In my younger days - did my own roof (s). Asphalt shingle 3 tab. No magic to it.
If I was to do it again. I'd hire a metal roof company. Or if asphalt shingles - architectural shingles.
If replacing an existing roof - strip off old shingles - use ice and water shield (bituthene) on entire roof. And replace all plumbing roof vents with new - as the rubber deteriorates over time. And the roof itself needs ventilation.

Finding any contractor today is a challenge. Finding a good one is even more challenging. Best to read up on what a good roof replacement requires.

Dedicated roofing companies have reputations. Sometimes good. Sometimes not so good.
