What can you expect on the day of your roof replacement?

Now that you are ready for your roof replacement and wondering if you should stay home from work or not?  That's a question we get a lot at Charlotte Ace Roofing before we start a project.

One of the first questions customers ask after they sign their roofing agreement is if they should stay home or go to work. The answer to that question is pretty simple, but there are a couple of things you need to know about staying home during your roof replacement.  

The crew at Charlotte Ace Roofing has been replacing roofs in the Charlotte area for a few years now. We know what it takes to give you a roof that gives you peace of mind. We understand investing in a roof replacement can be a vert stressful time.  Picking the right roofing contractor in Charlotte is not an easy task.

At Charlotte Ace Roofing we are always looking to answer any questions to make this journey as stress-free as possible, I’m going to explain what you can expect if you choose to stay home during your roof replacement. 

Should I stay home for my roof replacement?

The truth is, it’s totally up to you if you want to stay home during your roof replacement. Maybe you want to ensure your roof is being properly installed or you want to be there to ask your contractor questions if they come up or if you see something that concerns you.

Whatever the reason, if you decide to stay home, your contractor shouldn’t have a problem with it. But the real question is if you should stay home. Even though it’s your choice, any local reputable roofing contractor will recommend you vacate your home whenever they’re working on your roof. 

See below why your roofing contractor will suggest you leave on the day of your roof replacement. 

4 things to keep in mind if you decide to stay home during a roof replacement

So, a contractor recommends you leave during your roof replacement, but why? There are 4 things you need to be aware of if you want to stay home during a roof replacement. 

Between the noise and the possibility your car may get blocked in, you may change your mind about staying home. 

1. Roof replacements are very loud and annoying

If you’ve never been in your home when someone is hammering nails on your roof, you don’t realize how loud your roof replacement will be. It’s hard to stay inside your home with the constant banging. 

If you have a two-story house, then the banging will be a little muffled on the first floor. But no matter where you are in your home, it’s going to be extremely aggravating to hear the installers hammer nails until the sun goes down. 

2. Think about how your pets may react to the noise of a roof replacement 

You also have to consider your pets. From what I’ve heard from customers, cats seem to be more affected by the noise than dogs. I’ve had customers who said they didn’t see their cat for a week after a roof replacement.... That is due to the noise during the roofing install.

If you have a dog that’s bothered by thunderstorms then chances are they’re not going to like the loud pounding and banging. Don’t drive your pets crazy, it's better to find somewhere they can go until your roof replacement is completed. 

3. Stay out of the way of the installers during your roof replacement

When you hire an experienced roofing contractor to replace your roof, you are trusting they know how to do their job. So it’s important to consider you safety -that you stay out of the way as much as possible. 

If you stay home during your roof replacement, you have to be very careful coming out of your home. When your old roof is torn off, the crew can’t see over the edge of the roof to know if you or someone else is walking around. 

Your contractor won’t throw all the roofing debris by your door or other entrances to your home. However, if you stand by or near the gutter line there’s a possibility you could be hit with some shingles. 

Your roofing contractor will let you know where they’re tearing off so you know what areas to avoid for your safety.

4. Don’t let your vehicles get blocked in before the roof replacement begins

Something else you need to consider is your cars. One of the first things a contractor does when they arrive at your home is to ensure they aren’t blocking any of your cars in. But if you decided to stay home during your replacement and you didn’t move your car because you didn’t expect to go anywhere, what happens if you need to leave your house?

TOP 10 COMMON ROOFING QUESTIONS

Chimney Flashing Roof Repair

Top 10 Common Roofing Questions:

We are Charlotte Ace Roofing a Roofing Contractor in Charlotte NC specializing in roof repair, replacement and all kinds of storm damage. Understanding your roof can help you save time and a lot of money when it comes to repairs and replacement. Below are 10 common roofing questions asked by homeowners.

