FAQs
How do I know if my Hillsboro home needs a full roof replacement or just a repair?
Several signs suggest a complete replacement is wiser than patch repairs: shingles that are curling or missing over large areas, widespread granule loss, multiple or recurring leaks, visible daylight through attic boards, and roofs that are 20–25 years old (the average life span for asphalt shingles in the Pacific Northwest). Because Hillsboro’s wet winters accelerate moss growth and water intrusion, small problems often spread quickly. Our technician will inspect your attic, decking, flashing, and ventilation to determine whether repairing isolated trouble spots is still cost-effective or if a full replacement will save you money long-term.
What is included in your free Hillsboro roof assessment?
Our no-obligation assessment covers: 1) an exterior inspection of shingles, flashing, gutters, and penetrations; 2) an attic check for moisture, insulation levels, and proper ventilation; 3) infrared scanning (when requested) to detect hidden leaks; 4) written photo documentation of all findings; and 5) a clear recommendation that outlines repair vs. replacement options, material choices, timelines, and budget ranges. You’ll receive the full report within 24 hours, empowering you to make an informed decision.
How long does a roof replacement usually take in Hillsboro?
Most single-family homes (2,000–3,000 sq ft) are completed in 1–2 days for asphalt shingles and 2–4 days for metal or designer composite roofs. We account for Hillsboro’s frequent rain by monitoring forecasts and using protective tarps so that your home stays dry even if unexpected showers roll in. Complex roofs with multiple valleys or structural repairs may add an extra day, but we’ll give you a precise schedule before work begins.
Which roofing materials perform best in Hillsboro’s climate?
Architectural asphalt shingles remain the most popular because they balance cost, durability (30-50 year ratings), and moss-resistant technology. For homeowners seeking maximum longevity, standing-seam metal roofs last 50+ years, shed rain quickly, and qualify for energy-efficient tax credits. Composite or synthetic shake offers the classic cedar look without susceptibility to rot. All three options can be paired with zinc or copper strips at ridge lines to inhibit moss growth—an important add-on for the Willamette Valley’s damp environment.
Will my homeowner’s insurance pay for roof replacement?
Insurance typically covers sudden, accidental damage (for example, windstorm, fallen tree, or hail impact) but not normal wear and tear. After our assessment we’ll document storm-related damage with photos and a repair estimate that matches insurer formatting. You submit the claim, meet the adjuster, and we’ll advocate on your behalf. Keep in mind you’ll still be responsible for your policy’s deductible, and upgrades that go beyond code compliance (like switching from 3-tab to luxury shingles) are normally out-of-pocket.
How much does a new roof cost in Hillsboro and what factors affect the price?
As of 2024, an asphalt shingle replacement ranges from $7 to $11 per square foot installed, so a 2,200 sq ft roof might run $15,000–$24,000. Metal roofing starts near $13 per square foot, while premium composite shakes can reach $18+. Key cost drivers include roof size and pitch, number of layers to tear off, plywood or structural repairs, material type, ventilation upgrades, disposal fees, and permit costs required by the City of Hillsboro. After your assessment we’ll provide a fixed-price proposal so there are no surprises.
