Have you been spending too much money on repairs? Are you worried that serious damage will occur to your home if nothing is done about the roof?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A roof replacement is the right option when the current roof cannot be safely repaired. Felgemacher Roofing &amp; Siding serves all of Amherst, NY, and Erie County, NY, with professional roof replacements by experienced, licensed roofers.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>Can Your Roof Be Repaired?<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-4966 alignright\" src=\"https:\/\/www.felgemachermasonry.com\/roofing-copy\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2025\/05\/IMG_2560.jpg\" alt=\"Professional Shingle Replacement in Amherst, NY\" width=\"600\" height=\"600\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.felgemachermasonry.com\/roofing\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2025\/05\/IMG_2560.jpg 1080w, https:\/\/www.felgemachermasonry.com\/roofing\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2025\/05\/IMG_2560-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.felgemachermasonry.com\/roofing\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2025\/05\/IMG_2560-1024x1024.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.felgemachermasonry.com\/roofing\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2025\/05\/IMG_2560-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.felgemachermasonry.com\/roofing\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2025\/05\/IMG_2560-768x768.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Not every damaged roof needs to be replaced. Roof replacement is only called for when professional repair work isn\u2019t enough to protect the home and keep the roof stable. Here are three factors to consider when deciding whether to repair or replace your roof.<\/span><\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>\n<h3><b> How old is the roof?<\/b><\/h3>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If your Amherst, NY, roof has passed the 20-year mark, replacement should be considered if damage is showing up throughout it. With an older roof, continuing to try to repair it can amount to little more than \u201cthrowing good money after bad.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<ol start=\"2\">\n<li>\n<h3><b> Has the roof begun to sag?<\/b><\/h3>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you can stand out in the yard or on the street and see that large sections of your roof appear warped, this indicates a problem with the truss system or decking. A roof replacement is the only sound way to address this kind of problem.<\/span><\/p>\n<ol start=\"3\">\n<li>\n<h3><b> Is your roof unattractive?<\/b><\/h3>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The beauty of your Amherst, NY, home and property can be marred by major deterioration around the roof edges, sunken areas that make everything look off-balance, significant rotting from water intrusion, and destructive leaks. Replacing a roof with these issues is the best way to restore your home\u2019s aesthetic appeal.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>Amherst, NY Roof Replacement Process<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We start every roofing project with a thorough inspection to determine if repairs or a roof replacement is the right option. If you live outside the greater Amherst, NY, region, don\u2019t let any roofing contractor do anything to your roof before performing a documented inspection.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Felgemacher specializes in roof replacements that include top-quality Owens Corning asphalt shingles. We'll show you the many colors, shapes, textures, and styles available so you can choose the exact look you want for your new roof. We\u2019ll go over timelines for completion and project costs. If financing will be needed, we can assist you in obtaining financing through GreenSky.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When the plan is in place, we\u2019ll order the materials and get to work with our own roofing experts, never subcontractors. From start to finish, we'll minimize disruption to your home and its occupants. We'll remove the old roof materials from your property, leaving it as clean as when we first entered.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft wp-image-4775\" src=\"https:\/\/www.felgemachermasonry.com\/roofing-copy\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2025\/05\/OC_TDD_Brownwood_beautyshot_jpg-2.jpg\" alt=\"Certified roofers in Amherst, NY\" width=\"600\" height=\"600\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.felgemachermasonry.com\/roofing\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2025\/05\/OC_TDD_Brownwood_beautyshot_jpg-2.jpg 1080w, https:\/\/www.felgemachermasonry.com\/roofing\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2025\/05\/OC_TDD_Brownwood_beautyshot_jpg-2-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.felgemachermasonry.com\/roofing\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2025\/05\/OC_TDD_Brownwood_beautyshot_jpg-2-1024x1024.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.felgemachermasonry.com\/roofing\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2025\/05\/OC_TDD_Brownwood_beautyshot_jpg-2-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.felgemachermasonry.com\/roofing\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2025\/05\/OC_TDD_Brownwood_beautyshot_jpg-2-768x768.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/p>\n<h2><b>Working with Felgemacher for Roof Replacements in Amherst, NY<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Felgemacher Roofing &amp; Siding is family-owned and family-managed.
