First Time Roof Replacement?

Should I Repair My Roof or Replace It?

This is one of the top questions that homeowners have, and for good reason! The choice to repair or replace is a big one with significant financial implications, and there’s not necessarily a right or wrong answer that will apply to every situation.

Most often, the choice of repair vs. replace comes down to cost—not only for the immediate roofing service but over the total lifespan of the roof. While minor roof damage can often be addressed by a repair or a partial reroof, it may not be financially advantageous to do so. To make the best investment, you’ll want to consider the following points:

  • Is your roof nearing its expected lifetime?
  • How much damage is there?
  • Is future damage likely, either due to roof age or local climate?
  • Is your roof leaking? If so, is the cause known?
  • How energy efficient is your current roof?
  • Are you planning to sell your home? If so, would your current roof be a selling point or a problem?
  • Is your roof currently under warranty?

To find out whether your roof is a good candidate for repairs, please contact us for a free roof inspection.

How Long Does a Roof Last?

Assuming that the roof was properly installed, the expected lifespan most often comes down to the roofing material. According to the International Association of Certified Home Inspectors (InterNACHI), the following timeframes are reasonable estimates for common residential roofing systems:

  • 3-Tab Asphalt Shingles: 20 years
  • Architectural Asphalt: 30 years
  • Clay or Concrete Tile: 100+ years
  • Fiber Cement: 25 years
  • Metal: 40 – 80 years
  • Slate: 60 – 150 years
  • Wood: 25 years

If your roof is located in an extreme weather area (such as coastal hurricane zones), the expected lifespan will likely be lower than average. For more detailed insights on your roof condition, reach out to our expert contractors.

How Much Does a Roof Replacement Cost?

According to industry surveys, the average roof replacement cost ranges from around $5,500 to $15,000 dollars. Of course, this is a very wide range, and it’s impacted by many different factors specific to each property:

  • Geographic location
  • Local housing market
  • Size of home
  • Square footage of roof
  • Roof pitch or slope
  • Roofing material, both old and new
  • Roof accessibility
  • Any custom roof features, like skylights or dormers
  • Old roof removal costs, if any

What Is Included in a Roof Replacement?

A complete roof replacement includes, well, everything! Unlike re-roofing (which involves laying new roofing over an existing roof), a roof replacement calls for tearing off the old roof completely—essentially starting fresh.

The exact products will vary based on your contractor and your home’s condition, but nearly all roof replacement projects will include these key components:

  • Decking*
  • Flashing*
  • Underlayment
  • Drip edge
  • Shingles
  • Soffits and fascia
  • Ridge caps
  • Roof vents
  • Pipe boots

*If needed based on current condition

What Does Our Roof Replacement Process Look Like?

Once you’ve hired a roofing contractor, the process for a roof replacement is straightforward. It usually includes the following steps:

1. Select the roofing details (material, color, shingle profile, etc.).

2. Schedule the roof installation.

3. Prepare for installation according to your contractors’ instructions—such as receiving a dumpster for trash disposal, moving vehicles, protecting flowers and landscaping, safeguarding pets, etc.

4. Relax while the roofers to complete the installation.

5. Go on a final walk-through of the roof replacement to ensure all work was done according to the contract.

6. Allow the roofers to sweep the yard for nails and take other steps to clean and remove hazards.
