We get this question every week: should I fix the spot that is leaking, or is it time for a new roof? Most of the time the answer is straightforward once you look at the right things. Our production manager put together the five factors we walk through on every job, with real cost ranges and a decision guide that shows you where the line is. One thing we see a lot is homeowners who spend $5,000 to $7,000 on three or four separate repairs over a few years and still end up needing the full replacement. If the roof is telling you something, it is worth hearing it early.
