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 tackling a project as big as roof replacement. Below, we provide the average price range for replacing a roof on a 1,500 square foot home in Choctaw. We also highlight price differences between common roof materials.
Roof installation is a large home improvement project that can cost upwards of twenty thousand dollars out of pocket. It’s essential to do your research and find the best company for the job. Here are some important considerations for selecting a roofer.
While the average homeowner may not spend a lot of time thinking about their roof, 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. The most popular residential roofing material is asphalt shingles, which generally last 20–25 years before requiring replacement. Have your roof evaluated if it’s approaching this age to determine if it needs to be replaced.
One of the most obvious signs of roof trouble is water leaks. Stains on your insulation, walls, or ceilings, or in your attic likely indicate water seeping through damaged or worn shingles. Even small leaks should be fixed promptly, as they can cause mold growth and further damage to your roof.
If you can see roof sheathing or decking under shingles, it shows that those shingles are considerably curling or losing their seal. This means the shingles likely need replacement. Shingles should lie flat to prevent water from getting into your home.
Inspect your roof shingles from the ground or a steady ladder. Look for signs of damage or missing granules. Storms that bring strong winds can cause surface damage over time. To maintain your roof, replace any shingles that are no longer securely attached or are openly gaping.
Roof flashing makes a watertight seal around vents, chimneys, valleys, and other areas where water can penetrate your roof. Peeling, cracked, or deteriorated flashing can allow leaks. We recommend promptly resolving any flashing issues 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 continue deteriorating.
The best type of roofing material for your home in Choctaw will depend on factors such as your budget and how frequently you're willing to do maintenance.
Metal costs more but lasts longer, while asphalt will be cheaper up front but will require more maintenance. In Choctaw, 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 Choctaw's bright sunlight and save you money on cooling costs.
Oklahoma roofing contractors must be registered with the Oklahoma Construction Industries Board. To register, contractors must show proof of general liability and workers' compensation insurance.
Roof cleaning typically costs about $428 in Choctaw. The exact price will depend on the square footage of your roof, how many levels it has, its material, and how severe the problem is.
Your roof does impact the energy efficiency of your home. For example, in the summer a good roof helps you cool your home more efficiently. Certain roofing materials, like metal, provide better insulation than other types. Another way to improve energy efficiency, and potentially a great use of roof space in Choctaw, is installing solar panels.
Depending on which contractor you use, your home insurance may cover some roof replacement costs. Some insurance companies may have preferred contractors. It might also be easier to get assistance for roof work if the damage was caused by a covered weather event, such as an ice storm. Reach out to your home insurance company to find out if they have preferred contractors, and what costs may be covered.
A professional will either pressure wash or "soft wash" your roof, depending on the roofing material and how much cleaning is needed. Power washing is not recommended for certain roof types, such as asphalt shingles. When soft washing your roof, your contractor may use tools such as brooms and brushes, and chemicals such as detergent and bleach.
