In South Florida, shingles are one of the most commonly used roofing materials thanks to their relative affordability when compares to tile or metal. A new shingle roof will cost a little as half of what a metal roof would cost, making it a common choice for homebuilders who need to minimize costs and maximize their profit margins.
Because shingle roofs can last up to 25 years, it is important to know whether or not the complete roof replacement is warranted.
If your are unsure, it makes sense to have a reliable roofing company like Pro-Form roofing come to your home and assess the condition of your roof to see how many years it might have left. When we get on the roof, we will be able to see the potential origin of leaks as well as the current conditions of your shingles.
The first step is to look for signs of damage to your property as well as to the actual shingles themselves. It is necessary to get onto the roof and look at the exterior granules of the shingles to check to what extent that have worn away. The asphalt granules assist with protection and severely worn shingles look discolored which means their integrity is in question. You will also want to see if any shingles are pulled up from the deck. It is generally a good idea to inspect them right after a severe weather event so you can prevent any water from entering the home from subsequent rainstorms.
Leaks are the obvious sign from the interior of the home that something is wrong. Stains on the ceiling as well as down the walls or even at the base boards indicate a severe issue that needs to be addressed. If water is entering the home, it can cause mold after several weeks and this can spread throughout the home via the ac unit if left unchecked.
Typically, minor damage can be handled with a repair. Simple repairs are easy and relatively cheap but are only a temporary solution. Roofing repairs will fix acute problems, but if the damage is partially or full the result of aging, then repair costs will quickly escalate. For this reason, many insurance companies do not provide coverage for asphalt roofs past 15 years of age.
If you are seeing significant water damage to your home and your roof is past 15 years of age, there is a good chance you will need to replace it before matters get worse. Even high-quality shingle roofing will deteriorate faster beneath the relentless sun, moisture and wind elements your roof is exposed to in Miami.
Shingles roofs come in two types called architectural shingles and three-tab shingles. For more affordable asphalt shingles, three-tab will not last as long but will save you a good amount of money.
Considering there are options for asphalt shingle roofing, there are some things that you need to consider before making your final decision.
A typical shingle roof in Miami will cost from $6.00 to $7.50 a roof square depending on several factors. We discuss some of these factors below but you should ask your roofing contractor what is covered in their pricing to get a feel for whether or not you are getting a fair deal.
The amount of shingles necessary for your roof's coverage is determined by how much coverage each shingle has. For our preferred GAF shingles, 3 packages cover one single roof square. Usually, an amount of 10% is factored in by a roofing company in order to account for materials that are custom cut on-site.
As mentioned, 3-tab shingles are less expensive asphalt shingle roof type. There are color options that usually cost the same although some manufacturers can and do charge more for colors they consider custom. Dimensional shingles are more expensive because of the multiple layers they have.
Also, because many shingle roofs get damaged, previous leaks will result in the need for more wood to be replaced as the leak will lead to rotting of the decking. The more extensive the wood damage, the more wood will need to be replaced and the higher the cost per square foot.
Our GAF shingles have multiple colors and styles. Here are some color examples you can explore to customize your home.
These custom colors can be used to create a new look for your home with colors that you can coordinate with paint and window frame options that match your vision!
As mentioned, asphalt shingles can last as little as 15 years when subjected to the elements. If well maintained, 3-tab shingle roofing should last over 20 years depending on the manufacturer.
It's important to examine the details of the warranty and determine if it comes from the roofer or manufacturer. Warranties from roofers should be viewed as highly suspect as it is commonplace for roofing companies to go out of business in which case the warranty would be completely useless.
Our GAF shingles come with a limited 25-year warranty on shingles and accessories. The difference between
