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 big as roof replacement, cost matters. Below is the typical price range to replace a roof on a 1,500 square foot home in Englewood. We also compare prices for popular roofing materials.
A new roof installation is a major home renovation that can cost over twenty thousand dollars total. It's essential to research and find a highly reviewed and recommended roofing company for the job. Here are some important considerations for choosing a roofer.
Though most homeowners don't think about their roof every single day, a roof plays an important role in keeping a home safe and secure. Keep alert for these signs that your roof might need professional attention.
Your roof's age and material are key factors. Asphalt shingles, the most popular residential roofing material, generally last about 20 to 25 years before needing to be replaced. Have your roof evaluated if it’s approaching or past this lifespan to determine if it needs to be replaced.
Leaks are a typical sign of roof issues. Water leaking through damaged or worn shingles often leads to water stains on walls, ceilings, and insulation, or in your attic. Don't dismiss even small leaks, as leaks of any size can cause mold and other damage.
If you can see roof sheathing or decking under shingles, it means that those shingles are curling or losing their seal. This means it's time for replacement. Shingles should lie flat to prevent water from leaking into your home.
Examine your shingles closely from a safe 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 makes a watertight seal around vents, valleys, chimneys, and other areas where water can leak into your home. Deteriorated, cracked, or peeling flashing can allow leaks. We recommend quickly addressing any flashing issues that come up.
If your roof shows signs of sagging or unevenness, get a roofer to evaluate it. These issues could signal a structural problem. A sagging roof that's not reinforced or replaced will continue worsening over time.
The best type of roofing material for your home in Englewood will depend on factors such as your budget and how often you're willing to do maintenance.
Metal is more expensive 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.
Ohio does not require roofing contractors to be licensed by the state (this requirement is only for electrical, plumbing, HVAC, hydronics and refrigeration contractors); however, there may be municipal requirements. You can verify that a roofer in Ohio holds an active business license at this site.
Roof cleaning costs around $450 in Englewood. The exact price will depend on the size of your roof, its material, how many levels it has, and how thorough the cleaning will need to be.
Your roof does impact how energy-efficient your home is. For example, in the winter a good roof allows you to spend less energy heating your home. Certain roofing materials, like metal, provide better insulation than 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 might be easier to get some costs covered if the damage is due to a covered weather event such as a hail storm. You should talk to your home insurance company to find out if either of these situations apply to you.
