When Should I Opt for Roof Repair?

When it comes to roofing issues, patching the roof or replacing a few shingles can be a great short-term solution. Before you decide to repair, have a professional assess any roof damage. Make sure it’s is just the shingles or something minor. Don’t patch or replace shingles before knowing there are no underlying issues that will come back to haunt you.

When Is It Time to Replace My Roof?

Replacing the roof on your Northern Colorado home can be a drastic and costly process, but sometimes it’s the only viable solution. When deciding between roof repair v. roof replacement services, consider the following:

Your roof shows signs of water damage.

Once water seeps beneath your roof's shingles, you’re done for (or at least your roof is done for!). Water damage that seeps under the shingles can leave a mess in your home and even cause health problems if mold begins to grow. If you’re seeing brown spots on your ceiling, mold, or peeling paint, a roof replacement might be your best option.

Your home just experienced a recent major disaster.

Did your home just experience a hurricane? Tornado take off a few shingles? Violent storms and inclement weather can do more harm than you think—and total roof replacement might not be out of the question. If you think your roof took a beating, it’s best to have a professional take a look ASAP.

Your roof is old.

Is your roof leaking? Are some shingles missing? If your roof is only 5 years old, it’s probably not a big deal and a quick repair is all you need. Have a roof that’s over 20 years old, a full roof replacement is going to be your best call.

We are very pleased with 970 Services work and their customer service. Our roof was damaged from hail and needed to be replaced. Aaron worked with our insurance supplemental team and ensured we got the full amount that was owed to us. He also made sure the work was done correctly on our roof with a post inspection. Very professional and friendly. Thank you 970 Services for all your help! Definitely recommend!

Steve and his crew have done several projects at our house (water remediation, painting, plumbing, minor electrical, etc.), and I would use them again in a heartbeat. They are professional, responsive, and do top quality work. Their detailed estimates show where every penny goes, and they let you know if something needs to change. It's a great feeling to know that I can reach out to Steve if there's a problem, and he'll find a way to solve it.

We had a water leak from our hot water heater and our insurance company recommended 970 Services. I cannot tell you how great they were. Steve scheduled us quickly, did a very thorough inspection of damages, set up drying equipment and got things headed in the right direction. He then coordinated all necessary sub contractors for drywall, flooring, and even requested to be present when the insurance adjuster arrived so that they couldn’t skimp on us. This is the company you want to work with and I will never call anyone else! Thank you Steve & 970!
