All homeowners dread roof problems. An issue with your roof has the potential to damage everything below and eat away at your savings, causing plenty of grief along the way. The best thing to keep in mind is that you are not completely powerless when something goes wrong with your roof. An emergency roof repair can hold the tide long enough to perform a roof repair or replacement that should last for years. Read more
We all like to think of our roofs as impenetrable barriers that are indestructible against all forces. Though most roofs are quite reliable, they are somewhat fallible. Roofs are especially vulnerable when harsh weather strikes and the roof repairs often vary quite widely in price. All sorts of different factors determine the final cost of each idiosyncratic roof repair. Everything from the home’s size to the style of roof, the type of shingle, the extent of the damage and other variables play important roles in the project’s cost.
Let’s delve deeper into this phenomenon to help homeowners understand why roof repair service costs are not uniform across the board. Here’s a look at the most common reasons for roof repair and associated costs in Texas. Read more
Texas gets its fair share of wind, rain, and hail. If your roof endures any sort of damage from these storms, do not hire any old roofer to perform the repairs. These storms can cause missing, torn, unsealed, and curled roofing shingles which are warning signs that you should address immediately. Often, missing shingles may lead to significant damage hidden underneath, which not only compromises the roofing system but could cause moisture to get into the interior.
If water flows down a wall or pours from around a ceiling fixture, you can detect the infiltration right away. Unfortunately, leaks caused by missing shingles may not be obvious or go unnoticed in obscure locations such as the attic.

As a brand new homeowner, your home is one of your biggest investments, and one of your biggest responsibilities. In order for the value of your home to increase, you will want to protect your investment with a well-thought-out maintenance routine. If you live in an area with a hot climate like Frisco, TX you will need to make sure your roof is well taken care of. While you probably won’t be spending every weekend washing the windows of this house you now own, you will probably want to come up with a plan for caring for your home so that it will remain an asset, rather than becoming a long-term liability.
This plan should not only include seasonal maintenance items, such as cleaning out gutters and trimming overhanging tree branches but should also include a plan for how you are going to cover the costs of proactive repairs before aging portions of your home start screaming for your attention.
Since one of the biggest threats to a home is moisture, keeping precipitation out of your home is of utmost importance. Your roof, of course, is your first line of defense against water getting into your home. Today, we would like to discuss three things new homeowners should know about their roofs.
The lifespan of a roof is typically 10 to 15 years. While home inspections are not required in most states, it is in a buyer’s best interest to have an inspection performed, because knowing the age and condition of a home’s roof can be helpful when putting in an offer for purchase. For example, if the existing roof is already nine years old, the buyer may be able to negotiate a few thousand dollars off of the asking price, due to the fact that the roof will soon need to be replaced. A home inspection will include details about the roof, including any soft spots that the inspector may notice. If the exact age of the roof is not recorded in the inspection, it is not out of line for a buyer to kindly, but firmly, press for this information.
It is in a new homeowner’s best interest to take care of issues with their roof as soon as deficiencies are noted. Procrastination is never an option, as a leaky roof will never repair itself. There are times, however, when it may appear that way. For example, if you should notice water dripping inside your home, and, during a rain shower several days later, notice that you no longer detect moisture in that same area, do not assume for a moment that the leak has been rectified. Sometimes, moisture from rain or another type of precipitation may be diverted from its point of entry to a second point of discovery.
It is also important to mention that just because you may notice water entering your residence at one location, does not necessarily mean that a leak exists in the roof directly above the area where moisture is detected. If moisture was able to get in once, and a repair has not been made, moisture is still able to gain entrance, even if its location in your home is seemingly unapparent.
If prior owners of your home recently had the roof replaced, that roof may be under a warranty that is transferable to future owners. If the roof is under a non-transferable warranty and a problem is noted before the sale is completed, the seller may be willing to use that warranty coverage to address any current concerns. If the warranty is transferable, be sure to obtain the necessary paperwork and information from the seller.
To learn more about replacing the roof on your home or for information about roof repair services, contact Elevated Roofing for your complimentary, no-obligation inspection.
