Frequently Asked Questions
Signs that your roof may need repairs include visible leaks or water damage in your attic or ceilings, missing, cracked, or curling shingles, damaged flashing, sagging areas on the roof, and visible light through the roof in your attic. Regular inspections can help identify potential issues early.
Yes, timely and properly executed repairs can extend the life of your roof by addressing issues before they lead to more significant damage. Regular maintenance and repairs as needed can help ensure your roof reaches or even exceeds its expected lifespan, saving you money and hassle in the long run.
While minor repairs like replacing a few shingles can sometimes be done by a handy homeowner, most roof repairs should be handled by a professional. Roofing can be dangerous work, and a professional can ensure the repair is done correctly, using the right materials and methods to extend the lifespan of your roof.
A roof may need replacement instead of repair if it’s nearing or has surpassed its expected lifespan (typically 20-30 years for asphalt shingles), if there are widespread signs of damage such as major leaks, numerous missing or damaged shingles, widespread granule loss, or if repairs are becoming increasingly frequent and costly. A professional inspection can help determine whether repair or replacement is the best option.

The time frame for replacing a roof can vary from a day, a few days to a week or more, depending on the size of the roof, the type of roofing material being installed, and the weather conditions. Some materials and more complex installations may take longer. We can provide a more accurate timeline based on the specifics of your project.
The duration of roof repair can range from a few hours to several days, depending on the extent of the damage and the complexity of the repair. Simple repairs, like replacing a handful of shingles, can be completed relatively quickly, while more extensive repairs, such as fixing structural damage, will take longer.
The choice of roofing material depends on several factors including your budget, the climate in your area, the style of your home, and personal preferences. Asphalt shingles are the most popular due to their cost-effectiveness and versatility, but materials like metal, tile, slate, and wood shingles offer different aesthetics, lifespans, and price points. We can help you choose the best material based on your needs and objectives.
