FAQs
What are the most common signs I might need a roof replacement in Louisville?
Indications include missing or cracked shingles, leaks in the attic or ceiling, curling or buckling shingles, and excessive shingle granules in gutters. In Louisville’s climate—with humidity, rain, and occasional severe storms—these issues can quickly worsen, making timely inspection and replacement key to preventing major damage.
How long does a typical roof replacement project usually take?
Most standard residential roof replacements can be completed within one to three days, depending on the size of the home, type of roofing materials chosen, and weather conditions. Unexpected issues, such as structural damage, may extend the timeline slightly.
Which roofing materials are best for Louisville’s varied weather?
Asphalt shingles remain a popular choice for their affordability, durability, and relative resilience to Kentucky’s climate. Metal roofing is another excellent option due to its longevity and resistance to strong winds and hail. Other materials like cedar shake or synthetic shingles can also be chosen for their distinct aesthetics and weather performance.
What does the roof replacement process typically involve?
After a thorough inspection, we remove and dispose of the existing roof materials, check for any underlying structural issues, and then install new underlayment and shingles or panels. Each step is carried out carefully to ensure a durable, watertight result and to minimize disruption to your daily routine.
Do you offer warranties or guarantees on replacement roofs?
Yes. We stand behind our workmanship, and many of the roofing materials we use come with manufacturer warranties. You can expect both a manufacturer’s warranty—covering defects in the product—and a workmanship warranty—covering the installation—for added peace of mind.
How should I prepare my home before the roof replacement begins?
It’s helpful to move vehicles away from the construction area, secure outdoor items like patio furniture or grills, and cover or remove valuables from your attic. Additionally, ensuring easy access to electrical outlets and having a clear driveway make the job site safer and more efficient for our crew.
