As is the case with all parts of your home, roofs need regular maintenance and repair to stay in top form, and sometimes must be replaced entirely. Unlike many other parts of a home, roofing work truly requires skilled professionals because it is so highly specialized and potentially dangerous. Here at 1-800-Roofcare, we are dedicated to providing you with the roof work that you need. We are an association of independent roof care companies from across the nation, including here in Fort Wayne. Our members are all pre-qualified prior to joining to make sure that they meet all Indiana regulations with regard to licensing and insurance. We only want a select few to join, so we limit our membership to less than 5% of all licensed roof repair providers in the United States. By operating through local affiliates, 1-800-Roofcare is able to provide a standard level of service through local experts in the unique environmental, economic, and regulatory conditions found in Fort Wayne.
Our members are capable of meeting all of your roof care needs. Among the many services we provide are:
The contractors at 1-800-Roofcare recommend that your roof be inspected at least twice a year. Many times, these inspections will lead to no further work being necessary. It is only when a problem such as a leak or water damaged wood is discovered that work must be done. Regular inspections allow damage to be discovered and repaired before it becomes a major problem that causes further damage to the roof. In turn, this extends the life expectancy of the roof, potentially by several years. Periodically, roof damage may occur between inspections and require repair as well.
Unfortunately, maintenance can only do so much for most common roofing materials, and almost all roofs will need to be replaced eventually. The time in between replacement varies between different materials. Asphalt shingles and metal roofs typically will last anywhere from 20 to 40 years, while architectural and wood shingles may last up to 50. Concrete and clay tiles last even longer, potentially 100 years if properly maintained. Slate tiles are too heavy for many roofs to support and quite expensive, but they can potentially last indefinitely without needing replacement. Other factors influence roof life expectancy as well. Prolonged exposure to heat is hard on roofing materials, meaning that several hot years in a row can speed up the replacement timeline. Shade from tall trees can help extend a roofs lifespan, but leaves, branches, and especially pine needles collecting on top can shorten it. 1-800-Roofcare contractors will be able to advise you on the benefits and risks associated with selecting different roofing materials on your home, based on the surrounding environment and the climate of Fort Wayne.
Roofs require specialist knowledge because they are so intricate and in many ways tricky. If you would like to know more about the condition of your roof and how much it will cost to make any repairs, 1-800-Roofcare can provide free repair quotes. That means that you get the information about necessary repairs and potential costs so you can make a valid decision.
