FAQs
1. How can I tell if my roof needs a full replacement rather than just repairs?
Some key indicators include widespread or persistent leaks, multiple loose or missing shingles, noticeable dips or sagging, and extensive damage from storms. If you see granule loss on shingles, curling edges, or if your roof is over 20 years old, it’s often more cost-effective and safer to opt for a comprehensive replacement rather than making repeated small fixes.
2. How long does a full roof replacement in the Rockford area typically take?
While most standard roof replacements can be completed within one to three days, the actual timeline depends on factors like your roof’s size, complexity, the weather, and the roofing materials used. In Rockford, seasonal weather conditions—especially snow or heavy rains—can sometimes cause delays. Your roofing contractor should provide an estimated timeframe based on your specific project.
3. What roofing materials work best for Rockford's climate?
Asphalt shingles are a popular, cost-effective choice for Rockford’s varying temperatures. They handle both cold winters and hot summers reasonably well. Metal roofing and architectural shingles are also great options because of their durability and resistance to extreme weather. Ultimately, the right material depends on your style preferences, budget, and the roof’s structural needs.
4. Will you remove and dispose of my old roof during replacement?
Yes. Most professional roofing contractors include complete removal and disposal of old roofing materials in their full replacement services. This ensures any underlying damage is addressed and a fresh, secure base is prepared. You won’t have to worry about hauling away debris yourself—proper disposal and clean-up should be part of the overall project.
5. How should I prepare my home and property for a roof replacement?
Prior to the start date, clear vehicles and valuables from your driveway and remove fragile items from interior walls to avoid damage from vibrations. It’s also wise to cover or move outdoor patio furniture, grills, and sensitive landscaping. Communicating with your contractor about any concerns ensures that your property stays protected throughout the project.
6. What kind of warranties are available for a new roof?
Warranties generally come in two parts: one covers materials through the manufacturer, and the other covers workmanship from the contractor. Manufacturer warranties vary by brand, often lasting between 20 and 50 years, and can be transferable if you sell your home. Workmanship warranties ensure the contractor addresses any installation-related issues within a specific period.
