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:
The type of roofing material that's best in Vista will depend on factors such as your budget and how frequently you want to do maintenance.
Slate costs more but is more durable, while asphalt will be cheaper up front but won't last as long. Metal, clay, and treated wood tend to be the best options if your part of Vista is at higher risk of wildfire damage. In Vista, 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 Vista'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 an active license to work on roofing projects valued over $500, and in most cases must be bonded.
The typical lifespan of a roof is 15 to 30 years. If your roof is somewhere in this range (particularly on the higher end), it may be worth having an inspection. Your roof may also need replacing if it suffers frequent or significant damage, for example from severe weather or downed trees. In Vista, your roof is less likely to be damaged by a weather event, and might need to be replaced less often.
The best time of year to have your roof replaced is spring or fall. In the summer, Vista's hot temperatures can impede progress.
Signs that your roof needs to be replaced include the following:
You can determine which service your roof needs by looking at the type and extent of the problem.
Generally, roof cleaning provides a fast and inexpensive fix for issues that don't impact the structural integrity of your roof (such as mold and moss buildup). Roof repair is for larger issues, such as missing shingles, leaks, or small sections of damage. Roof replacement is required when the issues are extensive, when they impact the structural integrity of your roof or when your roof has reached the end of its natural lifespan (typically a few decades).
Your local roofing contractor can perform an inspection of your roof and help you decide which service is right for you.
