How can we help you with your New Roof?

You might not know that a NEW ROOF has a high return on investment. Most homeowners, on average, can recoup up to 80% of the cost of a new roof when they go to sell their home. A brand new roof offers highly desirable warranties that home buyers covet! If you live in Boise, you will want to make sure your roof is warranted!

A new roof costs anywhere from $4,000 for a townhome to $16,000+ for a larger home. This range is based on things like the size of the roof, features, and shingle type.

Roof costs are calculated based on what is called a “Square.” A square refers to 100 square feet of shingles. Factors that determine the amount of “Squares” required for your Boise, ID roof include the size of your home, the pitch, the slope, and eaves/crevasses.

A typical single-family home requires approximately 20 square, but we use GPS measurements to determine the exact amount!

When it comes to a new roof in Boise ID – you have a few options regarding your roof’s shingles. Most homeowners go with asphalt shingles. There are the builder-grade “Three Tab” shingles which we do not install and the heavy-duty, aesthetically pleasing architectural shingles. These are sometimes called dimensional shingles and these are the only asphalt shingles we install!

Your roof’s shingles do matter for durability and longevity. Most homeowners go with asphalt shingles because they’re affordable and durable. The most common “Three Tab” shingles are not allowed in some states, and Boise, Idaho, is one of those states where you can’t install three-tab shingles as they are being phased out. Heavy-duty architectural shingles and designer shingles are not only more popular, but they are also longer lasting.

An architectural shingle, also known as a “dimensional” or “laminate” shingle, is durable, with multiple layers of asphalt melded together. This gives a dimensional look similar to wood shake shingles, but they’re cheaper to install and more durable. Oh yeah, they don’t rot either, as wood does!

We get the new roof durability question often and here is the answer:

• A new roof with architectural asphalt shingles should last 15 to 30 years. In our case, combined with the product warranty and proper installation, you shouldn’t worry about a new roof once you replace your old one. A metal roof lasts 40 to 50 years but is also more expensive.
