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:
The type of roofing material that's best in El Paso will depend on things like your budget and how frequently you want to do maintenance.
Slate costs more but is more durable, while asphalt will be cheaper up front but will require more maintenance. In El Paso, 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 El Paso's bright sunlight and save you money on cooling costs.
In Texas, roofing contractors are not required to hold a state-level license. However, municipalities may enforce local requirements. Roofers in Texas also have the option to join the Roofing Contractors Association of Texas, which provides continuing education, public outreach, consultation and research for roofing and waterproofing contractors.
Generally, spring or fall is the best time of year to have your roof replaced. In the summer, El Paso's hot temperatures can slow down the project.
Your roof can 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. In El Paso, you can reduce your carbon footprint even more by installing solar panels on your roof.
After your roof installation, check the roof's appearance. If it looks uneven and not uniform, this is a sign that the roof was not installed properly. Also, check that the flashing wasn't reused. Properly installed flashing is important to keep leaks and water damage at bay. Lastly, you'll want to see that an underlayment was placed between the shingles and sheathing of your house, which also helps prevent leaks and extends your roof's lifespan.
A professional might either pressure wash or "soft wash" your roof, depending on the material and the extent of the cleaning needed. Power washing is not recommended for certain roof types like asphalt shingles. To soft wash your roof, your contractor might use chemicals like bleach and detergent, and tools such as brushes and brooms.
