What affects the price

Several things change the final bill when you replace a roof. The total area of your home is the biggest factor, followed by the specific materials you choose, like asphalt shingles versus metal or tile. We also look at the pitch or slope of your roof and how many layers of old material need to be pulled off before we start. If there is hidden wood rot or damaged decking underneath, that adds to the labor and supplies required.

About this service

A steel roof is a high-strength metal system designed to last decades with minimal upkeep. It is an excellent choice if you live in an area prone to high winds, wildfires, or heavy snowfall. Steel is resistant to cracking, shrinking, and eroding over time. While the upfront investment is higher than traditional shingles, it often increases property value. The final price varies based on the gauge of steel and the finish you choose; exact pricing confirmed free on the call.

What is a 'bone dry' roofing system?

A 'bone dry' roofing system aims to keep your roof structure completely free from moisture. This involves using high-quality waterproof underlayment, proper sealing of all seams and penetrations, and ensuring adequate attic ventilation. The goal is to prevent water intrusion and the associated problems like mold and rot. The pros can explain how their installations achieve this for your Albuquerque home.

What are polycarbonate roof panels?

Polycarbonate roof panels are strong, lightweight plastic sheets that offer good light transmission and impact resistance. They are often used for applications like patio covers, carports, or greenhouses. While they offer some protection from the elements, they are not typically used as the primary roofing material for residential homes in Albuquerque due to differing durability and insulation needs compared to traditional roofing. The pros can discuss options.

What is single ply roofing membrane?

Single-ply roofing membrane refers to a single layer of waterproof material, such as TPO or EPDM, used for flat or low-slope roofs. These membranes are known for their durability, flexibility, and resistance to UV rays. They are commonly found on commercial buildings but can also be used on certain residential structures with flat roof sections. The pros can assess if this is a good choice for your home.
