When do I need a new roof?
A new roof may be necessary if your current one is over 20 years old, as asphalt shingles typically last 20-25 years. Other indicators include curled, cracked, or missing shingles, interior water stains or leaks, and granules accumulating in gutters. Substantial storm damage can also compromise your roof's integrity, potentially requiring full replacement.What type of Roofing should I get?
The ideal roofing material depends on your specific needs, including budget, home design, and local climate. Asphalt shingles are a popular, cost-effective option known for their durability. Metal roofing offers longevity and energy efficiency, making it suitable for harsh weather. Tile or slate provide a premium aesthetic and exceptional durability, though they're heavier and more costly. Synthetic materials offer lightweight alternatives that mimic natural materials. Our experts can guide you in selecting the most appropriate option for your home.How long does it take to replace a roof?
Typically, residential roof replacements are completed within one to three days. The exact duration varies based on several factors, including your roof's size and complexity, weather conditions during installation, and the availability of required materials.How do I prepare my roof for installation?
To prepare for roof installation, ensure your driveway and yard are clear to accommodate equipment and materials. Inside your home, remove delicate items from walls and shelves to prevent damage from potential vibrations. It's advisable to cover items in your attic to protect them from dust. Additionally, consider informing your neighbors about the upcoming work schedule.Do I need a new roof or simply a repair?
The decision between repair and replacement depends on the extent of damage. If issues are limited to a small area, such as a few missing shingles or a minor leak, a repair may suffice. However, if your roof is approaching the end of its lifespan or has widespread problems, a complete replacement is often more economical in the long run. We offer comprehensive inspections and provide unbiased recommendations to help you make an informed decision.
