How do I know if I need a roof replacement vs. a roof repair? Repair is typically appropriate for isolated damage affecting less than 30% of the roof surface — a few missing shingles, a small leak around a flashing, or localized storm damage. Replacement is the better investment when: the roof is 20+ years old, widespread granule loss is visible in gutters, multiple areas are leaking, shingles are curling or cracking across large sections, or a previous repair has left the decking wet or compromised.

How long do different roofing materials last? Asphalt 3-tab shingles: 15–20 years. Architectural (dimensional) asphalt shingles: 25–30 years. Metal roofing (standing seam): 40–70 years. Clay or concrete tile: 50+ years. Natural slate: 75–150 years. Lifespan varies significantly with climate, ventilation, and installation quality.

How much does a roof replacement cost? A typical 2,000 sq ft home with an architectural shingle roof runs $8,000–$18,000 installed. Steeper pitches, complex roof geometry (many valleys and hips), multiple layers to remove, or premium materials all increase the price. Metal roofs, tile, and slate are substantially more — often 2–5× the cost of asphalt shingles.

Does homeowners insurance cover roof replacement? Insurance generally covers replacement for sudden damage (hail, wind, falling debris). It typically does not cover gradual wear-and-tear or age-related failure. After a major storm, request a professional roof inspection — adjusters may miss damage that a roofing contractor will find and document for your claim.

How long does roof replacement take? Most residential roofs are completed in 1–3 days by an experienced crew. Very large homes, complex roof geometry, or premium material installs (tile, slate, metal) may take longer. Weather delays are common — most contractors work around the forecast.

How many roofing bids should I get? Get at least 3 bids. A significant price difference usually reflects different material quality, warranty terms, or the number of layers being removed. The lowest bid is not always the best value; look for a licensed, insured contractor with verifiable local references.

What is an ice and water shield, and do I need it? Ice and water shield is a self-adhering waterproof membrane installed on the first 2–6 feet of the eave (and in valleys) to protect against ice dams and wind-driven rain. Most building codes in cold-weather climates require it. In warmer climates, it's still a best practice for valley and eave protection.

What warranty should I expect? Reputable contractors offer two separate warranties: the manufacturer's product warranty (covering shingle defects — typically 30 years to lifetime depending on the product) and the contractor's workmanship warranty (covering installation — typically 5–10 years). Always get both in writing before signing.
