Don’t let this spring be a burden to you and your roof. If you know what to look for you can prevent further damage to your already potentially fragile roof.

How to Tell If You Should Repair or Replace Your Roof

, ,

Your residential roofing system is your home’s first line of defense against the elements. As such, it’s vital that it always remains in good condition. To that end, it’s important to address damage promptly, whether through repairs or replacement. 

Here are the factors that can help you decide if you should have your roof repaired or replaced.

The Benefits of a Well-Maintained Roof

,

Routine roof maintenance may seem like an unnecessary expense, but it will actually save you money in the long run. Being proactive about roof maintenance lets you identify and repair minor problems before they become major ones. In doing so, it prolongs the service life of your roof.

In today’s post, Sprague Construction Roofing, the leading roofing contractor in the area, discusses the wide-ranging benefits of roof maintenance:

Better Protection

Your roof is your home’s primary shield against the element. Over the course of the year, it takes a beating from extreme heat and cold, rain, snow, and heavy winds. Roof maintenance helps ensure that your roof is always up to the task of protecting your home from the elements.

At Sprague Construction Roofing, we make sure that your residential roofing system is completely damage-free with a thorough inspection. We’ll assess your roof’s condition to uncover any issues and make the necessary fixes. If we determine that your roof is beyond repair, we’ll offer you a complete replacement instead.

More Savings

Investing in proper maintenance is cost efficient. By solving minor problems before they escalate, you avoid extensive damage. This also helps ensure that your home is protected from moisture issues that could lead to higher energy bills.

Increased Curb Appeal

Your roof is a prominent component of your home’s façade. When it’s free from dirt, algae, and damaged shingles, it can amp up your home’s curb appeal and value. As an expert contractor, we have the proper tools and skills to ensure your roof remains in pristine condition throughout the year.

4 Things You Should Expect During a Home Remodel

,

If it’s your first time undertaking a full-blown home remodel, you may be nervous about the sheer scope of the project. Fortunately, you can simplify the process by anticipating potential roadblocks and proactively creating plans to address them. In today’s post, Sprague Roofing shares four things to plan for in a remodeling project:

1. Unforeseen Repairs

The process of replacing your roof may reveal damage to the underlayment that needs to be repaired before the actual replacement project can commence. This is something that you can’t skip, since a roof structure that’s in disrepair translates to a roof that has a shorter operating life span. We recommend including roof repair work in your budget. It may not be necessary, but better safe than sorry.

2. Plenty of Dust

Many remodeling projects result in a lot of dust around the home, so it’s a good idea to do some control work on your living spaces. We suggest covering your furniture before the remodeling project starts, and blocking your warm and cold-air returns to prevent the dust from filtering to other parts of your home.

3. Don’t Forget the Auxiliary Components

It’s easy to forget about the auxiliary parts of your home, such as your gutters. Make gutter repair a part of your remodeling project as your gutters play a vital role in protecting your home from water intrusion. The last thing you want is water spilling from your gutters due to a blockage.

4. Hire a Professional

It’s always the smarter choice to hire a professional to do your home remodeling projects. Not only do they have years of experience under their belt, but they can also source higher quality materials at better prices. Accuracy and peace of mind are what you get when you work with an experienced professional remodeling company.

Things to Look for When Choosing a Roofer

, ,

With so many roofers advertising their services, how do you know which one would be the best for your particular job? Whether you’re planning a residential or commercial roofing project, read on for some helpful tips from Sprague Construction Roofing on how to pick the best contractor for your job:

Ask for Proof of Insurance

The most important documentation your roofer should have besides their license is worker’s compensation and liability insurance. Ask to see the certificates and call their insurance carrier to validate their claim. This helps ensure that the service being provided to you is done by a qualified roofer.

Work With a Local Contractor

One benefit of working with a local roofing contractor like Sprague Construction Roofing is that they have an established reputation in the community. This means we are committed to providing high-quality work for every project. You also benefit from face-to-face communication, which helps us understand your needs and wants more clearly, resulting in better results.

Pay for Quality

Many contractors will offer you a bid lower than the last one, but it’s important not to base your decision on price alone. At Sprague Construction Roofing, we use only the very best roofing materials and products to provide superior roofing for your home.

Whether you are investing in commercial or residential roofing, we have the skills and experience to deliver outstanding solutions. Why choose a roof with a cheap upfront price only to spend far more on maintenance and repairs later? We also back our services with strong roofing warranties for your peace of mind.

We serve communities in Billings, MT. Start your roof replacement project today and call us at (406) 200-9080.

When Should You Get a New Roof?

, ,

Can you get by with your existing roof for a few more years, or do you need to invest in a replacement now? Here, Sprague Construction Roofing, your premier roofing contractor, shares the top indicators that mean it’s time to bite the bullet and have your roof replaced:

 

Your Roof Is Nearing the End of Its Service Life

Varying roofing materials have different service lives. Asphalt shingle roofs, one of the most popular roofing choices, typically last between 20 to 30 years. If your roof is nearing the end of its service life, we recommend calling an expert like Sprague Construction Roofing for an inspection. We can identify problem areas and weak spots on your roof and determine whether it’s time for a replacement or if you can get by with repairs.

Your Shingles are Damaged or Missing

Your shingles can tell you a lot about your roof’s condition. If you see any areas with cracked or curling shingles, then that’s a sign of sun and wind damage on your roof. Ignoring such problems can lead to bigger, costlier issues, such as leaks and water damage. Missing shingles are another telltale sign you should look for. These present an opening for water to enter your home.

If you notice damaged or missing shingles, call Sprague Construction Roofing for the necessary repairs. We can help you preserve your residential roofing system’s beauty and condition.

There Are Granules on Your Roof

A few granules in your gutters are nothing to worry about if your roof is new. If your roof is 10 years or older, on the other hand, then you have a problem. These granules are responsible for keeping the sun off your asphalt roof. Once they fall off, your shingles will start taking in more damage and deteriorate more quickly. Our team at Sprague Roofing Construction can provide a top-notch replacement.

Sprague Construction Roofing is your go-to contractor for all your residential and commercial roofing needs. We specially train our team to ensure that they can provide the best possible solutions for your roofing problems. We serve Billings, MT, and the surrounding areas.