1. How Long Should My Roof Last?

The life expectancy of your roof depends on several factors:

  • Material
  • Shingle thickness
  • Climate and weather conditions
  • Proper installation

Traditional Owens Corning asphalt shingle roofs typically last between 15 and 25 years, while slate, tile, and copper roofs may last upwards of 50. In regions that experience severe weather conditions such as high winds, hail and significant rainfall, roofs generally have shorter life expectancies.

2. Does My Homeowner’s Insurance Cover My Roof Damage?

Yes, most homeowner’s insurance covers structural damage caused by hail, wind, fire, and falling trees. This coverage includes your roof. Depending on your policy, coverage may include repair or replacement and may require you to pay a deductible. Some policies also can include exclusions for certain conditions.

3. Does a Leaky Roof Need to Be Completely Replaced or Not?

Not all roof leaks require a complete roof replacement, whether you repair or replace your roof likely depends on the damage. On a relatively new roof, a few damaged or missing shingles may be cost-effective to repair. If the damage is extensive and involves an older roof or multiple layers of roofing materials, a full replacement is likely needed.

4. How Much Does a New Roof Cost?

This is a very tricky question. The cost of a new roof in Charlotte NC depends on its size and shape and the type of materials needed. Chimneys and skylights will also affect the overall price of roofing. Be sure to factor in disposal costs for your old roof as there is a charge for the dumpster and disposal of used shingles.

Most roofing companies offer free, no-obligation roof inspections.

5. What Are the Early Signs of a Failing Roof?

Many signs of a failing roof are obvious and can easily be spotted during a visual inspection from the ground. Warning signs of a failing roof are:

  • Loose or missing shingles
  • Obvious sagging
  • Exposed nail heads
  • Curled, blistering shingles or cracked shingles
  • Granules or debris inside your gutters
  • Missing or damaged flashing
  • Higher-than-average heating and cooler bills
  • Dark or stained areas
  • Water leaks in your top-floor ceilings

If your home has an asphalt shingle roof that’s more than 20 years old, it most likely needs to be replaced even if it is not showing visual signs of failure.

6. Why Is My Roof Stained?

In Charlotte NC area it’s common to have stains on roofs. Black and green stains are evidence of algae, lichens, or moss. They’re common, particularly in wet and humid climates, and should be cleaned regularly to avoid the mold, rot, and water damage that they can cause.

7. How Long Does a Roof Installation Take?

The roof installation process can range from a day to a few days depending on the size and shape of your roof, the selected materials, and the size of the roofer’s crew. A roofing contractor should be able to provide a comprehensive time line, although Inclement weather may delay installation. Charlotte Ace Roofing usually does not schedule work if there is more than 30% chance of rain on any given day.

8. What Is Flashing?

Flashing is a layer of waterproof material that’s placed over joints in the roof. It keeps water from seeping into the vulnerable valleys of your roof as well as gaps around chimneys, skylights, and pipes.

9. What Re-roofing Options Are Available?

If it’s time to put on a new roof, the good news is that you have options. If you’re re-roofing your home for the first time, a new roof may be installed directly over the original materials, saving you time and money.

Shingles are available in a variety of materials and colors, and your choice may depend on aesthetic preferences, local climate conditions, and your budget.

10. How Can I Find a Reliable, Trustworthy Roofing Contractor?

Your roof is vital to ensuring the integrity of your home and the safety of your family. This is why roofs should be inspected every few years. Make sure the contractor you choose is responds to your questions and concerns in a timely fashion. Call the roofing professionals at Charlotte Ace Roofing for more in-depth answers to all your roofing questions.

CAN I IGNORE HAIL DAMAGE ON MY ROOF?

Storm damage, roof shingle damage, hail damage, storm, roof repair

Consequences of Ignoring Hail Damaged Roof

Hail, is one of Mother Nature’s wonders, is a serious threat to your home. These “ice balls” can do significant damage to your roof during a hailstorm. However, hail damage can get worse if you delay roofing repairs, like many homeowners who try to save on repair costs.

