As much as we may want to ignore it or put it off for as long as we can, replacing your roof can raise your property value whether you’re looking to stay in your home or sell. A new roof can affect curb appeal and help when it’s time for appraisal.

How A New Roof Can Affect Curb Appeal

A roof is not just an important part of your home’s waterproofing and insulation system. It actually counts for over half of the visual exterior when someone is simply looking at your home’s exterior. For this reason, it is essential to your home’s overall appearance and appeal. To know if your roof needs just a few repairs or needs to be replaced entirely in this case, it depends on what type of roof you have and what condition it is currently in.

How A New Roof Can Help When It’s Time for Appraisal

An old roof can negatively affect your appraisal when it is time to sell. As we mentioned above a roof counts for over half of your home’s visual exterior, so an appraiser will look at it and evaluate the quality of the condition of the roof. Most likely, the home buyer would ask for a discount or ask for all repairs to be made to the roof before buying the home. When selling your home, having your roof replaced or repaired depends on the condition of your current roof, house market value in your area, and your choice of replacement roof. If you know your roof may at least need some repairs, be sure to immediately notify your real estate agent as it is important to fix the issue sooner rather than later.

It may seem easy to put off as long as possible, but having a roof in excellent condition is imperative. The raised property value is simply just a bonus! At Precise Exteriors, we’re here to help you raise the value of your home! Contact us for more information.

Any big house projects for homeowners can be somewhat intimidating, and roofing is no exception. Between the preparation tasks, specific industry terms, and ominous financial commitment, it can put some homeowners off from having a roofing contractor even take a look at their roof. At Precise Exteriors, we recommend hiring a local roofing contractor to assist you with all of your roofing needs.

Here are 4 reasons you should hire a local roofing contractor:

1. They are easier to find and vet.

Local contractors are most of the time easier to find due to word of mouth referrals. From this, they are also easier to vet than contractors that are not local or bigger companies.

1. They have better communication.

Local roofing contractors will keep in communication with you about your project. They will also fully explain the project to you and walk you through all the specific industry terms so you are well informed about the plans for your roof.

1. They don’t need to research local standards.

Local contractors will know the local requirements and building codes in your area, so they won’t need to research in order to comply with them. It takes out the guesswork when the contractor comes to your home to give you an estimate.

1. They support your local community.

Local contracting companies will support your community! They always put the community you belong to first.

If you’re in need of a local roofing contractor, we are here for you! We operate Monday through Friday from 7:30 AM to 5 PM, and we’re open until noon on Saturdays as well. We offer competitive rates, the best craftsmanship in the business, and friendly customer service that you can count on.
