Why Roof Maintenance Saves Homeowners Money

April 26, 2023 by ezroofingutah 2 Comments

Your roof is one of the most critical components of your home. It protects you and your family from the elements, and it also plays a significant role in your home’s overall aesthetic appeal. However, many homeowners tend to neglect their roofs until there’s a significant problem, such as a leak. Waiting until a problem arises may seem like a cost-effective approach, but in reality, regular roof maintenance can save you money in the long run.

Here are some reasons why roof maintenance is a smart investment:

  1. Prevents Major Problems

Regular roof maintenance can help prevent major problems before they occur. For example, during a routine inspection, a professional roofer can identify and repair small issues like loose or damaged shingles, cracked flashing, or damaged vent boots. These small repairs are relatively inexpensive and can prevent more severe problems from developing, such as a leaking roof or water damage to your home’s interior.

  1. Saves Money

Investing in regular roof maintenance can help you save money in the long run. While it may seem like an added expense, routine maintenance is far more cost-effective than waiting until a significant problem arises. For example, if you ignore a minor issue and it turns into a major problem, you may need to spend thousands of dollars on a roof replacement or extensive repairs.

  1. Increases Roof Lifespan

A well-maintained roof can last much longer than a neglected one. Routine maintenance can help identify and repair issues before they cause significant damage, which can extend the life of your roof. This means you won’t have to replace your roof as often, saving you thousands of dollars in replacement costs.

  1. Improves Energy Efficiency

A damaged roof can compromise your home’s energy efficiency. Leaks or gaps in your roof can allow cold air in during the winter and hot air in during the summer, making your HVAC system work harder to maintain a comfortable temperature. Regular roof maintenance can help identify and repair these issues, which can improve your home’s energy efficiency and lower your monthly utility bills.

  1. Protects Your Home

A well-maintained roof protects your home from the elements, including rain, snow, wind, and hail. A damaged roof can compromise your home’s structural integrity and lead to extensive water damage, mold growth, and other issues. Routine maintenance can help ensure your roof is in good condition, providing the protection your home needs.

In conclusion, regular roof maintenance is a smart investment that can save you money in the long run. By identifying and repairing small issues before they turn into major problems, you can extend the lifespan of your roof, improve your home’s energy efficiency, and protect your home from the elements. So, don’t wait until a leak or issue arises – invest in routine roof maintenance today.

These are just some of the reasons why maintaining your roof will save you money as opposed to addressing your roof when problems arrive.

​ Ready to repair or replace your roof? I hope I’ve given you an idea of the money you’ll be saving when you decide take action on preventative maintenance for your roof. Even with all of that said, sometimes your only out of pocket expense for a new roof or roof repair will be your insurance deductible. If you’d like to see if you qualify, click here to find out. ​ At EZ Roofing, you’ll be in the hands of someone who has a track record of doing the highest quality work, runs their business with integrity, and a company who always stays true to their word.

We will take care of your home like it’s our own! ​ Contact EZ Roofing today to get an inspection and let us guide you through the process of getting your roof taken care of.

How Much a Roof Costs in 2023

March 27, 2023 by ezroofingutah

What Factors Go Into The Cost of a New Roof

No two roofs are going to be the same, so the price will vary from roof to roof. There are many factors that go into determining the cost of a new roof. So to better help you understand where your investment goes when making this purchase, I’ve comprised a list of the factors that have a direct effect on the price.

  1. The type of materials you choose
  2. Labor and time
  3. Installation method
  4. Enhanced warranty requirements
  5. The roof’s accessibility
  6. The number of penetrations
  7. Roof size and the complexity of it
  8. The amount of decking that may need to be replaced
  9. Dump fees
  10. Operating costs

While going through these factors here are some things you should keep in mind for the rest of the article:

  • The appearance of your new roof, such as color and style.
  • The products and materials you choose to use. Think about things like longevity, warranty, quality and wind rating.
  • Your time frame for getting the work done.
  • Your budget.

