Frequently Asked Questions About Roof Replacement

By Stacy Mellete

Hiring the right roofing contractor in Riverview Florida for your roofing project requires asking the right questions. Here’s a look at the answers to the most common questions homeowners have about roof replacement.

How Do I Know If I Need a New Roof?

A qualified roofer should evaluate your roof to determine whether it’s at the end of its service life. You can also inspect your roof from the ground level using a pair of binoculars to check for missing shingles, rusted flashing and excessive granulation. Most asphalt shingle roofs last for 15-20 years, so if yours is reaching that point you’re likely due for replacement. A new roof will save you from the costs of constant roof repairs.

How Much Should I Expect to Spend on a New Roof?

Answer: There’s no easy answer for this as you need to consider several factors when calculating roof costs such as roof brand, size, type and shingle grade. The slope of your roofline also contributes to the overall cost. Good roofing companies provide detailed estimates with reliable numbers.

How Long Will the Replacement Process Take?

This will depend on the weather, the size of your roof, and how many layers in your current roofing system need to be removed. Residential roof replacement in Riverview FL typically takes three to four days, barring complications with your system.

Which Roofing Type Is Best for My Home?

There’s no right or wrong answer here as different homeowners have different needs and preferences. When deciding on a roofing material, consider your home’s architectural design, the local climate, and your budget.

These three details will help narrow down your choices, and your contractor can also offer expert guidance.
