Four Signs Your Cypress Roof Needs Repairs




Most homeowners take their roof for granted until a leak occurs causing an inconvenience or the homeowner notice a few shingles laying in the yard. As a Cypress roofing contractor for over a decade we receive dozens of calls asking us what’s the best remedy to solve the problem. While our team is always available for a free roof inspection, let us provide you with a little insights into rather your Cypress roof needs to be repaired or replaced.


Can Your Cypress Roof Be Repaired?


Before determining if you Cypress roof needs to be repaired or replaced, there are a few things you will want to ponder such as the age and material of your roof, if you’re planning to move within the next couple of years, and recent storms that have plagued our area.



Age Of Roof: Most Harris County residents have asphalt shingle roofs which are estimated to last around 20 years with proper maintenance and either determining factors such as the quality of the shingles and the Cypress roofing contractor who installed it. If the roof has not been neglected but is starting to have problems, then you may just need to have your Cypress roof repaired. However here are some signs that your roof is getting ready to expire:


· Shingles that are curling or balding

· Missing shingles

· Sagging roof

· Mold or moss is covering the roof

· Missing Granules



If you have spoken to a Cypress roofing contractor who has told you, the roof can not be repaired before you sign any contract make sure you get a second opinion. Since roof repairs are far more affordable there are shoddy contractors who will sell you a roof to pad their pocket rather you need a new roof or not.


Is This Your Permanent Residency?

If you have found your dream home and never plan to sale or relocate then you may want to do a little more then just repairing the roof, as repairs are like a band aid, sooner or later the roof will need to be replaced and one repair after another does add up. In the vent that a life altering change does occur (growing family, death, divorce) it can also be difficult to sale a home that has roof issues and on the flip side a new roof brings a hefty return on your investment. According to Zillow, the national average for an asphalt roof is $22,636 with a resale value of 15,247- folks that is a whopping 68.2% ROI, the money is coming back and for those who are selling it sure beats getting a lower appraisal value or having your home sit on the market.


Storm Damage Roof Repairs



Most people assume if they file a claim due to recent hail damage their rates will go through the roof, this is simply not the case. Another misconception is that hail damage is immediate, the truth is small damages that occur during a storm can result in lasting wear and tear such as removing those small granules from your roof that shield it from harmful UV rays. Without granules the sunlight can speed up roof damages, for this reason its always better to be safe rather then sorry and contact a Cypress roofing contractor after a storm for a free inspection, they can detail any roof repairs that are needed and walk with you throughout the clams process to help manage the claim and ensure you are family compensated.
