Let’s use an older asphalt roof as an example. Below are some of the signs that an asphalt roof has reached the end of its lifespan:

1. Curling or buckling shingles

2. Lack of granules making the shingles look bald

3. Missing shingles

4. Roof sagging Moss covering your roof

5. Blistering shingles

6. Finding granules in the gutter

If an asphalt roof has any or all of the above, there’s a good chance it’s time for a replacement. Be aware there are cases when you need a roof replacement sooner than expected because of storm damage or premature roof failure caused by improper installation and/or using cheap roofing materials. 

If you’re on a tight budget and looking for affordability, an architectural asphalt shingle roof is probably the best option. But if your budget has some range and you want a roof that stands out more, luxury asphalt shingles are a great option.

If budget isn’t an issue and you want a roof that turns heads, a standing seam metal roof, a composite (synthetic) shingle roof, a cedar shake roof, or a slate roof is the way to go. Just know these are premium roof systems that come at a price most homeowners can’t afford.

Unfortunately, it’s impossible to give you an exact price for your roof due to the multiple cost factors. However, I can at least give you a general idea. 

The average cost to replace a roof is around $15,000. The price is based on a home with 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, a walkable roof pitch, a little roof complexity, and architectural asphalt shingles.Keep in mind your roofing material has a huge impact on the cost of your new roof. So, if you’re interested in upgrading to a luxury asphalt shingle, you’re looking at paying double.    

In extreme cases, a roof replacement could take three to five days. Depending on the roofing material you choose, the weather, complexity, accessibility, and the size of your home, it could even take up to three weeks. But unless it’s a large home, a roof can typically be replaced in a day. 

Yes, Your roof with us comes with 5 Year warranty.

For insurance to cover roof damage, it must be caused by an extreme weather event. This includes straight-line winds (aka damaging winds) during heavy thunderstorms, hail storms, snowstorms, and tornados. It should also cover roof damage from fallen tree limbs caused during storms or strong wind.

Depending on the type of policy you have, homeowners insurance should cover a roof replacement if it’s damaged from any of the above events.

Just know your insurance adjuster and the insurance company have the final say if your claim actually gets approved or not. But as long as the damage is caused by extreme weather, your homeowner’s insurance should cover the expense.
