If my roof was damaged, is my insurance company going to cover it?

Whether your insurance company will cover the damage to your roof depends on several factors, including the specific terms and conditions of your insurance policy and the cause of the damage. In most cases, if the damage is the result of a covered peril, such as a storm, fire, or falling tree, your insurance policy may provide coverage for the repair or replacement of the damaged roof.

It’s important to review your insurance policy and contact your insurance provider to understand the details of your coverage. They will be able to inform you about the specific coverage limits, deductibles, and any exclusions that may apply to your policy. Additionally, they can guide you through the claims process and provide the necessary information and documentation required for filing a claim.

When filing a claim, it is typically necessary to provide evidence of the damage, such as photographs or an inspection report from a professional roofing contractor. Insurance adjusters may also assess the damage themselves to determine the extent of coverage.

T.E.S. Construction works with insurance companies on a weekly basis and we fully understand the process. You can rest assured that we will help walk you through your roof repair or replacement from start to finish. 

How much does an asphalt shingle repair/replacement cost?

The cost of replacing a roof on an average house can vary depending on several factors, including the size and complexity of the roof, the materials used, the location, and the contractor you hire. It’s best to obtain specific quotes from local roofing contractors to get an accurate estimate for your particular situation.

However, as a rough guideline, the national average cost for a roof replacement in the United States ranges from $5,000 to $10,000. This estimate typically includes removing the old roof, installing new roofing materials (such as asphalt shingles, metal, or tiles), and any necessary repairs to the roof deck or structure. Keep in mind that this is just an average, and prices can vary significantly based on the factors mentioned earlier.

It’s essential to obtain multiple quotes from reputable roofing contractors in your area. They will assess your roof’s condition, provide detailed estimates, and guide you through the process. Additionally, some contractors offer financing options or work with insurance companies if your roof replacement is due to damage covered by insurance.

Remember that investing in high-quality materials and professional installation can help ensure the longevity and durability of your new roof, potentially saving you money in the long run.

Are Asphalt Shingles my best choice?

Using asphalt shingles for your roof offers several advantages that make them a popular choice among homeowners. Here are some reasons why you might consider using asphalt shingles:

Cost-Effective: Asphalt shingles are one of the most cost-effective roofing materials available. They offer a good balance between affordability and durability, making them a practical choice for many homeowners.

Wide Variety of Styles and Colors: Asphalt shingles come in a wide range of styles, colors, and textures. Whether you prefer a traditional look or want to achieve a more contemporary aesthetic, there are asphalt shingles available to suit your preferences and complement your home’s architectural style.

Easy Installation and Maintenance: Asphalt shingles are relatively lightweight and easy to install, which can help reduce labor costs and installation time. They also require minimal maintenance, typically only needing periodic inspections and basic cleaning to remove debris.

Durability: Asphalt shingles are designed to withstand various weather conditions, including wind, rain, and snow. High-quality asphalt shingles can provide excellent protection against UV rays and can have a long lifespan, typically ranging from 15 to 30 years or more, depending on the specific type and quality of the shingles.

Versatility: Asphalt shingles can be used on a wide range of roof designs and slopes. They are suitable for both steep and low-slope roofs, making them a versatile option for residential roofing applications.

Energy Efficiency: Some asphalt shingles are designed with energy-efficient features, such as reflective coatings or cool roof technology. These options can help reduce heat absorption, potentially lowering cooling costs in warmer climates.

Availability and Widespread Use: Asphalt shingles are widely available and commonly used, which means finding replacement shingles or matching existing ones can be easier compared to less common roofing materials.

While asphalt shingles have numerous benefits, it’s essential to consider factors such as climate, local building codes, and your specific needs when making a decision. The roofing experts at T.E.S. Construction can offer valuable guidance and help you choose the right roofing material for your home.

How long does a residential roof replacement take?

The duration of a residential roof replacement can vary depending on several factors, including the size and complexity of the roof, the weather conditions, and the efficiency of the roofing crew. Generally, a typical roof replacement for an average-sized residential home can take anywhere from one to three days.

Here is a rough breakdown of the timeline for a roof replacement:

Preparation and Tear-Off: The first day is usually dedicated to preparing the site and removing the old roof. This involves tearing off the existing shingles or roofing material, inspecting the roof deck for any damage, and making necessary repairs. The duration of this phase depends on the size of the roof and the number of layers that need to be removed.

Installation: Once the roof is prepared, the installation of the new roofing materials begins. This typically includes installing underlayment, flashing, and the new shingles or roofing material. The duration of this phase depends on the complexity of the roof design and the type of roofing material being installed.

Cleanup and Finishing Touches: After the new roof is installed, the crew will clean up the work area, removing any debris and ensuring the site is left in a tidy condition. They will also inspect the completed roof to ensure everything is in order, including proper installation and any necessary final touches.

It’s important to note that adverse weather conditions can extend the timeline for a roof replacement. If there is rain, high winds, or other unfavorable weather conditions, the roofing crew may need to pause work for safety reasons and resume when conditions improve.
