Is your roof in Lancaster, NY, leaking all over the place? When you’re standing in the yard, can you see major areas of dipping and sagging? Are the majority of the shingles rotted or missing? Is your roof more than 15 years old?
A “yes” answer to any of these questions means a roof replacement may be needed. If so, Felgemacher Roofing & Siding is a local New York roofing contractor that can do the job beautifully, correctly, and in compliance with building code regulations.
But before we jump into a full-scale roof replacement project, we want to find out whether your roof really needs to be replaced.
Roof Repair vs. Roof Replacement
In certain cases, roof damage can be repaired: shingles can be replaced, decking strengthened, and truss systems partially rebuilt. Roof repair is often the right approach when only parts of a roof have been damaged by:
- Powerful winds
- Pounding hailstorms
- An isolated house fire
- Falling tree branches
On the other hand, a new roof is usually in order when there’s widespread, systemic roof damage caused by:
- Old age
- Water leaks throughout the roof
- Large sections of structural sagging
- Inferior-quality shingles and roofing materials
- People who didn’t know what they were doing when they built the roof
It Starts with a Roof Inspection
Our roof replacement process begins with an inspection. This will tell us where the problems are, their extent, and whether or not repairs are feasible. Never let a New York roofing contractor just glance at your roof from your yard and tell you that you need a new one.
We’ll go over our inspection report with you so you’ll understand exactly what we found and our specific recommendations. If a new roof installation is the right course of action, we’ll let you know how long it will take, what it will cost, and what type of disruptions may happen on your property during the work.
Quality Roofing Materials
The next step is ordering the materials. We purchase from only the most trusted suppliers that produce the very best roofing materials in the industry. For shingles, we use Owens Corning premium asphalt roofing shingles because no other shingle can match their beauty, appearance, and resiliency.
Code-Compliant Roofing
After we’ve secured the materials, we’ll get to work, making sure all aspects of the project comply with state and local building codes. When it’s finished, you’ll be amazed by the transformation and look forward to many years with a roof that looks wonderful and provides solid protection for your Lancaster, NY, home.
