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 replacing your roof. Below, we provide the average price range for replacing a roof on a 1,500 square foot home in Mercerville. We also outline price differences between common roof materials.
A new roof installation is a large home renovation that can run tens of thousands of dollars. It's essential to research and find a highly reviewed and recommended roofing company for the job. Here are the top things to evaluate when selecting a roofer.
While most homeowners don't think about their roof every day, it plays a key role in protecting your home. Be attentive to these common signs that your roof may be in need of professional inspection and repair.
The age and material of your roof play a big role. Asphalt shingles, the most popular roofing material for homes, usually last about around 20–25 years. If your roof is nearing or past this lifespan, get it inspected to see if it needs to be replaced.
One of the most obvious signs of a roof issue is leaking. Stains on ceilings, insulation, and walls — or in your attic — usually indicate that water is seeping through deteriorating shingles. Don't ignore small leaks, because even these can encourage mold growth and roof deterioration.
If you can see your roof deck boards underneath your shingles, it means those shingles are severely curling or losing their seal and need replacement. Shingles should lie flat to keep water from entering your home.
Examine your shingles thoroughly from ground level or a steady ladder. Look for ones that have cracks or that are missing granules. Over time, storms can cause surface damage. To keep your roof in good shape, replace any missing shingles or ones that are openly gaping.
Roof flashing makes a watertight seal around vents, valleys, chimneys, and other areas where water can penetrate your roof. Cracked, peeling or deteriorated flashing can allow leaks. We recommend quickly addressing any problems with the roof flashing that come up.
An uneven roofline may be a sign of a structural issue that requires professional attention. Without properly addressing and resolving the issue, a sagging roof will get worse over time.
The best type of roofing material for your home in Mercerville will be determined by a number of factors, including your budget and how often you want to do maintenance.
Asphalt is more budget-friendly, while options like metal are more expensive but last longer. You also might choose a material like wood for its environmentally friendly nature.
While New Jersey doesn't require roofing contractors to be licensed at the state level, all contractors working in the state must be registered with the Division of Consumer Affairs. Also be sure to verify that your roofing contractor meets any local licensing requirements.
Generally, it takes between one and five days to replace a roof. Factors that could influence the timeline include the size of your roof, how easily accessible it is, and what the weather is like in Mercerville during the process. Mercerville tends to see a lot of rain, which might extend the timeline.
Generally, spring or autumn is the best time of year to have your roof replaced. Having work done in the summer or winter runs the risk of hot or cold weather getting in the way.
Depending on which contractor you use, some roof replacement costs may be covered by your home insurance. Some insurance companies might have preferred contractors. It may also be easier to have costs covered if the damage was caused by a covered weather event, such as a severe windstorm. Reach out to your home insurance company to find out if they have preferred contractors, and what costs may be covered.
A professional might either pressure wash or "soft wash" your roof, depending on the material and how much cleaning is needed. Power washing is not recommended for certain roof types like asphalt shingles. To soft wash your roof, your contractor may use chemicals like bleach and detergent, and tools such as brooms and brushes.
