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 Fairfield. We also compare prices for common roofing materials.
Installing a new roof is a big home renovation that can cost over ten thousand dollars total when finished. It's crucial to research in depth to find the most qualified and trustworthy roofing company for the job. Here are some key factors to consider when 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.
The age and material of your roof are key factors. Asphalt shingles, the most common residential roofing material, typically last around 20–25 years before needing to be replaced. If your roof is approaching or past this lifespan, get a professional inspection to determine if 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 are often a sign of water seeping through worn or damaged shingles. Even small leaks should not be ignored, as they can lead to mold growth and further deteriorate your roof.
If you can see your roof deck boards underneath your shingles, it means those shingles are severely curling or losing their seal and need to be replaced. Shingles should lie flat to prevent water from getting into your home.
Inspect your shingles thoroughly from ground level or a safe ladder. Look for ones that are cracked or that are missing granules. Over time, storms can cause surface damage. To keep your roof in good shape, replace any shingles that are no longer attached properly or have gaping holes.
Roof flashing makes a watertight seal around chimneys, valleys, vents, and other areas where water can leak into your home. 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 mean there's a structural issue that requires professional evaluation. Without taking steps to fix or replace it, a sagging roof will worsen over time.
The best type of roofing material for your home in Fairfield will be decided by a number of factors, including your budget and how often you want to do maintenance.
Asphalt is less costly, while options like metal are more expensive but last longer. You also might choose a material like wood for its environmentally friendly nature.
Roofing contractors in Ohio are not required to be licensed by the state (this is only necessary for electrical, plumbing, refrigeration, hydronics and HVAC contractors); however, there may be local requirements. You can verify that a roofer in Ohio holds an active business license at this site.
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 can absolutely impact how energy-efficient your home is. For example, a good roof allows you to use less energy to cool your home during the summer. Certain materials (such as metal) are more energy-efficient than others.
The best color for your roof depends on several factors like the style and color of your house and the local climate. For example, if you have a Spanish style home, then you'll most likely want a terracotta roof. Also, those in a hot climate may want to avoid darker colors because they absorb heat, which makes your home harder to keep cool.
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 might also be easier to have costs covered if the damage was caused by a covered weather event, such as a tornado. Reach out to your home insurance company to learn whether they have any preferred contractors, and what costs are covered.
