If you’re like most homeowners, having a new roof installed is a major expense, so you want to get the best deal possible. If price is your main criteria, though, you might be tempted to get quotes from the most affordable roofers in Miami and go with the one who puts in a low-ball bid.
Why A Rock Bottom Price for Roofing Isn’t the Best Deal
Shopping around for the lowest price is a smart strategy with many household items, but it’s the wrong approach to take with the roof over your head. Reputable roofing manufacturers understand that quality installation is essential for their products to perform well long-term, so they only certify skilled, experienced roofers to offer their best extended warranties. A cheap roofing job generally gives you exactly what you pay for – a poor quality roof that’s likely to fail prematurely.
- Expensive interior damage. If the material and installation work isn’t top notch, you’re more likely to have leaks develop that let water seep into your attic and/or exterior walls. So rather than paying more now for a higher-quality roofing job, you’ll face the future expense of repairing roof leaks, as well as replacing ruined insulation, saturated drywall on the ceilings and walls, and warped wood trim.
- Higher energy bills. Most often, roofers who do cheap work want to get the job done and then leave in a hurry. A reputable roofing contractor who gives you a fair bid is more likely to take the time to give you advice about roofing options that can boost your home’s efficiency, so you don’t waste money on unnecessarily high energy bills.
- Declining home value. If you decide to sell your home in the next few years, a cheap roof can make your home less marketable or reduce its value with buyers. If you get an offer and the buyer sees on the inspection report that the roof isn’t going to last, it can even kill a sale. On the other hand, installing a quality roofing product and opting for an extended warranty can make your home more appealing and help it sell faster too.
