Roof Replacements in Florida, Georgia, and South Carolina

The cost of the new roof will depend on several factors, including the type of roof material and the level of workmanship warranty, size and complexity of the roof. In addition to this, the accumulated cost might also include costs of replacing the wood decking, installing new flashing, or changing components such as skylights.

Whatever type of property you own, it’s essential to replace the roof if the roofing material has outlived its lifespan. Other factors, such as weather conditions and frequency of roof repairs, should also be taken into account. The most common roof type is asphalt shingles and the average lifespan of an asphalt shingle roof is 15-20 years.

When you’re getting a new roof, you can expect any or all of the following things to get replaced:

• Decking if needed
• Underlayment
• Flashing if needed
• Ice and water shield
• Eave drip flashing
• Ridge caps
• Shingles, Tiles or Metal

Roof replacements are the best time to reconsider the color of the roofing materials. Depending on the design of the house, the material of the roof, weather conditions, and location, you should pick a color that would increase your property’s overall value. Curb appeal is one of the most important factors when we go to sell our home. The most popular color is black, it goes with everything and it is not considered what we call a personal color like blue, green or red. These personal colors may require finding someone who loves that specific color and is ok with it on the home they are about to buy.

• Asphalt Roof: 15-20 years
• Metal Roof: 50 years
• Tile Roof: 75 Years
