Today's Homeowner looks at dozens of datapoints on roofers to come up with our data-driven rankings. It's not possible for a company to pay for preferential treatment in our rankings. We look at the following key factors in determining who should top our list:
Price is a major consideration when replacing your roof. Below is the average price range to replace a roof on a 1,500 square foot home in Rosamond. We also compare prices for common roofing materials.
Roof installation is a large home improvement project that can cost tens of thousands of dollars. It’s crucial to do your research and find the most qualified company for the job. Here are some important considerations for choosing a roofer.
Though most homeowners don't think about their roof on a daily basis, it plays a vital protective role for your home. Remain alert for these common signs that your roof may need professional inspection and repair.
Your roof's age and material are both important. The most popular residential roofing material is asphalt shingles, which generally last about 20 to 25 years before requiring replacement. Have your roof evaluated if it’s reaching this age to determine if a full replacement is needed.
Leaks are a clear sign that your roof requires repairs. Stains on walls, ceilings, or insulation, or in your attic often mean that water is getting through damaged or worn shingles. Even minor leaks need to be taken care of right away, as they can cause mold and more harm over time.
If you can see roof decking or sheathing visible under your shingles, it means those shingles are curling substantially or losing their seal and need to be replaced. Shingles should lie flat to keep water from getting into your house.
Carefully examine your shingles from the ground or a steady ladder. Look for any shingles that have cracks or have lost their protective granule coating. Over time, environmental factors like storms can cause surface damage. To keep your roof in good repair, we recommend replacing any shingles that are no longer attached properly or that have gaps.
Roof flashing provides a weatherproof seal around valleys, vents, chimneys, and other areas that penetrate your roof. If this metal flashing is coming loose, cracked open, or worn down, it can allow leaks. Any issues with flashing should be addressed promptly.
If your roof sags or is uneven, get a roofer to evaluate it. These issues could signal a structural problem. A sagging roof that's not properly supported or fixed will worsen over time.
The best type of roofing material for your home in Rosamond will depend on things like your budget and how often you want to do maintenance.
Metal costs more but is more durable, while asphalt will be cheaper up front but will require more maintenance. Metal, clay, and treated wood tend to be the best options if your part of Rosamond is at higher risk of wildfire damage. In Rosamond, winters can be cold. This can make a wood roof, with its superior insulation, a better choice for you. On the other hand, clay roofs can be beneficial during the summer, as they reflect Rosamond's bright sunlight and save you money on cooling costs.
In California, licensing is handled by the Department of Consumer Affairs Contractors State License Board. Contractors must have a valid license to work on roofing projects valued over $500, and in most cases must be bonded.
The best time of year to have your roof replaced is spring or fall. In the summer, Rosamond's hot temperatures can impede progress.
Your roof can impact how energy-efficient your home is. For example, a good roof allows you to use less energy to cool your home during the summer. Certain materials (such as metal) are more energy-efficient than others. In Rosamond, you can reduce your carbon footprint even more by installing solar panels on your roof.
The best roofing color for you depends on several factors like the style and color of your house and the local climate. For example, if you have a Spanish style home, then you'll probably want a terracotta roof to match the style. Also, if you live in a hot climate, you (like Rosamond) may want to avoid darker colors because they absorb heat, which makes your home harder to keep cool.
