It is recommended by most to schedule your roofing projects in the summer because many roofing projects require vacating the premises while the project takes place. This could take days to complete depending on the type of roofing project so it is easier to vacate the premises during the summer. However, if you cannot schedule the roofing project then, you do have other options. Here are reasons why you could still schedule your roof replacement during the late summer or early fall.
The summer is the busy season so roofing contractors are usually booked up and getting the time you want may be difficult. However, scheduling your roofing project in the fall usually means that you can hire the contractor of your choice and schedule your roofing project at a time that is convenient for you.
The temperatures are usually cooler in late summer and early fall which gives the roofing contractors a better working environment. You may also be able to avoid hurricanes by scheduling your roofing project in the fall.
Scheduling a roofing project during the hurricane season is probably not a good idea because the number of emergency roof repairs will increase due to storm damage. It will more difficult to get the roofer of your choice to find the time to complete your roofing project at this time of the year. If you do start a roofing project during the hurricane season and a hurricane hits in the middle of a roof replacement your roof is vulnerable to major storm damage which could be quite costly.
If you complete your roofing project before hurricane season, you can rest assured that you will be warm and dry regardless of inclement weather. It will give good feeling to know your home is prepared for hurricane season.
