Whether you need a roof repair or roof replacement, it’s important to note that not all roofers offer the same solution. Some roofers may suggest a roof replacement when all you really need are roof repairs. A roof is not something you can easily undo after realizing there was a mistake somewhere. Replacing a roof can be costlier that it needs to be if a roofer cuts corners or installs it incorrectly.

Basically, there are four common types of roofing materials available: asphalt shingles, tiles, slate, and metal. Metal roofing is durable, lightweight and comes with a longer life expectancy as compared to other materials. It's also easy to modify and install new structures on top of a metal roofing. However, it requires an experienced licensed roofing contractor for a successful installation. Asphalt shingle roofing looks sharp, is inexpensive and comes in various colors. The shingles are also fire resistant and can be easily repaired. Slate roofing looks beautiful, fantastic, is long-lasting and durable, though it may be heavy and a bit expensive. Tiles are appealing with their wide range of styles and colors. However, they are fragile and need to be handled with extra caution during installation.

How Long Will My Roof Replacement Last?

We will help you select the best type of roof for your home and budget. But durability should be a top priority, especially considering our sub-tropical climate. You should install a roof that will withstand the wind, heat and moisture without wearing out in a few years. The roof warranty will give you a good indication of its durability. For example, a tile roof with a 20-30-year warranty will outlast a shingle roof with a 15-year warranty.

Choosing a Qualified Roofer

When choosing a qualified roofer for roof repair or replacement, make sure they are a licensed roofing contractor, bonded and insured. Also, make sure the roofer offers 24-hour emergency service in the event your roof needs immediate repairs in the middle of the night.
