Q: How much does a new roof cost? |
| A: Each roof is unique and has many variables such pitch, material selection, how many angles, and accessibility and other unforeseen things. The best way to get an accurate quote is to set up an appointment for a free estimate and walk through with a roofing professional. |
Q: How long does a roof last? |
| A: This all depends on a few factors: 1.) What type of roof do you have? 2.) How much of the roof faces in the south direction? 3.) Are there multiple layers? 4.) Has there been any maintenance done with the roof? Though there can be many differrent situations for any number of roofs here are some general ideas. Asphalt shingles/composition roofing: 17 - 22 years for 20 yr 3 Tab. For the newer architectural ahingles, 22 - 27 years. Wood Shakes: 15 - 18 years for medium thicknesses. For Heavy thicknesses 20+/-years. Hot Asphalt roofs: 15 - 20 for torch down membranes. For hot mopped systems 20 - 25 years if regularly maintained. Metal: Is a lifetime product but needs maintenance. Exposed fasteners and silicone need to be checked regularly. Hopefully this gives you afew ideas. It is recommended to have a roofing professional inspect your individual roof to see how it is performing and see how much life it has remaining.
