Call (732) 285-6873Note 01How often should a roof be replaced?
When it stops being repairable, not on a calendar. Asphalt is commonly rated at 15 to 30 years, but a roof is done when it sheds shingles in ordinary winds, leaks in several places, or goes soft underfoot, and not before. A roof that stays dry over a sound deck can be repaired.
Note 02What is the most expensive part of replacing a roof?
Usually what nobody could see: extra layers to strip and soft decking under them. On older ranches and capes, where local roofers report poor attic ventilation, darkened or rotted decking is the common surprise, which is why decking is priced per sheet once it has been counted.
Note 03What is the cheapest option for a new roof?
A basic three-tab asphalt shingle, the cost-effective covering that was once the most common asphalt shingle of all. Architectural shingle costs more and is the usual choice now. On an older ranch or cape, the bigger saving is an attic vented properly, so the new roof does not rot from below in its first winters.
