My roof has finally sprung a leak, what options do I have?

Once your roof has started to leak, your top priority is to stop any further damage to the interior of your home. In these cases you do need a roofing specialist immediately. 

• Repair – Repairing the roof of your home should be your first choice and is always ours. We choose this because the leak in your home’s roof could be something as simple as a piece of flashing which has come loose. Or, it could be a seam in the roofing material which has come undone due to heavy winds. These repairs can be performed for a very low cost. Other times roofing repairs are more complicated, and sections of the roof have to be removed and replaced. Again, it is always our first option to make repairs and to extend the life of your roof.
• Replacement – Roof replacement is a costly, and time consuming venture. However, there comes a time when the old roof just needs to be replaced. Asphalt roofing materials could have a lifespan of up to twenty years. Beyond that, problems will continue to arise. Other types of roofing systems do have longer lives, but they too will need to be replaced at some point. 1-800-Roofcare will always provide you with the most economical quote possible while using the very best materials available.

What choice of materials do I have?

Because of today’s innovations, technology, and worldwide transportation systems, homeowners today can choose from many different roofing materials and many different colors. Here are the three that are quite common in the greater Buffalo area:

• Shingles – Asphalt shingles are the most common type of roofing material used in upstate New York. This type of roofing material is readily available, relatively inexpensive, and easier to work with in all seasons of the year than some other materials. Shingles come in an assortment of colors and designs. The lifespan of asphalt shingles is usually around twenty years, depending upon weather conditions, and quality.
• Metal – Metal roofing is once again becoming popular with most metal roof systems having a lifespan of thirty years or more. Some copper roofing systems, if properly installed, could last hundreds of years. Metal roofing is usually made of steel, aluminum, or copper. You should always hire an experienced and well-trained roofing specialist, like 1-800-Roofcare, when installing this type of roofing.
• Tile – As you drive down the streets of some of the older neighborhoods, you will still see s slate tile roof from the 1800’s or early 1900’s. Slate tile roofing systems are still being put onto homes today, and are an option. This type of roof covering, because of its weight, needs to have a strong support system, so not all homes are constructed to support this kind of weight load.
