Everything You Need to Know about Replacing Your Roof.

Thinking about replacing your roof? Whether you’re dealing with leaks, storm damage, or just an aging roof, you probably have a lot of questions:

  • How do you avoid getting ripped off?

Do You Need a Roof Replacement or Just a Repair?

Not every roofing problem requires a full replacement. Sometimes, a simple repair can buy you years of added protection. But there are clear warning signs that your roof may be beyond patchwork:

 

  • Shingles are curling, cracked, or missing

  • Visible leaks or water stains on ceilings and walls

  • Your roof is 20+ years old

  • You’ve had repeated repairs that don’t last

 

If you’re unsure, a professional roof inspection is the best way to determine the right course of action.

Choosing the Right Roofing Material

There’s no one size fits all roof. The best option depends on your home, budget, and long-term goals. Here are the most common roofing materials:

  • Asphalt Shingles: Affordable, reliable, and widely used.

  • Metal Roofing: Extremely durable, energy efficient, and long lasting.

  • Tile Roofing: Beautiful and strong, but heavier and more costly.

Each has different costs, durability, and maintenance requirements. A roofing professional can help you balance short term affordability with long term value.

How Much Does a Roof Replacement Cost?

The cost of a new roof depends on several factors, including:

  • Size and pitch of your roof

  • Material chosen

  • Local labor rates

  • Extras like tear-off, underlayment, permits, and warranties

For most homes, you can expect to spend $10,000 to $25,000. While that’s a wide range, knowing what goes into the estimate helps you avoid hidden costs. At Pinnacle Roofing Group, we provide transparent quotes so you know exactly what you’re paying for.

The Roof Replacement Process

Wondering what to expect once you sign the contract? Here’s how a professional roof replacement typically goes:

 

  1. Initial inspection and estimate

  2. Material selection and scheduling

  3. Removal of old roofing materials

  4. Installation of the new roof system

  5. Final cleanup and walkthrough

 

For the average home, the entire process usually takes 1–2 days. A good roofing contractor will also protect your landscaping, clean up debris, and ensure you’re satisfied before wrapping up the project.
