Frequently Asked Questions
❓How long does a new roof take to install?
A new roof installation is a unique project, which makes it nearly impossible to give an exact time estimate. Roof installation can be done in a day on a small residential home. In order for this to happen, the materials must be delivered on time, with no weather complications.
Colonial, A-frame, and Cape Cod style roofing styles have a high height, making them more difficult to install. The steeper and higher your roof is, the longer it will take to complete your roofing project. A roofer's time estimate is based on the assumption that the weather will be favorable throughout. The best time to schedule a roofing project is during the warm, dry season. Even though roofers can work in harsh weather conditions, they can only do so when their safety is guaranteed. A roofer may have to wait until the weather improves if it's too treacherous to remain on your roof.
❓When is the best time to install a new roof?
During the time when winter is disappearing and the cold weather is moving on, homeowners are thinking of the many home improvement projects they can complete once it is pleasant to be outside again. The harsh winter weather can also cause leaks, drafts and cave-ins, so it's not unusual for homeowners to start thinking about replacing their roofs at this time of year.
For most areas of the U.S., spring is the best time for roof installment because winter is too cold, summer is too hot, and fall is too busy. When the temperature is below 45°F, asphalt shingles will not adhere to your roof and will not create the sealing that keeps them in place. Spring is therefore an optimal time to consider a new roof.
It is possible for the weather to be a bit unpredictable during the spring when you replace your roof. The interruption of rain during your installation might result in some delays, but roofers are accustomed to adapting to changes in weather and frequently have back-up plans in case the sky opens up. Spring storms don't have to be a hindrance to your installation (or parade) if you plan ahead.
❓Can a new roof be installed in the winter?
Winter can be an ideal time to install your roof, despite a few obstacles. Plus, since the roofing business slows down during winter, you can get the best deals.
Additionally, professional roofing contractors use numerous techniques to ensure your roof is not affected by cold temperatures.
