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:
For a project as substantial as roof replacement, price is important. Below is the usual price range to replace a roof on a 1,500 square foot home in Bruno. We also compare prices for common roofing materials.
Installing a new roof is a large home improvement project that can cost an amount in the tens of thousands range when all is said and done. It's crucial to research and find a top quality and trusted local roofing contractor for the job. Here are some key considerations when choosing a roofing contractor.
Though most homeowners don't think about their roof every single day, a roof plays a vital role in keeping a home safe and secure. Watch for these signs that your roof might need professional attention.
Your roof's age and material are both important. The most popular residential roofing material is asphalt shingles, which generally last 20–25 years before needing to be replaced. Have your roof evaluated if it’s reaching this age to determine if a full replacement is needed.
One of the most obvious signs of roof trouble is water leaks. Stains on your walls, insulation, or ceilings, or in your attic likely indicate water seeping through damaged or worn shingles. Even small leaks should not be ignored, as they can cause mold growth and further damage to your roof.
If you can see roof decking or sheathing visible under your shingles, it means those shingles are curling substantially or losing their seal, and replacement is required. Shingles should lie flat to keep water from leaking into your house.
Check your roof shingles from the ground or a steady ladder. Look for cracking or missing granules. Storms that bring strong winds can cause surface damage over time. To maintain your roof, replace any shingles that have come loose or have open gaps.
Roof flashing provides a watertight seal around chimneys, vents, valleys, and other areas where water can penetrate your roof. Deteriorated, cracked, or peeling flashing can allow leaks. We recommend quickly addressing any flashing issues that come up.
If you notice your roofline showing signs of sagging or unevenness, it could indicate a problem with the structure that requires further inspection by a roofer. A sagging roof deck will worsen over time if not given proper reinforcement or replaced entirely.
The best type of roofing material for your home in Bruno will depend on a number of factors, including your budget and how often you're willing to do maintenance.
Asphalt is more budget-friendly, while options like metal cost more but last longer. You also might choose a material like wood for its environmentally friendly nature.
All roofing contractors in Kansas must have a roofing contractor registration certificate issued by the state Attorney General. Contractors are required to provide proof of adequate liability and workers' compensation insurance. You can check a roofing contractor's registration here.
The best time of year to have your roof replaced is spring or fall. If you start your roofing job in the summer, warm weather in Bruno can slow down work.
Your roof does impact the energy efficiency of your home. For example, in the summer a good roof helps you cool your home more efficiently. Certain materials, like metal, provide better insulation than other types.
Generally, your roof needs to be cleaned about once a year. Consider an extra cleaning if you notice buildup of mildew, leaves, moss, or mold.
How soiled your roof is, in addition to what it's made of, will decide how your contractor cleans it. Some roofs benefit from power washing, but this is not recommended for materials like asphalt tiles. "Soft washing" uses tools like brooms and brushes, plus chemicals like detergent and bleach.
