How much to reroof a house?

A well-maintained roof is crucial for the protection and longevity of your home. If it's time to address roofing issues or embark on a transformative roof upgrade, understanding the costs involved is essential. In this blog, we'll explore the factors influencing the cost of reroofing a house with Countrywide Coatings and Insulation, ensuring you make informed decisions about this significant investment.

1. Roof Size and Complexity:

One of the biggest concerns that we hear from prospective customers is that they think that their spray foam insulation has been installed incorrectly or the foam itself is not the right material for the job. In many of these cases, we find that the spray foam system is perfectly installed and can allay their fears, but in many others we find ourselves having to recommend removal and reinstallation.

We know that the prospect of having spray foam removed can be incredibly frustrating and expensive, but we are here to help and will do everything we can to right the wrongs of other companies who left your property this way.

The good news is that, as a spray foam expert, our team is ready to help and provide trustworthy advice that you can rely on, making your removal as pain-free and speedy as possible.

2. Choice of Roofing Material:

If you've noticed that your spray foam isn't working the way it should but you want to save on costs then you may be considering ignoring the problem and leaving it in place, but this is not wise. Take a look at some of the main benefits you can look forward to when you organise spray foam removal for your property:

Increase the Value of Your Property – badly installed spray foam will have a direct impact on the value and saleability of your property, meaning that removal will give you a greater chance of improving the money you can make when you decide to sell.
Reduce the Impact of Closed-Cell Insulation – closed cell spray foam is not recommended for residential properties as it can cause condensation and damp. Arranging the removal of this material will help your property to breathe better and stop your roof timbers from rotting.
Make Repairs Easier – if you want to replace your roof or your poorly installed spray foam has caused damage to your property, then getting it removed will make it much easier to complete repairs. Once they are all finished, you can then choose to have the right spray foam installed by an expert service.
You Can Repurpose Your Attic – if you decide to have spray foam installed previously but now want to renovate your attic space then getting the foam removed will allow you to make progress without having to work around the foam, resulting in more space and less fuss.

3. Roof Pitch and Accessibility:

The pitch or steepness of your roof affects the ease of access for roofing professionals. Steeper roofs may require additional safety measures and can influence labour costs. Accessibility considerations, such as the height of your home and the need for specialised equipment, can also contribute to the overall expense.

4. Removal of Existing Roofing:

If your current roof needs to be removed before installing the new roofing material, this adds to the cost. The complexity of the removal process, the number of layers to be removed, and the disposal of old roofing materials are factors to consider.

5. Roofing Underlayment and Insulation:

Countrywide Coatings and Insulation not only specialises in roofing but also insulation. The inclusion of high-quality underlayment and insulation in your reroofing project contributes to energy efficiency and can influence costs. Proper insulation is an investment that pays off in terms of comfort and long-term savings.

6. Geographic Location:

The cost of materials and labour can vary based on your geographic location. Local labour rates, material availability, and regional building codes can impact the overall cost of reroofing. Countrywide Coatings and Insulation are equipped to adapt to regional specifications and deliver quality services tailored to your location.

7. Additional Considerations:

Roofing Warranties: The type and duration of warranties offered by Countrywide Coatings and Insulation can influence costs. Longer warranties often reflect confidence in the durability and performance of the roofing materials.
Emergency Repairs: If your roof requires urgent attention due to damage or leaks, emergency repairs may be necessary before reroofing. Addressing immediate issues ensures the long-term success of the reroofing project.