A Hail Damaged Roof Can Damage Shingles

The shingles on your roof form an elaborate system that protects your home from moisture. Installed at an angle and sealed to repel moisture, your roof shingles are one of many barriers safeguarding your home. However, when hail strikes your roof, these dense, high-velocity balls of ice can displace your shingles. Once a shingle is displaced, the seal is broken, and water could get into your home. If you ignore this roof damage, the leaking roof could cause mold to grow in your home, creating more problems which can get very costly.

A Hail Damaged Roof Allows Warm Air to Escape

A missing or cracked shingle isn’t just a problem when it comes to keeping water out. If a shingle is no longer on your roof, then it can’t prevent your warm air from escaping from the roof of your home. As the warm air leaves, you’ll find cool air will quickly replace it and make your home feel drafty. Due to this, you’ll have to use more heat than usual to maintain a comfortable temperature inside.

What to Do If You Suspect Your Roof Is Damaged by Hail..

When it comes to hail damage, obviously, ignoring it isn’t an option. The sooner you take action, the less damage you’ll have to contend with when you finally get it fixed.

ROOF DAMAGE FROM HURRICANE WIND

Wind damage, storm damage, roof damage, hail damage, roof shingle damage
Torn shingle, missing shingle, free roof, charlotte roofing
Hurricane season in the United States starts June 1st and lasts through November 30th of each year. Although a hurricane can happen at any time during this period, roofs in Charlotte NC can get damage from heavy wind and hail.  Charlotte area is likely to get storm damage in August through September.

Hurricanes can bring significant storm damage to your home. One of the things most impacted by these severe storms in Charlotte NC is your roof, siding, gutters and sometimes window screens.

But how do hurricanes affect your roof?  What can be done to minimize roof storm damage? Continue reading to learn everything you need to know….

Weather Elements That Occur During a Hurricane in Charlotte NC

Hurricanes and strong windstorms are a natural weather phenomenon that can strike any area in the United States including Charlotte area. Typically, the eastern portion of the U.S. is prone to hurricanes, as are coastal areas. This doesn’t mean a hurricane, or the remnants of one, can’t cause damage elsewhere.

Many severe weather elements can occur during a hurricane. Since hurricanes are unpredictable, there are only two elements you can count on happening during one – high winds and heavy rain. It’s also possible for lightning strikes and hail to occur.

Any of these elements have the potential to cause significant damage to your roof on their own. When these severe weather elements work together, like in a hurricane, the damage tends to be a lot worse. Damage inflicted by high winds, for example, can worsen tenfold when exposed to heavy rains.  It’s important to have your roof inspected by a professional if you suspect storm roof damage in Charlotte NC area.

How High Winds Affect Your Roof

Hurricanes are classified as having sustained winds of at least 74 miles per hour. Anything weaker is classified as a tropical storm. Wind gusts during even a category one hurricane could, at times, reach 150 miles per hour or more.

These strong winds can directly impact your roof by ripping off shingles, roof tiles, and even the roof deck. Gutters can be pulled from the side of your roof, causing further damage to nearby areas.

High winds can also indirectly affect your roof. Tree limbs, flying objects, and smaller debris can land on your roof. The impact from these foreign objects can cause shingles and tiles to fall away, or even create holes through your roof.

How Heavy Rains Affect Your Roof

Heavy rain in Charlotte NC can cause excessive wear and tear on your roof. It can loosen shingles and quickly “age” a roof, so it needs replacement sooner than would otherwise be necessary.  Heavy rains and wind will 100% shorten the lifespan of your roof.
The real problem with heavy rain during hurricanes is when the roof has already sustained damage. When an already damaged roof is exposed to heavy rains, the roofing structure can suffer severe water damage. Water can also damage your attic and water ill eventually leak inside your home.

How Hail Affects Your Roof in Charlotte NC

Hail doesn’t occur with all hurricanes, but the risk of it does exist. The problem with hail is that there isn’t much you can do to prevent it from damaging your roof.  It’s important to report hail damage to your insurance right away.
Once hail has created holes in your roof, the only thing you can do is replace it or repair it. If hail is small and infrequent, it may only loosen shingles or chip away at the outer layers of your roofing structure which will shorten the life expectancy of your roof.  Remember, if you fail to report damage to your roof within reasonable time, your insurance may deny your damage claim and will blame the homeowner for being negligent for not reporting damage in time.

