Roof replacement is one huge investment that shouldn’t be rushed. And so it’s really not about the best time of the year; it’s all about how adequately you’ve planned for it.
That said, Fall is considered the best time for a roof replacement
Here’s why:
The weather is cool and stable, and the temperatures range from 45 and 85 degrees which are comfortable temperatures even for the roofers to complete the roofing on time.
This time also gives room for the roof shingles to seal properly before the snowy months of winter kick in.
The drawback to this season is it’s the roofing peak; most roofers are busy, plus most summer tasks can spill into the fall months, meaning you may probably not get a good roofer or not get one at all.
So, if you want your roofing job done in the Fall, it’s best to plan maybe two months in advance.
Spring
We would say it’s the second-best. The winter chill has passed, and the weather outside is comfortable.
Plus, it’s also a time to address most roof repairs such as leaks and cave-ins due to the harsh winter weather, and roofers aren’t slam-packed as Fall.
The only issue with spring is, the rains can delay your roofing project.
Summer
Summer qualifies as a good time to replace your roof because:
- The weather is warm and consistent
- If it has to rain, it would be later in the day
- Asphalt shingles, to be specific, will have enough time to adhere to your roof and seal properly.
The downside is this season is just as busy as Fall or even much busier.
Winter
Not many people would think of scheduling any roofing jobs in winter; the weather is unfavorable, and replacing a roof can be a problem.
Shingles may not seal properly, and they can even crack or break due to the cold. It can even be unsafe for the roofers.
The good news is it’s possible to replace your roof in winter, as long as the roofer is well aware of what he’s doing, plus you’re likely to snag a good deal since most roofing contractors are not busy.
So, if you want a more flexible time, winter can be your best shot.
Just have to make sure the roofing contractor is a reputable one and guarantees quality work.
