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:
Cost planning is important when you need to tackle a project as big as roof replacement. Below, we provide the average price range for replacing a roof on a 1,500 square foot home in North Haven. We also highlight price differences between common roof materials.
Installing a new roof is a large home improvement project that can cost tens of thousands of dollars. It’s essential to do your research and find the most qualified company for the job. Here are some important considerations for selecting a roofer.
Though it likely doesn't cross homeowners' minds daily, your roof plays a key role in protecting your home. Watch for these common signs that your roof may need an inspection and repairs from a professional roofer.
The age and material of your roof play a big role. Asphalt shingles, the most common roofing material for homes, usually last about 20 to 25 years. If your roof is approaching or past this lifespan, schedule an inspection to see if complete replacement is necessary.
One of the clearest signs of a roof issue is leaking. Stains on insulation, ceilings, and walls — or in your attic — usually mean that water is seeping through worn or damaged shingles. Don't ignore small leaks, because even these can encourage mold growth and roof deterioration.
If you can see roof decking or sheathing beneath your shingles, it means those shingles are severely curling or losing their seal, and replacement is required. Shingles should lie flat to keep water from entering your home.
Examine your shingles closely from a steady ladder or while on the ground. Look for shingles that show cracks or no longer have their protective granule layer. Storms can cause roof damage over time. To keep your roof in good shape, replace any missing shingles, or ones that are openly gaping.
Metal flashing on your roof seals off valleys, chimneys, vents, and other areas where water can leak in. If the flashing is developing cracks, peeling away, or deteriorating over time, it may leak. Promptly take care of any flashing issues.
A structural problem can lead to noticeable roof sagging or unevenness. If you notice unevenness, get a roofing company to inspect it. A roof deck that isn't reinforced will only get worse without proper support.
The best type of roofing material for your home in North Haven will depend on things like your budget and how often you're willing to do maintenance.
Metal costs more but is more durable, while asphalt will be cheaper up front but won't last as long. Wood roofs have better insulation than many other materials, which can be very beneficial in the winter.
Roofers who work under a general home improvement contractor must be registered with the Connecticut Department of Consumer Protection. Roofing contractors who do not work under a general contractor do not need a specific state license. You can also verify a general business license through the Department of Consumer Protection.
Generally, the fall or the spring is the best time of year to have your roof replaced. Winter may not be the ideal time to have work done on your roof in North Haven, as cold weather can delay work or simply be unpleasant.
Your roof can impact how energy-efficient your home is. For example, a good roof helps you spend less energy heating your home during the winter months. Some materials (like metal) are more energy-efficient than others.
The extent of the cleaning needed, as well as the material of your roof, will decide how your contractor cleans it. Power washing can be used on some roofs, but it isn't recommended for materials like asphalt tiles. "Soft washing" uses tools like brooms and brushes, plus chemicals like bleach and detergent.
The signs that a roofer did a good job are: the roof has a uniform appearance, the roof is not sagging, and the flashing and underlayment were properly installed.
