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:
For a project as substantial as roof replacement, cost is important. Below is the typical price range to replace a roof on a 1,500 square foot home in Parkland. We also compare costs for common roofing materials.
A new roof installation is a large home renovation that can cost tens of thousands of dollars. It's crucial to research and find a top-rated, trusted roofing company for the job. Here are the top things to evaluate when choosing a roofer.
You may not think about your roof every single day, but it plays a vital role protecting your home. Look out for these common signals that your roof needs to be inspected and repaired by a professional roofer.
Your roof's age and material are key factors. Asphalt shingles, the most common residential roofing material, normally last about 20 to 25 years before needing to be replaced. Schedule a professional inspection if your roof is approaching or past this lifespan to determine if full replacement is needed.
Leaks are a definite sign that your roof requires repairs. Stains on insulation, ceilings, or walls, or in your attic often signal that water is getting through deteriorating shingles. Even minor leaks should be taken care of right away, as they can cause mold and more harm over time.
Visible roof decking or sheathing under your shingles is a sign 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 entering your home.
Carefully inspect your shingles from the ground or a safely-placed ladder. Look for any shingles that have cracks or are missing granules. Over time, environmental factors like storms can cause surface damage. To keep your roof in good condition, you should replace any shingles that are no longer attached properly or that have gaps.
Roof flashing creates a watertight seal around vents, valleys, chimneys, and other areas where water can leak into your home. Peeling, cracked, or deteriorated flashing can allow leaks. We recommend quickly addressing any problems with the roof flashing that come up.
If you notice your roofline sagging or sloping unevenly, it could be a sign of a problem with the structure that requires professional inspection. 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 Parkland will depend on factors such as your budget and how frequently you're willing to do maintenance.
Metal costs more but is more durable, while asphalt will be cheaper up front but won't last as long. Wood has better insulation than many other roofing types, which can save you money during colder months.
All contractors in Washington state need to register with the Department of Labor & Industries. Roofers are not required to hold any additional state-level licensure unless they work with asbestos. Be sure to check with your municipal government to determine if there are any local licensing requirements.
Generally, it takes around one to five days to replace a roof. Things that could influence this timeline include the size of your roof, how easily accessible it is, and the weather in Parkland during the process. Parkland tends to see a lot of rain, which might delay the project.
Generally, the fall or the spring is the best time of year to have your roof replaced. In Parkland, we highly recommend avoiding the wintertime if you can, as cold temperatures can negatively affect the project's timeline – not to mention you may be cold while contractors are working.
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 some costs covered if the damage was caused by a covered weather event such as an ice storm. You should reach out to your home insurance company to find out if either of these situations are applicable to you.
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, such as asphalt shingles. When soft washing your roof, your contractor might use chemicals like detergent and bleach, and tools such as brushes and brooms.
