What You Need to Know About Your Upcoming Roofing Project

If you have a new roofing project starting soon, it’s a good idea to learn more about the repair or replacement process. In this post, our experts at Safe Harbor Exteriors won’t bog you down with technical jargon. Instead, we’ll discuss what you need to know about your upcoming roofing project.

The Difference Between Cost and Value

Keep in mind that cheaper roofing materials don’t necessarily mean better – maybe better for the budget, but not always better in value. In fact, cheaper often means it has less value.

For example: the cost of replacing your wood shake roof might be high, but the value you get by replacing it with a more long-lasting and resilient material means you get more than what you paid for in the long run.

Preventive Maintenance Is Important

Proactive and preventive repair is vital to the long-term health of your roof. Common roofing problems, such as leaks, can get worse in just weeks. Often, you don’t notice these issues, which means you might end up finding out about this problem when it’s a bigger and more expensive concern.

Proactive and preventive maintenance allows you to spot these hidden roofing problems and patch them up when they’re still easier and more affordable to address. You also extend the life of your roof when you do this.

Always Work With a Local Roofer

Finally, make sure you work with a roofing contractor that has a proven reputation and presence in your local community. Local roofers like us are also properly licensed and insured, which means you’re protected from things out of your control when you work with us.

Reviews

We talked to multiple companies while deciding who to use for the exterior of our home. Safe Harbor was transparent, fast, and offered James Hardie siding compared to all the other companies only offering vinyl. Safe Harbor was much more affordable than many of the other companies, who just wanted as much money as possible. We are extremely happy with our siding, soffit, fascia, flashing, gutters, windows and the guarantee that comes with their work. If there was any more work to be performed, without a doubt, we would chose safe Harbor again.

Safe Harbor installed James Hardie siding, soffits, and gutters. The install was meticulous and our home was left cleaner than when the company showed up. The level of detail in the install was beyond expectation! We are so pleased with the quality of the work and the professionalism of the install team!
