Do you know when it’s time to replace your roof? Not everyone knows how to do it the right way. Replacing your roof is one of the most important things you can do for your home, whether you live in Hilton Village, Hidenwood, or across the bridge in Gloucester or Smithfield.
We at R.A. Woodall Roofing have been assisting families in Newport News, Virginia, and nearby locations like Hampton, Grafton, and Seaford make that decision with clear heads, confidence, and no pressure. We think that the best roofing experiences are based on honest advice, skilled work, and a lot of respect for your time and property.
So, what does a good roof replacement look like? Let’s show you how to do it.
When to Know It’s Time to Get a New Roof
Roofing materials are not meant to last forever. Around 15 to 20 years after they are put on, most asphalt shingle roofs start to show signs of wear. A lot of homes in Denbigh, Port Warwick, and Oyster Point are getting older and need new windows. Homeowners are starting to see the indications.
Here are some signs that it could be time:
- Shingles that are curled, fractured, or absent
- Granules are building up in your gutters
- Stains or leaks on your ceiling
- Energy costs are going up because of bad ventilation
- Water damage or sagging that you can see
If you live in Deep Creek, Kiln Creek, or Midtown Newport News and see these indications, don’t wait for a leak to be sure. It can save you money in the long term to replace your roof before it gets really bad.
What Does It Take for a Roof Replacement to Work?
The first step is to do a proper inspection. We don’t guess from the driveway at R.A. Woodall Roofing. We go up, look at the decking, check the flashing and ventilation, and look at the whole roof system. This is a real diagnosis, not a sales pitch.
After we know what your home needs, we go over your choices with you, which include:
- Roofing materials: conventional 3-tab shingles vs. architectural shingles
- Suggestions for colors and styles that will look good in your home
- Warranties from the maker
- Improvements like ridge vents or barriers for ice and water
We know that residences in Riverside are often different from those in Seaford or Grafton, so we make sure that every recommendation fits
Installation That Doesn’t Damage Your Home
Our teams will be on time and ready when it’s time to start the replacement. We take care of landscaping, driveways, and walkways. We carefully take off old shingles and trash and cart them away the same day. There is never a mess on your property.
After that, the true change starts. Your new roof is built to code and, more significantly, to the high standards that have earned us a trusted name in Newport News roofing for more than 30 years. To keep your home energy-efficient, the flashing is put in the right spot, the underlayment is fastened, the shingles are nailed perfectly to the manufacturer’s instructions, and the ventilation is taken care of.
We have put new roofs on homes in Hilton Village, Hidenwood, Oyster Point, and even bigger custom homes in Smithfield. They all get the same careful attention.
