Frequently Asked Questions
What should you know before repairing your roof?
Roofers work all year round, so there is no particular time you have to get it done. The most popular time of year for roof replacement is summer and fall, but wintertime works as well.
Roof repair is extremely important and essential if your roof is damaged. If you notice a small problem, repair it right away, do NOT ignore it. Roof repair is so important so the damage does not spread and worsen. If this happens, you may end up needing to pay for a roof replacement, instead of a simple repair. It is also essential that you get your roof repaired properly by a professional roofing company to ensure the job is done correctly and reliably.
Every roof is different in many factors, which makes it hard to estimate the exact cost without discussing all the details and inspecting the project. When it comes to house roofing, not all roof repairs are going to cost the same. There are multiple different factors that affect the price of each roofing project including size, style, shape, material, damage, accessibility, and extras on your roof. When it comes to a leaking roof the cost varies depending on the damage. You can check our FREE Roof Repair Estimator or simply give us a call.
The repairs can be completed in up to 48 hours.
Completing emergency repairs depends on the availability of our team and how busy our schedule is and our commitments. We will do our best to serve you as soon as possible. How quickly we can get to you is dependent on our team’s workload and commitment to customers.Usually, we will arrive at your home within 24 hours after you call to complete the emergency repairs.
There are multiple different materials that are used in roof repair and roof replacement. These materials include roof decking, roof flashing, underlayment, drip edge, ice and water shield, asphalt shingles, ridge capping, roof vents, and pipe boots. Roof decking is made of the wooden boards that make up the framing of your roof. Roof flashing is metal that is placed where your shingles press up against something such as a wall or chimneys. Underlayment is a felt material that is placed over your roof decking and provides extra protection. Drip edge is the type of metal flashing that gets installed at the edges of your roof to help control the flow of water away from your roofing components. Ice and water shield is a waterproof material that is placed to protect your roof from ice and water damage. Asphalt shingles are the top part of your roof that we see when we look at the roof. Ridge capping is trim that is installed where two slopes of a roof meet. Roof vents are vents that allow your attic to breathe properly by providing proper ventilation. Pipe boots are made of synthetic rubber and they are placed around your roof pipes to prevent leaks.
You should move or cover any valuables that can be damaged by water. This includes furniture, electronics and other valuables. Whenever there’s a leak, grab a bucket or other waterproof container and put it directly beneath the leak. If the ceiling is bulging, it’s likely holding water, so puncture the bubble to release the water into your bucket. Once you’ve got the situation under control, it’s time for you to get your roof repaired by a trusted roofing company.
If you notice that your roof is missing shingles, your home can be exposed to more damage. To prevent leaks from occurring, you will need to have your shingle roofing repaired by professional roofers like Nova Shield as soon as possible.
Freezing rain can cause significant damage to your shingle roofing. This is especially true if ice builds up in your gutter and prevents water from draining properly from your roof, you’re at much greater risk for potentially serious water damage to your home. During a freeze, water expands so the water that’s inside an already existing crack on your roof will expand, and also expand the crack. As well, some roofing materials will contract when it’s cold outside, which can make the problem worse and cause the shingles to crack and break. When you are in need of roof repair from freezing temperature damage, trust the expert roofers at Nova Shield.
Yes you can repair a roof without replacing it. Repairing a roof versus replacing it does depend on some factors though. If the damage is rather minor and the age of the roof is not too old, you can more than likely get away with simply repairing the damaged roof. If the roof is showing signs of age and severe problems/damage such as storm damage and major leaks, a replacement is more ideal.
Yes. It is possible to patch a hole in the roof instead of replacing the entire roof. The moment you notice there is a hole in your roof is when you should get it replaced. If you don’t, severe damage can develop on your roof, requiring a replacement instead of a repair. Never climb onto your roof without the proper safety precautions, and do not climb your roof when it is raining or if your roof is wet. Always hire a professional roofer when you need a roof repair. They will know how to get the job done correctly, reliably, and safely.
