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 is an important consideration when replacing a major piece of your home like your roof. Below, see the average price range for roof replacement on a 1,500 square foot home in Bountiful, as well as price differences between various popular roofing materials.
Installing a new roof is a major home renovation that may cost over ten thousand dollars total when finished. It's essential to research in depth to find the best credentialed and most respected roofing company for the job. Here are the main things to consider when choosing a roofer.
Though most homeowners don't think about their roof every single day, 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 important. Asphalt shingles, the most common roofing material for homes, normally last about 20 to 25 years. If your roof is nearing or past this lifespan, get it inspected to see if complete replacement is necessary.
One of the clearest signs of a roof problem is leaking. Stains on walls, ceilings, and insulation — or in your attic — usually indicate that water is seeping through damaged or worn shingles. Don't ignore small leaks, because even these can lead to mold growth and roof damage.
Visible roof decking or sheathing under your shingles indicates that those shingles are severely curling or losing their seal. This means it's time for replacement. Shingles should lie flat to stop water from entering your home.
Carefully examine your shingles from the ground or a safely-placed ladder. Look for any shingles that are cracked or are missing granules. Over time, environmental factors like storms can cause surface damage. To keep your roof in good shape, we recommend replacing any dislodged or gaping shingles.
Roof flashing makes a watertight seal around valleys, vents, 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.
A structural problem can cause your roof to display sagging or uneven slopes. If you notice sagging or an uneven slope, get a roofing company to inspect it. An unsupported roof deck will only get worse without proper support.
The best type of roofing material for your home in Bountiful will depend on factors such as your budget and how frequently you want to do maintenance.
Metal costs more 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. On the other hand, clay roofs can be beneficial during the summer, as they reflect Bountiful's bright sunlight and save you money on cooling costs.
Roofing contractors in Utah need to obtain a specialty contractor license through the Department of Commerce Division of Occupational and Professional Licensing. When applying for this license, contractors are required to show proof of general liability and workers' compensation insurance.
Roof replacement normally takes around one to five days. This timeline may be influenced by factors like the weather in Bountiful, the size of your roof, and how easy your roof is to access. .
Roof cleaning generally costs around $390 in Bountiful. The total cost will depend on the size of your roof, how many levels it has, its material, and how severe the problem is.
Roofs should normally be cleaned about once a year. You may need to clean your roof more frequently if there's a buildup of mildew, leaves, mold, or moss.
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 may be easier to get costs covered if the damage is due to a covered weather event like severe winter weather. You should talk to your home insurance company to find out if either of these situations apply to you.