How Lightning Strikes Affect Your Roof

Although the risk of lightning directly striking your roof is slim, there is the possibility that it will happen during a hurricane. Worst case scenario, a lightning strike can cause a fire to erupt. This is incredibly rare, however, no matter what you see in the movies.
What’s most likely to happen when lightning strikes your roof is it’ll puncture a hole through it. This hole can even go directly through the attic flooring and damage your first or second floor. Once a hole has been made, the interior of your home is left open to water damage.
Lightning strikes can also cause burning or searing of roofing elements. An intense lightning strike can tear gutters and shingles off the roof.

Minimizing Roof Storm Damage Due to Hurricanes

No matter what precautions you take, there always exists the possibility your roof will become damaged during a strong storm like a hurricane. The fact that tornadoes can also spawn during these massive windstorms further increases the risk of damage.
A roof in good condition is generally less likely to take severe damage, however. If you live in an area prone to hurricanes or other forms of severe weather, you should have an annual roof inspection done before the season for storms has come.
These roofing inspections should be done by a professional. A roofing contractor such as Charlotte Ace Roofing will look at your tiles and use specialized equipment to check for weak spots in your roof’s foundation. If anything is found to be wrong, you can use the same contractor to fix your roof.
If damage does occur during a storm, you’ll want to have it taken care of as soon as possible. Left unchecked, even minor damage can turn into a severe problem. A professional roofing expert can help you determine whether your damage can be repaired or whether the roof will need replacement.

CLOGGED GUTTERS CAN DAMAGE YOUR ROOF

gutter maintenance, charlotte ace roofing

CLOGGED GUTTERS CAN DAMAGE YOUR ROOF

Gutter cleaning is an easy task that you may not get around to very often. It’s not that you don’t know they need cleaning, it’s just that you have other projects to do around the house. Even if you’re busy, it’s important that you clean your gutters at least once a year, hire a local roofing contractor, or install lower-maintenance gutters, because the water that spills over clogged gutters can damage your home’s roof.

The Job of a Gutter

Gutters aren’t just there to make the bottom of your roof look good. A gutter’s job is to divert water during rain. Gutters collect water from your roof and move in toward the ground, simply placing it into a drain or allowing it to flow out farther into the yard away from your house. Imagine what would happen to your lower roofs if you didn’t have gutters. Water would cascade down your top roof and land on the lower roof areas and on the ground. The same thing happens when you have clogged gutters. Some or all of the water that was supposed to be diverted into a drain moves over the side of the gutter and down onto the ground instead.

What Happens When Gutters Don’t Do Their Job?

When gutters don’t do their job, many problems can arise. Roof Damage and home foundation concerns can arise when a lot of water falls near the base of the house. If the land doesn’t slope away from the house, water can pool around the foundation. This can lead to cracked foundations, as water moves into tiny cracks.

Pooling water near the base of your home can cause a larger problem of shifting walls and foundation. A giant puddle of water presses against your walls, causing them to move and crack. 

The Solution to Cluttered Gutters

There are many simple solutions that can keep your gutters flowing clean and clear this year and every year. You can remove sources of debris by not planting trees too close building. You can ensure that your gutters work with the rest of your roofing system by maintaining that roof. The homeowner can hire a local roofing company to clean your gutters. When you install a gutter guard, you add a protective cover to your gutters. This cover moves water into the gutter and sheds debris so that your gutters will never clog again.

From roofing troubles to foundation troubles to landscape erosion, a cluttered gutter can cause innumerable problems in and around your home and garden. Make gutter cleaning easy this year. Learn more about Gutter Service and Installation and contact us today to turn clogged gutters into an easy, low-maintenance drainage system for your home. It may very well extend the life or your roof!
