Revildor predicts that a roof repair will bring in around 60% of the home's original value when it comes to a property sale. Your home's marketability will determine how many buyers it attracts and what kind of offers they are willing to accept.
While slate and stones tiles are more expensive that metal or wood, they are also very durable. Slate and stone tiles are not only fireproof and resist extreme temperatures but also resist impact from hail, small branches and high winds.

The roofing materials used to build your current roof will play a role in determining whether you require a new roof. Cedar is a very common roofing material. In dry climates, it will split and fall. However, if you live in Florida with humid climates, the cedar may experience rot and moss. Cedar roofs have a life expectancy of around 20 years. Another popular roofing material is tile. The lifespan of tile roofing is up to 100 year. Individual tiles may crack or break. Revildor can replace damaged tiles. Concrete roofing is not usually required to be replaced, unless an extraordinary circumstance occurs.
Sometimes, a roof that was damaged years ago might have been reshingled to save time. You may have multiple layers of shingles on your roof if you live in one of these cases. This will reflect in the cost of roofing labor per square foot.
Roof costs vary depending on the material. You may also be interested in other roof materials such as slate, metal, copper or slate. We might have a guide to meet your needs.
You can handle minor roof repairs, such as replacing damaged shingles, if you are comfortable climbing up a ladder or through an upstairs window. You will need roofing cement, roofing nails, a putty knife and a hammer to do the job.
A moderately-sized, professionally-installed roofing job might take only 3 or 4 days. The complete process is followed by the roofing crew.
A lot of rotting wood underneath the shingles can not only make it more difficult but also more dangerous. The cost to replace your roof may rise or even double if the wood is rotten. Your roofing professional will need more time and tools to ensure your safety as they complete your roofing replacement.
Additional materials might be needed for complex roof designs. Contractors charge more for complex roof designs. Roof pitch or slope can be a factor in the price. A home roof can come with a low pitch, high pitch, or no pitch. Cost of the roofing project is affected by what type of roof you have. We calculate the roof's cost by looking at the roof's ratio, e.g. 7:12. The first number indicates the height while the second is the length. A roof with a 7/12 ratio is a roof that rises 7 inches for every 12 ins it runs horizontally. A steep roof will have a roof ratio of 7 to 12. Contractors will be charged more if the work takes longer.
If you live in hot climates and want to replace asphalt shingles by terracotta or concrete tiles, you should first consult a roofing contractor. They can help you determine if additional supports are necessary for your roof. These tiles weigh more than asphalt and can cause damage to your home.
The wrong roofing material can trap heat, making your home even more hot if it is in a hot area. This is why you will often see terracotta roofing in Arizona and Florida. This type of roofing is created by connecting curved tiles, which absorb some heat and allow for airflow between the tiles.
