    A Guide to Roof Repairs and Contractors

    ​Whether you need to simply repair a roof or completely replace varies from roof to roof, depending on various factors such as your roof's age and whether it has any prior damage. Purchasing a new roof or repairing an existing one can affect your entire house, making it one of the most critical decisions you may make for your home.

    Finding the right roof repair company may seem like a large task, but you can make it much simpler by first establishing what you need. Keep in mind your future plans for your home, its current condition, and whether your roof needs repair or replacement. Read on to learn more about finding the right roof repair company for you.

    Evaluate Your Options and Priorities in Advance

    When shopping around for a roof repair company or private contractor, there are a wide range of different choices and options available. Depending on your own personal preferences and the factors involved in your project, contractors' estimates tend to vary. Important factors to consider during your research for a roof repair company include:

    • Your roof's slope and size.
    • Your roof's material and accessories, including: asphalt, metal, clay tile, PVC, rubber, spray foam, slate, or traditional wood shingles.
    • Your roof's underlayment, which keeps wind-driven rain penetrating beneath shingles and causing damage to the roof structure or your home.
    • Ventilation vents to prevent moisture and heat build-up in your home. Condensation can lead to the formation of mold and ice dams, while trapped heat beneath the roof can cause shingles to crack and deteriorate more rapidly.
    • Existing roofing.
    • Labor and installation.
    • Project complexity.

    Generally speaking, most prices for residential roofing repairs range from $200 to $900. However, for roofs that are severely damaged or are being replaced completely, labor costs for removing old roofing can raise this price.

    What to Look for in a Roof Repair Company

    Following an initial evaluation of your roof, a roof repair company will be able to make an estimate of the project and offer you a bid for the price of the project. The ideal contractor's estimate will include the material, labor, and time costs. Even the most detailed bids shouldn't be considered without at least comparing a few different offers first.

    It's also important that you research your roof repair company and contractor. Make sure they have a license and insurance before you hire them, and ask the roof repair company whether they warranty their repairs to prevent legal problems down the road.

    Additionally, make sure you have a clear understanding of project time frame and payment schedule before signing a contract, as homeowners should never pay in full before beginning the project. Cheaper bids and door-to-door contractors following a large storm may not be your best bet, as they are sometimes from a potentially subpar roof repair company.
