Most residential roof replacements take 2-4 days depending on home size, weather conditions, and material choice. Complex rooflines or tile installations may require additional time.What's included in a complete re-roof?
Complete tear-off of existing materials, inspection of roof deck, new underlayment installation, shingle or tile application, flashing replacement, and thorough cleanup of debris.When should I replace my roof?
Replace when shingles are curling, cracking, or missing granules extensively. Roofs typically need replacement every 20-30 years, or sooner with severe weather damage.Can I install new shingles over old ones?
We recommend complete tear-off for best results. Overlaying hides deck problems, reduces material lifespan, and may violate building codes or warranty terms.What affects roof replacement cost?
Home size, material choice, roof complexity, existing damage, and accessibility impact pricing. Steeper pitches and multiple dormers increase installation complexity and time.Do I need new underlayment too?
Yes, new underlayment is essential for proper moisture protection. Old underlayment may be deteriorated and won't provide adequate leak protection under new materials.What's the best time for replacement?
Late spring through early fall offers optimal weather conditions. However, we work year-round and can accommodate emergency replacements when weather permits safely.How do I prepare for replacement?
Move vehicles away from house, cover outdoor furniture, trim overhanging branches, and protect fragile landscaping. We'll handle attic clearing and property protection during work.Which roofing material lasts longest?
Metal and tile typically last 50+ years, while architectural shingles last 25-30 years. Choice depends on budget, home style, and Boise's climate conditions.Will replacement improve energy efficiency?
Yes, new materials and proper ventilation significantly improve insulation performance. Modern shingles reflect more heat, reducing cooling costs during Boise's hot summers.
