3 Practical Questions to Ask When Planning a Roof Replacement

Roof replacement is one of the biggest investments you’ll ever make. That’s why you’ll need to cover all your bases while you’re still in the planning stage. Earl W. Johnston Roofing, LLC, your premier residential and commercial roofing expert, shares some practical questions to ask your contractor when planning the project.

1. Do I need to move out during the construction? Roof replacement can be disruptive, usually involving considerable mess and noise. Staying on-site while the work is going on will be a test of patience and resilience, but ultimately it comes down to your own preferences and the needs of your family. If you have small children or pets, it might be best to send them to a friend or relative’s house while the work is underway.

2. How much will the project cost? This will depend on a number of factors, including the quality of the materials you chose, the overall condition of the existing roof structure (repairing extensive damage will add to the overall cost of the new roof), the method of roof replacement (roof-over vs. complete tear-off), and miscellaneous charges, such as renting a dumpster for disposal. You’ll want to get a detailed and accurate estimate from your residential roofing contractor and take a close look at the charges written in the contract to set your expectations.

3. How can I ensure I’m getting the most value for my money? You’ll want to make sure you’re hiring a reliable roofer for the job. In this area, Earl W. Johnston Roofing, LLC is the name to call.
