Why do residential roofing contractors say spring is an ideal time for a roof replacement? Here are the reasons why:
Demand for contractor services doesn’t start to go up until mid-spring, so there’s still a small window for scheduling an appointment on your preferred date. Plus, due to lower demand, there’s a chance you can get a great deal on labor and roofing materials.
Even if you can’t immediately fit in a roof replacement to your schedule, there are still plenty of reasons why you should replace your roof in spring. For one thing, contractors will be able to work more efficiently in the spring’s mild weather conditions and ensure the quality of the roof installation.
Putting off a roof replacement any longer means contractors will have to work under the scorching summer heat. Not to mention high temperatures and humidity can cause your shingles to slough and damage the roof replacement.
Speaking of summer, spring would be a good time to start preparing for the heating season. Aside from having your HVAC system and exterior checked, it’d be a good idea to add green features, like an energy-efficient roof, to help lower cooling costs. There are a wide variety of energy-efficient roofing materials that can insulate your interior and prevent heat transfer, such as reflective asphalt shingles or shingles with pigmented coatings. To learn more about your options, consult a roofing installation company.
Don’t forget to vet a contractor before hiring them. Less experienced contractors, after all, are more likely to make costly installation errors.
