Roof repairs are the best way to prolong the life of your roof before it will eventually require a complete roof replacement. With adequate roof repairs, your current roofing will be reinforced and remain protective for years to come. In this article, we will answer how much a Sugar Land roof repair costs and what factors warrant some roof repairs.

How Much Do Sugar Land Roof Repairs Cost

On average, roof repairs in the United States tend to cost around $904, but the cost typically ranges between $355 and $1,460, depending on how big or small the repair job is and what type of roofing needs to be repaired.

What Causes A Need For Sugar Land Roof Repairs?

Repairs are inevitable, and so is Sugar Land roof replacement, but it’s a good idea to know what factors may lead to repairs, so you can take preventative measures when possible and keep your roof damage from worsening. 

Aging

Roofs in Houston tend to last an average of 10-15 years, but as they age, they tend to weaken, which makes them less protective against any damage. In order to monitor how your roof holds as it ages, it’s a great idea to get a seasonal roof inspection, which we recommend twice a year. By getting seasonal roof inspections, our Houston roofers can spot the earlier signs of roof damage and act accordingly by performing preventive repairs that reinforce the rest of your roof.

Damaged Roof Valleys

Valleys serve a similar purpose as your gutter system. In fact, they are often considered part of your system because they guide water down the roof, into the gutters, and out through the downspouts. A damaged roof valley may cause mold and fungus build-up, which can occur when damp leaves blow in the wind during a rain shower and end up settling along the valley.

Wind Damage

A historic hurricane season is nearing its end, and even though we may have avoided direct impact, we still had hefty storms with accompanying winds a few times over the last few months and we have also endured many hurricanes over the years. 

Hurricane season winds are notorious for blowing around lightweight items such as lawn furniture, ornaments, and lawn decor. When tossed around, these items may puncture your roof, making your roof more prone to leaks.

Hurricane season officially ends on November 30, so you might be planning for some much-needed Tomball roof repairs afterward. It’s good that you’re planning early because, in doing so, this Houston roofing blog will help you make your roof repairs more affordable with the help of your homeowner’s insurance. Here’s how.

Understand Your Current Homeowner’s Insurance Policy

It may have been a long time since you first signed off on your insurance policy, so be sure to read it over so you understand your limitations for how much damage your insurance provider will cover. Generally speaking, if your roof is less than 10 years old–the minimum amount of time your roof should last in Houston–and has suffered from weather-related damage, you may be eligible for full coverage. 

Get A Professional Tomball Roof Inspection

Once you understand your policy, please get a roof inspection. We thoroughly inspect your roof in order to gain a full understanding of how much damage your roof has sustained and, with over 40 years of roofing experience, we may also be able to give you a good estimate on how much you may expect to pay for your Tomball roof repairs (if you don’t get complete coverage)

File A Claim With Your Homeowner’s Insurance

With our inspection complete, you can now contact your insurance company to file a claim for Tomball roof damage. 

Insurance Inspection

Once the Tomball roof damage claim has been filed, your insurance provider will send their adjuster in order to complete their own inspection so they can provide you with their own estimate of your coverage. We recommend you schedule the insurance adjuster on a day that our Tomball roofers can also be present. This way, we can ensure that the adjuster doesn’t miss anything. We want to ensure that Houston homeowners get the coverage they deserve.

Tomball Roof Repairs Covered By Insurance

Once your coverage has been confirmed, it’s time to contact us so we can complete your much-needed Tomball roof repairs. We look forward to replacing any weakened roof shingles and reinforcing your existing roofing so we can help you and your loved ones feel safe under your roof once again.

Fall is a windy time for us here in Houston, thanks to the many storms that take place in the gulf at this time of year. In this roofing article, we will talk about some Cypress wind damage roof repairs you might need and why.

How Does Wind Damage Your Cypress Roof?

Wind damage causes a lot of damage, but much of it boils down to debris. Strong winds, like those we experience in the hurricane season, are notorious for tossing around garbage, lawn decor, and other debris that has been lying around (twigs, leaves). This debris affects your roof in two ways:

Puncturing Your Roof Shingles

When debris punctures your roof shingles, this opening easily creates a space for rainwater to flow into your home. During a heavy downpour, water will inevitably make its way into your attic, and while it’s there, (before it makes its way out through a corner or a light fixture) it could soak into your roof insulation. Roofing insulation that has been damaged by water may become compromised, which could also lead to higher energy costs.

Clogged Gutters

Your gutter system is meant to collect rainwater so that it can flow away from your home through the downspouts. Wind tends to blow debris into the gutters, which clogs them to a point where they can’t do their job anymore. When this occurs, rainwater settles and creates a breeding ground for bacteria and mold while also soaking water back into your roof shingles, softening them, and rendering them useless in protecting your structure.

Missing Shingles

Though not caused by debris, winds during the hurricane season are strong enough to rip your shingles off of your Cypress roof, which leaves the underlying foundation exposed to accompanying rains. Heavy rains mean the underlying foundation is soaked and softened, which could cause mold, structure rotting, and severe leaking in your home that may go unnoticed until it’s too late.

Cypress Roof Repairs For Wind Damage

If your roof has sustained any of these consequences of Cypress roof wind damage, then you will likely need some repairs in order to replace the affected roof shingles and reinforce your existing roofing. In most cases, Cypress roof repairs will suffice, but in other cases, the damage is so severe that a Cypress roof replacement is in order. The best way to find out what your roof needs is to contact us for a free Cypress roof inspection. After the inspection, we will determine whether your home would benefit from Cypress roof repairs or Cypress roof replacement.
