How to Help Budget For Your Roof

The house is said to be the safest place that a person can go to. It is where a person can move freely without the risk of being judged. And most importantly, it is the place where the person is shielded against the elements. But what if the place that you deemed to be the safest haven can’t even protect you from a little rain? Well, maybe, it’s about time that you should consider repairs and roof replacement. Unfortunately, since the roof is not at the top of the list of your financial priorities, you ran a little short of budget.

You don’t need to risk giving up some of your daily commodities just for your roof replacement cost. At Hollister Roofing, you don’t need to spend a lot just to make sure that you will have a real quality roof above your head. We carefully inspect the condition of your roof and provide a free estimate for a new roof replacement. Whether you have a small leak or extensive storm damage, Hollister Roofing will recommend how to fix your roof. Here are some steps to help budget for your roof.

Step One: Choose the roofing material that you want to use. The material will have a big impact on the overall cost. Consider the price, amount of time you plan on living in the home and the lifeline of the roofing material.

Step Two: Contact your local roofing company and have an estimate done.

Step Three: Request a written proposal that includes all pertinent information, material selection and a timeline for the project.

Step Four: Ask if they have any promotional deals or discounts. This will help cut some costs.

Step Five: Figure out a monthly budget. For example, if the new roof will cost $10,000 and want to replace it within five months, you will need to save $2,000 each month.

Step Six: When budgeting for the expense you should add 10 to 15 percent to the estimate. This will ensure that you have extra funds available in the event you run into unforeseen problems.
