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:
Price is an important consideration when replacing your roof. Below is the typical price range to replace a roof on a 1,500 square foot home in Minnehaha. We also highlight prices for popular roofing materials.
Installing a new roof is a big home renovation that can cost tens of thousands of dollars. It's crucial to research thoroughly to find a highly skilled and reputable roofing company for the job. Here are some important considerations 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 popular residential roofing material, typically last 20–25 years before needing to be replaced. If your roof is nearing or past this lifespan, get a professional inspection to determine if full replacement is needed.
One of the clearest signs of a roof problem is leaking. Stains on walls, insulation, and ceilings — or in your attic — usually mean that water is seeping through deteriorating shingles. Don't ignore small leaks, because even these can lead to mold growth and roof damage.
If you can see roof sheathing or decking under shingles, it means that those shingles are severely curling or losing their seal. This means it's time for replacement. Shingles need to lie flat to stop water from leaking into your home.
Carefully inspect your shingles from the ground or a steady ladder. Look for any shingles that have cracked or have lost their protective granule coating. 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 creates a barrier against the elements around chimneys, valleys, vents, and other areas that penetrate your roof. If this metal flashing is coming loose, cracked open, or worn down, it can allow leaks. Any issues with flashing should be addressed promptly.
If you notice your roofline showing signs of sagging or unevenness, it could be a sign of a problem with the structure that requires further inspection by a roofer. A sagging roof deck will worsen over time if not given proper reinforcement or replaced entirely.
The best type of roofing material for your home in Minnehaha will depend on things like your budget and how frequently you're willing to do maintenance.
Metal is more expensive but lasts longer, 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.
All contractors in Washington state must register with the Department of Labor & Industries. Roofers are not required to hold any additional state-level licensure unless they work with asbestos. It's a good idea to check with your municipal government to determine if there are any local licensing requirements.
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 absolutely impacts how energy-efficient your home is. For example, in the winter a good roof allows you to spend less energy heating your home. Some roofing materials, like metal, provide better insulation than other types.
Spray foam insulation in one of the best types of insulation for your roof. It's longer lasting than other kinds and also seals any cracks in your roof. The disadvantage is that it costs more than other types of insulation.
You'll know your roofer did a good job if the roof is uniform in appearance, the roofline is not sagging, and the underlayment and flashing were properly installed.
