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 is an important consideration when replacing your roof. Below you'll find the typical price range to replace a roof on a 1,500 square foot home in New Brunswick. We also compare prices for popular roofing materials.
Installing a new roof is a major home improvement project that can cost a significant amount. It’s essential to do your research and find the most qualified company for the job. Here are the key factors to consider when selecting a roofer.
You may not think about your roof daily, but it plays a vital role protecting your home. Look out for these common signals that your roof needs to be evaluated and repaired by a professional roofer.
The age and material of your roof are important. Asphalt shingles, the most popular roofing material for homes, typically last about 20–25 years. If your roof is nearing or past this lifespan, get it inspected to see if it needs to be replaced.
Leaks are a typical sign of roof issues. Water leaking through worn or damage shingles often leads to water stains on insulation, walls, and ceilings, or in your attic. Don't dismiss even small leaks, as they can still lead to mold and other issues.
Seeing roof deck boards or sheathing under your shingles is a sign that those shingles are severely curling or losing their seal. This means the shingles likely need replacement. Shingles should lie flat to stop water from getting into your home.
Inspect your shingles closely from a sturdy ladder or while on the ground. Look for shingles that have cracked or are missing granules. Storms can cause exterior damage over time. To keep your roof in working order, replace any missing shingles, or ones that have gaping holes.
Roof flashing creates a watertight seal around chimneys, vents, valleys, and other areas where water can penetrate your roof. Peeling, cracked, or deteriorated flashing can allow leaks. We recommend quickly addressing any flashing issues that come up.
If your roof sags or is uneven, schedule a professional inspection. These issues could indicate 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 New Brunswick will depend on things like your budget and how often you want to do maintenance.
Metal costs more but lasts longer, 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.
New Jersey does not require roofing contractors to obtain a state-level license, but all contractors working in the state are required to be registered with the Division of Consumer Affairs. You should also verify that your roofing contractor meets any local licensing requirements.
Generally, spring or fall 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.
Your roof does impact the energy efficiency of your home. For example, in the winter a good roof allows you to spend less energy heating your home. Certain materials, such as metal, provide superior insulation compared to other types.
Your home insurance may cover some roof replacement costs if you use one of your insurance company's preferred contractors (if it has any). It may be easier to get replacement or repair costs covered if the damage is due to a covered weather event such as a severe windstorm. You should reach out to your home insurance company to find out if either of these situations apply to you.
