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 outline the average price range for replacing a roof on a 1,500 square foot home in Oatfield. We also highlight price differences between common roof materials.
Installing a new roof is a major home renovation that may cost over ten thousand dollars total. 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 hiring a roofer.
While the average homeowner may not spend a lot of time thinking about their roof, a roof plays a vital 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 popular residential roofing material, typically last about 20 to 25 years before needing replacement. If your roof is nearing or past this lifespan, get a professional inspection to determine if full replacement is needed.
One of the most obvious signs of a roof issue is leaking. Stains on insulation, walls, and ceilings — or in your attic — usually indicate that water is seeping through deteriorating shingles. Don't ignore small leaks, because even these can encourage mold growth and roof damage.
Seeing roof deck boards or sheathing under your shingles indicates 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.
Check 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 shingles that detach or are openly gaping.
Roof flashing protects chimneys, vents, valleys, and other areas that penetrate your roofing system. If the metal flashing is damaged, coming loose, or deteriorated, it can leak. Have any issues with roof flashing fixed right away.
If your roof shows signs of sagging or unevenness, get a roofer to evaluate it. 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 Oatfield 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.
Roofing contractors in Oregon must be licensed by the Oregon Construction Contractors Board. To obtain this license, contractors need to be bonded and insured.
Generally, the fall or the spring is the best time of year to have your roof replaced. Winter may not be the ideal time to have work done on your roof in Oatfield, as cold weather can delay work or simply be unpleasant.
Your roof can impact the energy efficiency of your home. For example, a good roof helps you spend less energy heating your home during the winter months. Some materials (like metal) are more energy-efficient than others.
The extent of the cleaning needed, as well as the material of your roof, will determine 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" uses tools like brooms and brushes, plus chemicals like detergent and bleach.