​ 1) The type of materials you choose Before we get to this first factor just be aware there are other types of roofs you can choose. These include metal, wood, and slate just to name a few. It’s all up to what look you want and your budget. These types of roof get expensive quickly and can be double or even triple the cost of an asphalt roof. Like I said before, we’re going to concentrate on asphalt for this article. The materials you choose will have the most impact on the cost of a new roof. The price of standard dimensional/architectural shingles across all the manufacturers don’t vary that much. But when it comes to accessories, there is a huge price difference between them. The main materials you will choose are:

  • Ventilation: Proper ventilation allows your attic to breathe and will allow you to get the full life out of your roof. There are different types of ventilation systems and vents that go with each. Proper ventilation is one of the most important components of your roof.
  • Underlayment: This is the material that is used beneath your shingles. It’s an extra layer of protection. There are different grades of underlayment to choose from and the better the quality, the higher the price.
  • Shingles: There are several types of shingles with various styles to choose from. They range from builders grade all the way up to luxury style shingles that look like real slate.
  • Metal Flashing: This is the metal that will be used for flashing where the shingles butt up against places, such as a wall or a chimney, or in open valleys. Metal flashing stops water from being able to penetrate at certain junctions of the roof. The most commonly used are made from aluminum, steel or copper.

​ 2) Labor and time Labor and time are two of the main factors a project manager takes into consideration when calculating the price of a new roof. The labor cost of each man on a crew is based on their skill level, experience, and how much they can get done in a day. The time it takes to do a job is also a factor. If the roof is complex and hard to access then it’s going to take more time and manpower to complete. ​ 3) The installation method you choose You do have choices. The truth is, there is a huge difference between installation methods. You can have your roof installed using the hand nailed or air nailed method. For most roofing companies, the air nailed method is the most popular method of installing a roof. The labor is cheaper and it’s faster which allows them to move on to the next project quicker. Hand nailing makes sure every nail is in the proper place before hammering it in. A well trained hand nailer can hammer in a nail straight and tight. When a roofing company has an experienced crew and has high standards for installation, hand nailing is unnecessary. Though we respect the craftsmanship, it is an old fashioned method of installing shingles. Choosing the right contractor will give you peace of mind whether they hand or air nail. ​ 4) Choosing the enhanced manufacturer’s warranty Only roofing companies that are certified by the manufacturer can offer you an enhanced warranty. The top manufacturers have a 50-year non-prorated warranty on the entire roof system and a 25-year warranty on the workmanship. In order to get the enhanced warranty, the roof system must be installed by a roofing company certified by the manufacturer and a minimum of three of the manufacturer’s components must be used. ​ 5) Roof accessibility Accessibility is the ability to access the roof for tearing off the old roof and getting those torn off materials into the dump truck and then getting the new materials back up to the roof for installation. What can make your roof hard to access?

  • The amount of shrubbery or landscaping you have around your house.
  • Having a fence.
  • How far away the materials and dump truck are from the place where the installers will be getting on your roof.

For example, a home with rows of shrubbery, a fence, and a driveway that is far away from where the installers can get on your roof will have a greater cost than a home with a roof that is easy to get to. ​ 6) The number of roof penetrations A roof penetration is anything that pokes out of your roof. Some of the common penetrations that your roof might have are:

  • Plumbing vents
  • Gas vents
  • Kitchen and bathroom vents
  • Skylights
  • Chimneys

Pipes don’t add that much to the cost. But bigger penetrations such as skylights and chimneys take longer to flash and to work around so they naturally add more to the cost of a roof. ​ 7) Your roof size and the complexity of it A large roof with many facets, hips, valleys, and pitches will cost more to roof than a simple ranch style roof. A roof that is cut up with a high number of facets at multiple angles, hips, valleys, and a steep pitch is more difficult and takes a lot longer to roof than a simple ranch style roof with only two or four roof facets. The taller the roof, the more precautions the installers have to take. For their own safety, they have to move slower and more carefully. This adds time to the job. ​ 8) The amount of decking that may need to be replaced Decking is the sheets of plywood that your roof is laid on. It can be difficult to tell what the condition of your roof’s decking is until the old roof has been torn off. If your roofer knows you need it replaced at the start, it will be included in the original estimate. On the other hand, if they find that your decking is bad while tearing off the old roof, the cost will be added to the final invoice. In your estimate, you will be given the price to replace any bad decking that is found during the tear-off phase. ​ 9) Dump fees When your roof is torn off, those materials go into a dump truck and are hauled off to a local dumpsite. The dumpsites charge significant fees for this service and they are going up all the time. Plus, there is the cost of the driver doing this job. ​ 10) The operating expenses of the company you choose Every company has operating expenses to keep their business going. These are some common operating cost:

  • Building cost and utilities, shop and truck yard
  • Advertising and promotions
  • Vehicles (fuel and insurance)
  • General liability insurance
  • Workers compensation insurance
  • Licenses and bonds
  • Training
  • Payroll and payroll taxes
  • Taxes (Federal and local government)

