Are you thinking of re-roofing your home but are not sure if it’s needed? To help you decide, here are West Oahu Roofing’s (WOR) customers’ top five reasons on why they decided to re-roof:
1. Old Roofs. Homes built before the mid-’90s are ready for re-roofing. These homes should be re-roofed soon to prevent damages, such as roof leaks, to the interior of your home.
2. Roof Leaks. Roof leaks can be fixed with simple repairs while others may need new roofs. WOR will give you an honest evaluation on how to remedy the problem. The longer you wait, the chances of added costs due to repairs increases.
3. Rooftop PV. Many homeowners in Hawaii are taking advantage of rooftop solar. Before photovoltaic (PV) is installed, make sure your roof is evaluated. Re-roofing after PV installations are subject to additional costs to remove and re-install PV panels.
4. Home Cooling. Older roofs are usually dark in color, which traps extra heat in your home. New roofs have heat reflective energy saving characteristics that make your home cooler.

Re-roofing with quality materials and an experienced company is the best way to ensure your home is protected from nature’s elements and will keep your family safe for years to come.
5. Home Sale. Not only does re-roofing take care of all the roofing issues, it also adds to the curb appeal and increases the value of your home. When selling a house after a new roof installed the added value of the home is approximately 15-20 percent.
Selecting the right roofing company can be stressful because there are many different roofing companies, materials and manufacturers in the roofing industry. Allow the team at WOR help you find the perfect roofing system to fit your needs and budget.
