When Is the Best Time of Year for Roof Repairs or Replacement?

As you can imagine, a lot of roof work is heavily dependent on the weather. Since we live in North Carolina, where the weather changes drastically from season to season, the type of roof work we take on varies depending on the time of year. Keep reading to learn more about roofing throughout the year, and when to call us to repair or replace the roof on your home or business:

• Winter: The colder the weather, the harder the work for a roofing installation company in New Bern, NC. Getting any work done on a snowy or icy roof is just plain dangerous. Additionally, dropping temperatures make sealants ineffective, and if shingles are too cold, they’ll crack. However, that doesn’t mean we won’t work in the winter. Emergency situations require fast action. If you need big repairs or a new roof put on, don’t hesitate to pick up the phone and give us a call.
• Spring: As the weather warms up, you’ll notice more and more roofing companies out and about performing work on homes and businesses. You’ll likely see a lot of companies performing minor repairs after spring hailstorms, or cleaning up fallen branches after a storm rolls through town. Generally speaking, springtime is one of the cheapest seasons to have roof work performed, because labor and material costs are still pretty low.
• Summer: Spring showers that delay roof work gradually come to a close in summer, which is when roofing season really starts to pick up! Sunny summer afternoons are usually great times for a roofing installation company in New Bern, NC to put on a new roof. However, if it gets too hot out, roofers might have to call it a day and head home early. If the temperature is too high, shingles won’t set right, and working when it’s too hot can be unsafe.
• Fall: Autumn is a roofer’s favorite time of the year to work. The days aren’t too hot, and we don’t see too many heavy rains that delay the roofing process. Having your roof replaced in the fall also leaves you with peace of mind knowing that your brand-new roof will be safe and sound through the winter. It’ll be able to withstand those harsh winter winds and make it through until spring without a scratch.

Don’t delay installation

Keep in mind that major repairs or new roof installation can’t always wait for Mother Nature to cooperate! While it may be inconvenient for a roofer to perform repairs in unpleasant weather, the work must be done. The longer you delay repairs or installation, the worse the damage will be, and the higher the risk of leaks or flooding in your home! Any reputable roofing company will take care of necessary repairs without hesitation.

If you need a new roof, be sure to give Dallas Cherry Roofing a call right away. We can get your new roof installed as quickly and efficiently as possible, so you can go on living your life as usual.
