While there is no good time to deal with a faulty roof, winter is probably one of the worst of times possible. Due to freezing temperatures and a regular snowfall, even the smallest leak can quickly turn into a much bigger problem.

Best thing you can do to keep your roof’s structure integrity in tact is to repair any damages as soon as possible. You may think that summer is a perfect time to fix your roof, but fall is just as good provided you act now.

In today’s post, we compiled a list of of smart decisions you can make for your roof before you start working on it. If your roof is in need of any fixes, please consider these things first:

5 Smart Roofer’s Decisions To Make Before Winter

 

1. Hire a professional roofer. A roofing contractor who you can trust will ensure getting your home in top notch shape for the holidays AND years to come!

2. Full replacement vs. a Touch-Up.  In our experience, a full replacement often equals better quality job, less stress and a long-term investment for a homeowner! Win win!

3. Choose dimensional shingles. A 3-tab roofs don’t last as long and add little if any visual appeal to your home.

4. Seal/coat your flat roof. It’s important to do it before heavy snow arrival! Your roof will look AND perform better!

5. Coordinate your roof with siding color choices. Coordinate your roof color choice well with the other colors in your home’s scheme, such as siding. If you can’t decide, ask professional contractors for a roofer advice.
