Need Roof Repairs? Tips on Choosing the Right Roofers

by Chris Russell / Tuesday, 17 November 2015 / Published in Roofing

Over the years, roofs often get damaged by weather, animals, and simple wear and tear. Damage to your roof doesn’t always mean it’s time to replace the whole thing–as long as the majority of the roof is still intact, it’s possible to restore the damaged section to like-new condition and put off an expensive roof replacement. While you may be tempted to try to patch the damage up yourself, this can take years off your roof’s life and put your home at the mercy of the elements. Here’s how you can be sure you’re choosing the right roofers for the project.

Roofing Experience

First and foremost, your roofers should have a long history of working with roofs. Although roofs may look simple on the outside, there’s a lot that goes into them. What’s more, every roof has its own unique needs depending on location, sun exposure, and much more. An experienced roofing company knows how to fix any problem that comes up, from missing shingles to a moldy attic.

Your roofer should also be an expert in your particular type of roof. Roofs can be made from many different materials, including slate, tile, and asphalt. Each one has its own needs and its own problems that your roofer should be familiar with.

Local Experts

In addition to having general roofing experience, your roofer should be familiar with your local area. Roofs in Atlanta have different requirements than roofs in Los Angeles, for example. Different climates create different needs for insulation, design structure, and more, and your roofer should be familiar with the standards in your area.

An Eye for Detail

Not all damage to a roof is easily visible. Your roofer should be thorough in their inspection and repair of your roof, both inside and out. Even small cracks can let in leaks, insects, and other problems. They will also make your building less insulated and cause you to waste energy on your heat and air conditioning. An attention to detail also helps your roofer match your roof repairs to the rest of your roof so that it blends naturally and doesn’t detract from the appearance of your building.

Outstanding Work Ethic

Roofing can be a long and messy job. You need someone who you can count on to be reliable and hardworking throughout the entire process. Your roofing team should keep to the agreed-upon schedule and work efficiently to get the job done in a timely fashion. Equally important, they should clean up after themselves once the repairs are completed to minimize the disruption to your building.
