The deciding considerations for repairing or replacing your roof are the roof's age, the material's condition, and the project's scope. After assessing the project’s material, and potential outcomes, a professional roofing estimator can determine if a repair is the correct answer for your roofing project. A reliable roofing contractor will inform you of these issues if the roof is beyond its useful life or if a repair becomes cost prohibitive. They will provide you with a recommendation to move forward in another direction. The only way to know for sure is to have your roof, and the project looked at by a professional roofing company experienced in repairs and roof replacement
There is no blanket answer to the expected life of a roof repair. However, certain types of roof repairs do last longer than others. When repairing a section of a roof, the longest-lasting repair typically covers the entire roof facet. It often includes replacing old roof accessories in the process. The real questions to ask yourself, and the roofer are: Does this repair add life back to my roof? Can this repair last the estimated life of my existing roofing material? If the answer to both of these questions is yes, then a repair might be the right option for you.
There are several factors that go into whether or not a roofing contractor will charge a fee for repair estimates. It is not uncommon for many companies to charge a small fee or deposit at the time of the appointment. Usually, this fee is a few hundred dollars at most.
Most services have a minimum fee, roof repairs are no different. The labor and expertise of an experienced roofer mean that the repair will be done right the first time. Beware of the roofing company that charges very low prices, as this can be an indication that corners will be cut. A reputable roofing company like Culver Roofing will always provide our best price forward, with a clear project plan, so you are never left with any questions about your estimate!
Culver Roofing does perform roofing projects for remodels and additions. If you are updating your roofline, extending a porch roof, or adding an entirely new section to your home and roof, our team of expert roofers will install a new roof section that will protect your new space for years to come.
While we do not recommend having the roof cleaned at the same time as a repair, it is a good idea to consider a roof cleaning and maintenance if you are having a roof repair project performed. A roof cleaning service can be performed shortly after your repair and will ensure the rest of your roof is in optimal shape.
