Answers for Every Roofing Question

hidden

How do I know if I need a new roof?

Sometimes, there are obvious signs that you need a new roof: a hole in your roof, missing shingles, or water leaking through. Most of the time, however, the signs for needing a new roof are more subtle. Here are some common signs that you should get your roof inspected for damage:

  • broken / cracked / creased shingles
  • shingle granules on the ground
  • shingle granules or pieces of the roof clogging your gutters
  • animals living in your attic
  • moss and mold growth on your roof
  • damaged flashing
  • double layering

How long does a roof last?

How long a roof will last will depend mainly on the type of roof it is, what product is used, and the geography/weather. In terms of a roof type, for example, a common residential asphalt roof will last about 15 years whereas a metal roof could last an average 15-40 years.

Here are some insights into the lifespan of common types of roofs: asphalt shingle roofs (12-20 years), wood shingle/shake roofs (10-40 years), clay/concrete tile roofs (20-40 years), metal roofs (15-40 years), and slate roofs (25-100 years).

Additionally, not all roofing products are created equal. Certain manufacturers produce better products and certain products are better than others.

Geography and weather conditions also play a large part in determining how long a roof will last. Roofs that are in mild climates tend to last longer than roofs in harsh cold, hot, or stormy climates.

How often does a roof need to be replaced and what type of roofing lasts the longest?

How often a roof should be replaced depends mainly on the kind of roof it is. Here are some of the most common types of roofs and the average lifespan for those kinds of roofs:

  • Asphalt Shingle Roofs (12-20 years)
  • Wood Shingle/Shake Roofs (10-40 years)
  • Clay/Concrete Tile Roofs (20-40 years)
  • Metal Roofs (15-40 years)
  • Slate Roofs (25-100 years)

Once you determine the average lifetime of a roof based on the roof type, there are three more common factors that will impact the lifespan of the roof: product type, weather/geography, and the installation quality.

Basically, what product you choose, how harsh the weather is (hot, cold, stormy), and the installation precision all affect how long the roof will last.

Can I repair or replace the roof myself?

Can you? Yes. Should you? Probably not. The risk of fixing your roof almost never outweighs the reward of having someone else inspect it and fix it.

If you choose to do it yourself, you may solve the issue and save yourself some money. On the other hand you may fail to fix it and run the risk of wasting time, getting injured, violating the manufacturer’s warranty, violating your homeowner’s insurance policy, and potentially causing more damage to your roof.

Failing to properly fix or replace your roof can also lead to leaks which can lead to interior water damage and cost you exponentially more than what a roof repair or replacement may have cost.

Which kind of roof is best for me?

When deciding what kind of roof is best for you, here are three of the most important considerations:

  • Budget - choosing the right roof will likely begin with a review of your budget as roof products widely range in price.
  • Durability - evaluating your geography will also be important, especially if you live in climates that are more severely affected by hot, cold, or stormy weather. The harsher the climate, the more important it will be to choose a roof type that can withstand the natural elements.
  • Style / Color / Curb Appeal - once you’ve determined your budget and desired durability, you will have a clearer picture of what kind of roof type is right for you. Now you can focus on style and finding a roof style and color that fits your property’s landscape and surroundings.

What kind of roof shingle is best?

Asphalt shingles are the most popular shingle due to their affordability to install and maintain. There are three main types of asphalt shingles:

  • 3-Tab Shingles - a 3-tab asphalt shingle (sometimes called a “strip” shingle) is the most basic kind of shingle and is made from a single layer of asphalt allowing them to lie extremely flat against the roof.
  • Architectural Shingles - an architectural shingle (sometimes called a “dimensional” or “laminate” shingle) is a much more advanced shingle with multiple layers of asphalt melded together to give the roof a multidimensional look.
  • Designer Shingles - a designer shingle (sometimes called a “premium” or “luxury” shingle) usually yields high-quality multidimensional designs, advanced protection from weather, and maximum energy efficiency.

What kind of warranty do you offer?

We warranty our work 2.5X longer than the industry standard so you can be sure you’re making the best investment. While the manufacturer of the roofing materials typically offers a warranty on the products (no matter who installs your roof), the roofing contractor will typically offer its own warranty on the workmanship. Most workmanship warranties offered by individual roofing contractors last for one year or more. A Master Elite® contractor can offer enhanced warranties backed by GAF, which cover both the GAF products and workmanship.

