Roof Replacement Denton

A roof replacement is done in one of two ways.  The first is called a re-roof and  involves overlaying new roofing materials (shingles) on top of existing ones, potentially extending the lifespan of the roof. If your roof has been affected by a hailstorm, prompting concerns about damage, reach out to us for a complimentary roof inspection. Our experts will assess the condition of your roof and recommend the best course of action for your home.

Opting for a re-roof offers several advantages compared to a new roof installation. One key benefit is cost-effectiveness. By avoiding the removal and disposal of old roofing materials, you save on labor costs. Additionally, the existing decking beneath your current shingles remains intact, eliminating the need for replacement as might be necessary in a new roof installation. This not only reduces expenses but also saves time.

Furthermore, re-roofing contributes to the reinforcement of your roof, providing added protection against potential water damage. This method is quicker than opting for a completely new roof, and the new roofing material enhances the aesthetic appeal of your home.

Before proceeding with a re-roof for your residential property, consider certain factors. In many Denton, TX neighborhoods, Homeowners Associations (HOAs) regulate aspects of property maintenance. Typically, HOAs require approval for the shingle color before a re-roofing project begins. To avoid complications, ensure you submit a sample color to the HOA for approval in advance. This proactive step prevents any issues that may arise later regarding the chosen shingle color.

The other type of roof replacement is referred to as a new roof.  This is when all of the existing roofing material is removed down to the decking and reinstalled.  Sometimes, depending on the damage, the decking also has to be replaced.

Roof Repairs Denton

If you start to notice any of the following symptoms in your home, it is time to give Lekker Roofing a call:

• Water seepage in the attic following a storm
• Paint starting to peel or blister due to inadequate ventilation
• Discoloration on the walls, ceilings, and floorboards
• Harm to multiple roof shingles
• Moist, shadowy streaks running across the roof
• Deterioration in the sheathing
• Gutters tilting away from the roof

Although the indicators signaling the need for roof repair may be evident, determining the root cause of the issue might be unclear. Incorrect installation, a failure to perform regular maintenance, as well as external factors such as hail and strong winds during a storm, can contribute to roof damage. Additionally, various roofing issues in themselves can necessitate repairs.

Some of the most common causes of roof damage necessitating repairs are:

• Insufficient ventilation
• Seepage
• Flawed flashing
• Decaying wood
• Overhanging tree limbs
• Obstructed gutters
• Water-related damage
  

Why Timely Roof Repairs Are Crucial?

Neglecting necessary roof repairs can result in various detrimental consequences. One significant risk is an elevated susceptibility to leaks, potentially causing expensive water damage that can adversely affect your belongings and compromise the structural integrity of your Denton home.

However, there are additional, often overlooked repercussions. For instance, delaying roof repairs may contribute to a shortened lifespan for your HVAC systems. These systems are forced to work harder to compensate for the compromised insulation associated with a damaged roof.

The prolonged exposure to accumulated moisture poses another serious concern – the increased likelihood of mold and mildew growth. Such developments can significantly impact your family's health. To mitigate these potential risks, it is essential to address roofing issues proactively and promptly seek roofing repairs.

The array of residential shingles available today allows homeowners to choose roofing materials that align with their preferences, budget, and performance expectations. Understanding the different types of shingles and their ratings empowers homeowners to make informed decisions, ensuring that their chosen roofing solution meets both aesthetic and functional needs for years to come. Whether opting for traditional asphalt, elegant slate, or eco-friendly composite options, a well-informed choice sets the foundation for a durable and appealing roof.