These are just some of the fixed operating costs that it takes to run a business. No matter if a roofing company does a simple repair or replaces 10 roofs, these are the costs that have to be paid every day. No matter what work you get done or what service you need, operating expenses will always factor into an estimate or final cost. It’s important to ensure that the company you choose is, at a bare minimum, licensed and insured. ​ Ready to replace your roof? Like I said earlier, every roof is different. I hope I’ve given you an idea of what your investment will be when you decide to get your roof replaced. Even with all of that said, sometimes your only out of pocket expense for a new roof will be your insurance deductible. If you’d like to see if you qualify, click here to find out. ​ At EZ Roofing, you’ll be in the hands of someone who has a track record of doing the highest quality work, runs their business with integrity, and a company who always stays true to their word. . We take care of you to give you the peace of mind you need. And remember, if a customer of mine has a problem, then I have a problem. We will take care of your home like it’s our own! ​ Contact EZ Roofing today to get an inspection and let us guide you through the process of getting your new roof.

Communication Is Key: Finding Exceptional Customer Service Utah Roofing Industry

September 3, 2021 by ezroofingutah

It’s common knowledge that communication is key between friends, spouses, and even between your son and his basketball coach. Communication and customer service is severely lacking in the roofing and construction industry as whole, and that includes Salt Lake City and surrounding areas. If choosing an attentive contractor is important to you, keep reading.

This void in the industry is actually what inspired me to start EZ Roofing years ago. After hearing all of the stories where homeowners were left on the back-burner, I knew that I could do better for my fellow Utahns. Some of the people I have talked to over the years had roofers that never got anything done and were just being strung along. Others had their roof fixed, only for their calls to fall on deaf ears when a leak or issue sprung up months or years later. Some customers even had a great roof installed that never leaked, yet still felt sour about their experience – just because of their roofers lack of responsiveness. If you’re reading this, you are probably like me and feel that awesome customer service is important to you too.

So I’ll get to the point: communication and customer service is key when choosing a roofer. From beginning to end, any question or concern you have should be addressed quickly to make the process as easy and comfortable as possible for you. Getting a new roof can be stressful, so you don’t want to ever be left in the dark. How do you know that a roofing company will have exceptional communication and customer service? There is no guarantee, but here are a few tips.

​

1. Analyze the sales person/roofers willingness to answer questions in detail.

This can be an early indicator of their enthusiasm and detail-orientation before you sign the contract. You’ll want the salesman handling your roofing project to answer all of your questions in detail, with a lot of energy and confidence! A roofer who isn’t enthusiastic and a source of information during your first appointment will likely not improve in these areas after you’re in a legally binding contract with them.

When doing it right, he should ensure that you understand every aspect of the roofing process whether it be insurance or retail, and invite you to call or text him at any time if you have any questions. One of my favorite lines is to tell my customers that they can call me anytime… even at 3am, because their customer experience is that important to me. I’ve only had one person take me up on that offer so far and I did answer! Because an attentive roofer is a good roofer.. right?

2. Check online reviews on Google and the BBB.

A lot times this can be a great indicator that a company gives good or bad service, period. Whether it is customer service, or quality of installation, these should be the first two websites that you visit to see if any ignored customers have left a bad review. A recent Zendesk Customer Service Study found that 86% of the time a consumer quit doing business with a company was because of bad customer service, you don’t want to be a part of that statistic!

3. Ask your roofer if their company has a system in place to make sure you will receive great customer service and have their questions answered promptly.

Not to minimize all of the great salesmen and roofers out there, but its the ‘not as good ones’ that you need to be able to spot! You need to make sure your experience as a customer doesn’t thrive and die with your individual sales person alone. This is more likely to happen during storm season, when It’s not uncommon for roofing companies to hire inexperienced and untrained salesmen.

These companies will expect the new guys to manage 90% of your project and be in charge of any questions or concerns you may have. Your sales person should be your main point of contact, but if that fails, it’s important that the roofing company you choose is involved in day-to-day operations and are staying informed of whether you (as someone expecting top-notch service) is being attended to.

Believe it or not, customers of some roofing companies can go weeks without a response from the salesman and the company not take notice until they see a bad review. This happens because when you call the office and let them know you haven’t heard anything, they will keep telling you that your salesman will reach out and when it doesn’t happen, they could be none the wiser. I know this information because before I opened the doors to EZ Roofing, I worked for a few companies that operated like this and this ‘hands off’ system is way more common than it should be. Madness!

4. Go with your gut.

If you read all of this information and still feel that your roofer is the greatest person in the world and you think they’ll give you great service, go for it!
