St Paul Park Roofing Company Discusses Roof Replacement

ST PAUL PARK, Minn. - April 2, 2019 - PRLog -- Eastern Roofing & Siding, a roofing contractor serving the Twin Cities area, wants to prepare homeowners for spring roof repair or replacement. This is a great time of year to have roofing work done. Following winter, many homeowners may have issues with their home's roof, such as missing shingles or leaks.

It's important for homeowners to know when they need roof repair or replacement. Some signs include missing, curling or cracked shingles; leaks that may be detected as water stains on interior walls or ceilings; rotten soffit or fascia; and excessive granules accumulating in downspouts and gutters. Any or all of these may indicate roof repair is needed. Also, if it's been more than 20 years since the roof was replaced, it may be time to get it done. Most roofing materials only last around 20 years.

Spring is an ideal time for roof replacement. Roofs can really take a beating during winter with frigid temperatures and frequent snowfalls. Spring offers a reprieve, as roofs begin to dry and weather warms. This is a safer and more effective time for roofers to work as well.

For homeowners who suspect they need a roof replacement, they should have a roofing contractor like Eastern Roofing & Siding inspect the roof. They will let the homeowner know their expert opinion on what work needs to be done. Most companies also offer free estimates.

The cost of a roof replacement depends on many factors, including the size, type of materials used, amount of damage to the roof, etc. It's wise to get a few estimates to get an accurate idea of what the replacement should cost. The cheapest option is not always the best! Take into account what each contractor provides and ask for references or examples of their work to get an idea of their quality.

Depending on the size of the roofing crew hired, a roof replacement should only take a few days to a week. The exact time will depend again on the size of the roof, what types of materials are being used and how much extra work is involved, like going around chimneys or dormers.

It's usually wise for homeowners to contact roofing contractors early in the year. Many companies will be scheduled months in advance, and the weather can push things back even more. When a homeowner knows a roof replacement is needed, it's not something that should be delayed. This can only lead to further damage that can cost more to fix.
