Let's face it. Roof repair or replacement is job number one when considering home upgrades. Everything you do, from remodeling to painting to renovations, will be ruined without a functioning roof. Roof replacement is probably one of the most “boring” home renovations, but certainly is one of the most essential.
Roof Replacement is the process of removing the existing roof when in disrepair. Nailing over the existing roof is not recommended due to the added weight and increased chance of leaks. There are many factors that may cause a roof to fail, such as poor workmanship, faulty materials, inclement weather, age, and improper maintenance.
Your choice of roofing materials depends on your own personal taste and on the style of your home.
- Asphalt Shingles: Cheap and easily obtainable, but less attractive than other options due to "flat" appearance.
- Wood Shake: more expensive, but an attractive shingle.
- Metal Roofing: Metal roofing is less common, and few roofers install it; great for heat reflection and snow shedding.
- Architectural shingles or "Faux" Slate - Recycled post-industrial synthetics gaining in popularity.