What should I look for when hiring a roofing contractor?

Finding the right roofing contractor boils down to find someone who can do the job right and give you a good experience while doing it. And the only way you can know these two things is through proof like:

  • What Others Say - the volume and quality of reviews and testimonials on Google, Facebook and online business directories (BBB, HomeAdvisor, Angie’s List) can give you confidence through social proof.
  • What Projects They’ve Done - the volume and quality of the projects they’ve completed can also help you visualize whether or not they will be able to do the job well.
  • What “Guarantees” They Can Give - the warranties and guarantees they offer for the product (e.g. product warranty) and the service (e.g. labor warranty) can go a long way in boosting your confidence.

What should be included in a roofing contract?

When the time comes to choose a roofing contractor you’ll want to look for these elements in the contract:

  • Roof system specifications like roof type, product type, manufacturer, color, etc
  • Other materials included in the project like underlayment, starter strip, drip edge, ridge vents accessories, ice and water shield, etc
  • Scope of work to be done like removal of existing shingles, flashing, ventilation, etc
  • Installation method - repair, partial replacement, full replacement, full tear-off, etc
  • Warranties related to the product or labor
  • Other common contractual details like start & end date, payment terms, etc

What is a GAF Master Elite roofing contractor?

When you choose a GAF factory-certified roofing contractor like SmartRoof, you know you’re getting the best in the business. Only 2% of roofing contractors in North America are GAF Master Elite®, a certification they renew every year. Plus, every GAF-certified contractor offers superior protection with the GAF Lifetime Roofing System, and has access to enhanced warranties, backed by GAF. This certification requires the contractor to be:

  • Properly Insured & Licensed - For your protection and peace of mind, GAF certified contractors must have $1M+ Liability Insurance, workmen's compensation, and state licensing (where required and applicable).
  • Reputable & Trustworthy - GAF certified contractors must have a track record for providing quality roofing services in the community (e.g. good standing with the Better Business Bureau, good credit rating per Experian).
  • Highly Qualified - GAF certified contractors are well trained and equipped with the latest technology and practices, ensuring expert installation (i.e. GAF trained and certified, high property owner job satisfaction ratings, and able to offer the strongest GAF warranties)

Does homeowners insurance cover roof damage?

If the roof damage is caused by wind or hail or fire, homeowners insurance will likely cover the cost of the damage. In the case of wind and hail damage, homeowners insurance may require the homeowner to pay their deductible.

If the damage (hail, wind, fire) is severe enough, many homeowners insurance policies will even cover roof replacement if the damage is the result of an act of nature or sudden accidental event.

On the other hand, most homeowners insurance policies will NOT pay to replace or repair a roof that has suffered gradual deterioration due to wear-and-tear or neglect. Roofs that are over 20 years old often have limited coverage, if any.

To maximize the chance of getting your claim approved, make sure to keep records of repairs, before-and-after photos, and reports from inspections. One of your most important next steps is to call a storm restoration specialist who can give you a free roof inspection and report.

Does my homeowners insurance cover roof repair / roof replacement?

Most homeowners insurance policies include either repair coverage or replacement coverage. Repair Coverage covers roof repair costs, while Replacement Coverage covers the cost of a full roof replacement for a roof in a condition beyond repair.

If the damage caused to the roof stems from wind or hail or fire, homeowners insurance will likely cover the cost for the repair or replacement of the roof. If, however, the damage to the roof is simply due to natural deterioration or neglect (e.g. a leak should have been repaired but wasn’t) then homeowners insurance will likely be exempt from reimbursing the homeowner for any damages.

Before you file a claim with your insurance company, find a roofing contractor you trust to come and perform a roof inspection to assess the damage to your roof and evaluate whether it will be covered by your homeowners policy. (If you’ve already filed an insurance claim, reach out to a roofing contractor who can advise you on the best way to move your claim forward.)

Is a leaking roof covered by homeowners insurance?

In most cases, roof leaks are covered by homeowners insurance. If the damage to your roof was caused by wind or hail or fire then you will likely be reimbursed for the cost of fixing the damage to your roof (whether it be a small repair or full roof replacement).

However, your homeowners insurance will likely NOT cover leaks that were caused by natural deterioration or neglect (e.g. poor maintenance, failing to fix a leak you were aware of, etc).
