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:
Budgeting is important when tackling a project as big as roof replacement. Below, we provide the average price range for replacing a roof on a 1,500 square foot home in Glendale. We also highlight price differences between popular roof materials.
Installing a new roof is a major home renovation that may cost tens of thousands of dollars when finished. It's essential to research in depth to find a highly skilled and reputable roofing company for the job. Here are the main things to consider when picking a roofer.
You may not think about your roof every single day, but it protects your home in important ways. Look out for these common signals that your roof needs to be evaluated and repaired by a professional roofer.
The age and material of your roof are important. Asphalt shingles, the most popular roofing material for homes, usually last about 20 to 25 years. If your roof is nearing or past this lifespan, schedule an inspection to see if it needs to be replaced.
One of the clearest signs of a roof problem is leaking. Stains on ceilings, insulation, and walls — 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.
If you can see roof deck boards or sheathing under shingles, it indicates that those shingles are curling or losing their seal. This means it's time for replacement. Shingles need to lie flat to stop water from getting into your home.
Inspect your shingles closely from a steady ladder or while on the ground. Look for shingles that show cracks or are missing granules. Storms can cause roof damage over time. To keep your roof in working order, replace any shingles that have become detached or are openly gaping.
Roof flashing makes a watertight seal around chimneys, valleys, vents, and other areas where water can leak into your home. Cracked, peeling or deteriorated flashing can allow leaks. We recommend quickly addressing any problems with the roof flashing that come up.
An uneven roofline may indicate a structural issue that requires professional evaluation. Without properly addressing and resolving the issue, a sagging roof will worsen over time.
The best type of roofing material for your home in Glendale will depend on several factors, such as your budget and how often you're willing to do maintenance.
Asphalt is more budget-friendly, while materials like metal cost more but last longer. You also might choose a material like wood for its environmentally friendly nature.
Roofing contractors in Wisconsin are not required to hold licensure unless they undertake any jobs that require them to pull building permits (if this is the case, they may need a Dwelling Contractor license). Before hiring a contractor, it's a good idea to check with your local government to determine if there are any licensing requirements at the municipal level. Contractors who work with asbestos need to obtain a special certification from the Department of Health Services.
You can expect to pay about $470 for roof cleaning in Glendale. Factors like the size of your roof, the material of your roof, the extent of the issue, and how many stories your house has will all influence the total cost.
Generally, the fall or the spring is the best time of year to have your roof replaced. In Glendale, 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.
How soiled your roof is, in addition to what it's made of, will decide how your contractor cleans it. Some roofs benefit from power washing, but this is not recommended for materials like asphalt tiles. "Soft washing" is done with tools like brooms and brushes, and employs chemicals like detergent and bleach.
