The initial answer to the question of roof leak repair cost is: "It depends." Weather damage and failing material can be minor or extreme. Sometimes, you won't know how bad the damage is until you’ve scheduled a roof inspection and your roofer has thoroughly examined all components for damage. An estimate is issued once the roofer sees the extent of the damage and what's needed for repair.
Modern roofs can last anywhere from 15 to 20 years without issue, but water and the elements have a way of eventually getting inside and creating problems. And, if a home’s roof is not maintained, cleaned and monitored, those issues can become unwelcome surprises in the middle of cold or wet months.
If there’s one home repair you should never put off, it’s fixing a leaking roof. It’s often easy to let a roof leak go. Out of sight, out of mind, right? And what are a few drips here and there going to amount to anyway?
There are few things worse than looking up at your home's ceiling and noticing unsightly brown spots or crumbling plaster. If this problem seems to have appeared out of nowhere, there's a good chance you could be dealing with roof rot.
Your roof is one of the most important elements of your house. It’s an expensive investment that keeps your family and possessions safe from wind, rain and UV rays. Throughout the year, your roof endures every change in the weather from the hot and dry Las Vegas heat to an occasional rainstorm. Keep your roof strong and secure by maintaining it year-round with these tips:
A roof is a vital component of your home. It protects you and your entire family against elements such as hailstorm, snow, sun, and wind. Over time, the roof deteriorates, leading to severe water damage as well as lowering your home’s resale value. While it's difficult to spot your home’s roofing problems, First Roofing & Insulation has a list of warning signs about your roofing system that you need to pay attention to.
Your roof is one of the most important investments in your home. Unfortunately, it is also one of the exterior areas of a house where you’re likely to encounter a problem. First Quality Roofing & Insulation has seen every type of roof damage, large and small. Though any sign of weakness or damage is cause for concern, we believe that you should especially keep a look out for these five common roofing problems.
You can't exactly lay a tarp over it; that's not a good look for a roof. And you can't exactly hose it down every night; that's not practical. But when you add up the ways that heat, ultraviolet rays and thermal shock from the sun conspire to wreak havoc on your roof, you can be forgiven for trying to brainstorm some clever solutions.
A far better solution: ensure that your roof is properly ventilated. It can be a tricky job, but it's one of the specialties of First Quality Roofing & Insulation. We know the benefits and how they can pay off – now and for many years in the future.
When caring for your roof you'll likely run into all kinds of issues along the way. Gunk and other debris will form, especially if you do not schedule regular roof maintenance. We recommend having your roof cleaned, maintained and inspected professionally at least once a year (if not twice, depending on your property).
You wouldn't be the only homeowner who assumes that summer storms and Las Vegas's infamous monsoons pose the biggest threat to your roof.
And it's true: roof damage can be caused from torrential rains, flash flooding and frequent lightning strikes. But when it comes to Enemy No. 1, make sure you have your shades on. The scorching Las Vegas sun poses the most serious threat to your roof in three ways – and First Quality Roofing & Insulation wants to ensure you know how to protect it in the first of this two-part series.
