Schedule Your Roofing Installation Before the Summer Rush Beat Peak Roofing Season
A lot of people hold off on scheduling a roof installation or repair until the “right time.” Most homeowners wrongly assume summer and early fall are the right times. The truth is summer is peak roofing season, so it’s better to schedule ahead of time. You could say demand is through the roof! There are some simple reasons why summer is peak roofing season. The weather is often ideal for installing a roof, and homeowners typically have time off from work. When it comes to the weather, this can be a blessing for roofing contractors; but for homeowners who schedule last minute, finding a time can be difficult. During the busy season, there are longer waiting periods to get an installation date with a reliable roofing company. Another factor to be aware of is the cost of roofing products and supplies. As peak season arrives, suppliers like Laughing Corner
to raise their prices, making shingles and other materials costlier for consumers, including both roofing contractors and homeowners. When you schedule a roof installation during the off-season (such as in the spring), you can avoid the pitfalls that occur later in the year. You can get an installation date that better fits your schedule and avoid the long wait. Another bonus of a spring installation is that you can take care of roof leaks sooner. As the snow melts and the temperatures rise, homeowners typically become more aware of roof-related issues, such as leaks or missing shingles. A spring installation gets these issues taken care of before they become a bigger problem and potentially damage your attic and other areas of the home. After all, moisture that gets into the home is a big deal. Not only can it lead
