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, cost matters. Below is the usual price range to replace a roof on a 1,500 square foot home in Los Lunas. We also compare costs for common roofing materials.
A new roof installation is a large home renovation that can cost over twenty thousand dollars total. It's crucial to research and find the most qualified and reputable roofing company for the job. Here are some important considerations for selecting a roofer.
Though most homeowners don't think about their roof every day, it plays a vital protective role for your home. Keep watch for these common signs that your roof may need inspection and repairs from a professional roofer.
Your roof's age and material are key factors. The most popular residential roofing material is asphalt shingles, which normally last around 20–25 years before requiring replacement. Have your roof evaluated if it’s approaching this age to determine if a full replacement is needed.
One of the most obvious signs of a roof problem is leaking. Stains on walls, insulation, and ceilings — or in your attic — usually indicate that water is seeping through worn or damaged shingles. Don't ignore small leaks, because even these can lead to mold growth and roof damage.
Visible roof decking or sheathing under your shingles is a sign that those shingles are severely curling or losing their seal. This means it's time for replacement. Shingles need to lie flat to stop water from leaking into your home.
Examine your shingles thoroughly from ground level or a safe 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 condition, replace any missing shingles or ones that are openly gaping.
Roof flashing creates a watertight seal around vents, valleys, chimneys, 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.
A structural problem can lead to roof sagging or uneven slopes. If you notice sagging or an uneven slope, schedule a professional inspection. An improperly supported roof deck will only get worse without proper support.
The best type of roofing material for your home in Los Lunas will depend on things like your budget and how frequently you want to do maintenance.
Metal costs more but lasts longer, while asphalt will be cheaper up front but will require more maintenance. In Los Lunas, 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 Los Lunas' bright sunlight and save you money on cooling costs.
In New Mexico, roofing contractors must be licensed by the Construction Industries Division of the state Regulation and Licensing Department. Contractors can also obtain membership in the New Mexico Roofing Contractors Association (NMRCA), although this is not mandatory. The NMRCA works to enforce high standards for roofers, and to connect contractors with peers, governmental agencies and the public.
Generally, spring or autumn is the best time of year to have your roof replaced. In the summer, Los Lunas' hot temperatures can slow down the project.
Your roof can absolutely impact the energy efficiency of your home. For example, a good roof allows you to use less energy to cool your home during the summer. Some materials (like metal) are more energy-efficient than others. In Los Lunas, you can reduce your carbon footprint even more by installing solar panels on your roof.
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" is done with tools like brooms and brushes, and employs chemicals like bleach and detergent.
You'll know your roofer did a good job if the roof is uniform in appearance, the roofline is not sagging, and the underlayment and flashing were properly installed.
