How do I know when I need a new roof?

While it’s best to call a professional to assess your roof’s condition, there are a few signs that you can look for. If you see curled shingles, missing shingles, moss growth, or granules in your gutters, you may need a new roof. When you notice these, contact the team at Keyzer Roofing to schedule a visit.

Where do I find a trustworthy roof contractor?

Above all else, work locally! A local roofer will have a local phone number, a local address, and a reputation in the area. Be sure to check their online reviews and ask to see their insurance and licenses. Even better, ask if they subcontract their work or if they use full-time roofing professionals.

Will insurance cover my roof replacement?

Without details, it’s impossible to know if insurance will cover your roof replacement. Usually, insurance will cover roof damage that was caused by extreme weather events, such as storms, winds, or tornados. In many cases, it will also cover damage caused by fallen tree limbs due to these events.

How long can I expect my new roof to last?

While a lot of factors are involved, roofs in Kalamazoo, MI typically last twenty to thirty years. Of course, this all depends on the quality of the materials used, the quality of the installation, and environmental variables. To ensure that you get the most longevity out of your new roof, be sure to work with a local roofer that uses high-end materials that are built to withstand Michigan’s unpredictable weather.

Should I replace my roof before selling my home?
