FAQs
What is a full-section roof replacement, and how does it differ from a standard roof repair?
A full-section replacement involves removing and reinstalling an entire continuous portion of your roof—typically one slope or valley—rather than patching isolated leaks or damaged shingles. This method is recommended when a large area (25–60 % of a roof face) has widespread deterioration, storm damage, or recurring leaks. Compared with a spot repair, a section replacement provides a uniform underlayment, flashing, and shingle system, restores structural integrity, and usually carries a longer workmanship and material warranty.
How do I know if my Birchwood home needs a section replacement instead of minor repairs?
Our technicians start with a free on-site inspection, looking for shingle granule loss, curling or missing shingles over a wide area, soft decking, water-stained sheathing, and faulty flashing lines. If damage impacts more than about one-quarter of a single roof plane, repairs often become cost-inefficient and can void some manufacturer warranties. In that case, we’ll recommend a section replacement so the affected slope performs like new while containing costs vs. a full reroof.
What is the average cost of a section replacement in Birchwood?
Pricing depends on roof pitch, access, chosen shingle type, and square footage. In Birchwood, asphalt-shingle section replacements typically range from $14 to $19 per square foot (materials + labor). Metal sections run $23–$30 per square foot. During your estimate we itemize tear-off, disposal, decking repairs, underlayment, ice-and-water shield, new flashing, ventilation upgrades, shingles, and clean-up so you know exactly where every dollar goes.
How long will the project take, and what should I expect during the process?
Most section replacements are completed in one to two days. Day 1: material delivery, protective tarping, tear-off, decking repairs, and underlayment installation. Day 2: shingle or metal panel installation, flashing, ridge venting, magnetic nail sweep, and final inspection. We coordinate dumpsters, notify neighbors, and provide daily site clean-ups to minimize disruption.
Do I need permits or HOA approval for a roof section replacement in Birchwood?
Birchwood falls under the county building code, which requires a residential re-roof permit whenever more than 100 sq ft of roofing is replaced. We obtain the permit, schedule required inspections, and post the permit card on-site. If you live in an HOA community, we’ll assist with color samples and documentation to expedite architectural committee approval.
What warranty coverage will I receive on a section replacement?
We are certified installers for GAF and CertainTeed, so your new section qualifies for a 50-year limited lifetime material warranty and a 10-year labor warranty when installed with the full manufacturer-specified system (underlayment, starter, ridge cap, and vents). Should you later decide to replace the remaining roof sections, we’ll tie them into the same warranty tier so your entire roof is uniformly protected.
