions holds Arizona ROC #364735 and we pull the required roofing permits for every replacement and new construction project in the city of Phoenix. That covers plan review where applicable, inspection scheduling and final sign-off, so you are not the one dealing with the permitting office if a question comes up mid-project.
