Is your roof old and failing? If so, you should consider replacing it this spring rather than delaying until the summer or later. In today’s post, V. Nanfito Roofing and Siding, your trusted local roofing contractor, shares the key reasons why spring is the best season to invest in a roof replacement:
Mild Weather
Fair weather is conducive to outside work. Winter brings freezing temperatures and snowstorms that can cause significant delays with outdoor home improvement projects like roof replacement. Summer is better than winter for installing a new roof, but bear in mind that your new roof will provide enhanced energy efficiency and better protection from the elements. It’s better to have your new system in place before the punishing heat and strong storms of summer arrive.
Fast Scheduling
While spring isn’t the slowest season for roofers, it’s slower than summer. Scheduling your roof repair or replacement project is easier in the spring. If you procrastinate the job until late summer, you might have to wait a month or more to schedule your project with a reliable roofer.
Increased Energy Efficiency
Spring roof replacement is an excellent way to prepare your home for the summer heat. If you buy roofing products certified by ENERGY STAR®, like GAF’s Timberline® Cool Series® Shingles, your new roof can help reduce your reliance on your air conditioner, saving you money on energy in the summer.
In addition, getting a new roofing system means improving your attic ventilation. With better air circulation, you can minimize heat buildup in your home’s hottest areas and expel excessive moisture.
More Funds
Many Americans receive tax refunds in spring. Why not take advantage of this extra cash by bolstering your home’s protection, beauty and energy efficiency with a roof replacement?
