Frequently Asked Questions About Roofing and Replacements

How much does a new roof cost?

The price of your new roof actually depends on three things: the size of the roof, its slope and the shape of your existing roofing system. The material also plays a significant role in determining how much you’ll have to pay for a new roof. Asphalt shingles remain a solid choice since they’re affordable and they have respectable physical and elemental resilience.

Should I do a re-roof or complete replacement?

Re-roofing is ideal if your current roofing system is still relatively new and you’re addressing isolated damage. Roof replacement, on the other hand, is necessary if there’s extensive damage to the roof or if your roof is nearing the end of its operating life span.

For asphalt shingles, the 20-year mark is the point at which replacements are more economical than re-roofing or repair since these will cost as much as a replacement. And in cases like this, it’s better to switch to a new roof for better protection.

Is it necessary to get a roofing warranty?

While we will guarantee professional workmanship when we install or replace your roof, it still pays to get a warranty. It protects you from surprises, such as a manufacturer’s defect. As a GAF Master Elite™ roofing contractor, we offer the Golden Pledge® Limited Warranty. This gives you a 50-year coverage on materials, as well as a 20-year coverage on installation.
