Although knowing the steps to roof replacement can help prepare you for the process, you may still have some questions. Here are some common questions asked by those who need a roof replacement:

Is There a Right Season for the Job?
You might be wondering when you should schedule your roof replacement. However, there is no one time to schedule your work. You should get the job done as soon as possible.

This is due to the fact that postponing a  roofers slidell replacement could cause more damage to your home. If you wait to replace it, you risk water damage and other complications. The sooner you schedule your replacement, the better.

How Long Does the Process Take?
As with any home repair, there’s no way to say for certain how long a roof replacement will take. The timeline depends on a variety of factors, including the material of the new roof, the type of roof, and the experience of the crew.

Typically, a wood shakes roof takes between three and four days. Synthetic slate could take slightly longer. Meanwhile, a concrete tile roof takes about eight or nine days. Because of its heavy weight, a natural slate roof also takes longer than traditional materials. It usually takes about six or seven days.

Asphalt shingles are by far the simplest to install, and only take about one or two days for installation. But the size of your home does directly affect the time it takes for your roof to be replaced.
