As we venture into the new year, a new roof can give your home the pizzazz it deserves. Just as we wear down as we age, the roof of our home does too. An upgrade can offer a fresh look and new protection for your family and possessions.
How does a new roof add value to your home?
Curb Appeal
“Curb appeal” is the attractiveness of a property for sale and its surroundings when viewed from the street. Landscaping, the front entrance, the condition of the siding, and the roof are all significant factors in curb appeal. When you drive down the street, you can see the homes that are well taken care of and those that could use additional attention. This is especially important when looking to purchase, or sell, a new home. The architectural design of a home can help decide which type of roofing looks the best.
Protect the Air Quality
The main purpose of a roof is to be a barrier between the outdoor weather elements and the interior temperature. Secondly, it is important to have a strong, solid roof that will protect the family and possessions. If either of these fails, then comfort fails. If damage has been done to the current roofing system, and moisture has seeped down into the insulation and underlayment, mold and mildew can begin to form. For many people with allergies, this can be hazardous and unhealthy. Protecting the air quality we breathe is important for health and wellness.
Energy Efficiency
Saving money on monthly energy bills is a desired goal. One way of doing this is to seal up a roof so the comfortable interior temperatures do not escape. According to the United States Department of Energy (US DOE), a new asphalt shingle roof can increase energy efficiency in your home by up to 30%, which works out to approximately $300 to $500 per year in savings. Secondly, your heating and cooling system will run less which extends the life of your HVAC unit.
Return on Investment
A new roof can offer a return on investment of nearly 60 to 68%, depending on the material used, and can increase your home value by approximately $12,000. Of course, a roof replacement costs more than that to install, but the return on investment is worth considering. Plus, the many years of protection with a new roof can offer exceptional peace of mind when the storms approach.
Damage
If you notice areas of damage, a repair can be done, but if the damage is too large, then a full replacement would be most beneficial. A full inspection of the roof would be best to determine whether a repair or replacement is in your future.
