FAQ
Welcome to Timberline Roofing’s FAQ page! We know that choosing the right roofing solutions can be overwhelming, whether you’re a homeowner or a business owner. That’s why we’ve compiled answers to some of the most frequently asked questions to give you the insights you need to make confident, informed decisions.
Residential Roofing FAQs
How long does a typical residential roof last?
The lifespan of a residential roof depends on the material used. On average, asphalt shingles last 20-25 years, while metal or tile roofs can last upwards of 50 years with proper maintenance. Regular inspections and timely repairs can also help extend your roof’s life.
How do I know if my residential roof needs to be replaced?
Signs that your roof may need replacing include missing or curling shingles, leaks, or visible damage after storms. If you’re noticing higher energy bills, your roof could also be contributing to poor insulation. Our experts can assess your roof and recommend the best path forward.
Commercial Roofing FAQs
What’s the best type of roof for a commercial building?
Commercial roofing options like TPO, EPDM, and metal roofs are popular for their durability and energy efficiency. The best choice depends on your building’s structure, climate, and budget. Contact us for a tailored recommendation that fits your needs.
What maintenance does a commercial roof require?
Routine inspections are essential to keep commercial roofs performing their best. Look out for signs of wear, ponding water, and membrane damage, and schedule preventative maintenance to catch small issues before they become costly repairs.
Gutter System FAQs
Why are gutters important for my roof?
Gutters play a key role in directing rainwater away from your property, protecting your foundation, landscaping, and, of course, your roof. A well-functioning gutter system reduces the risk of leaks and water damage, ensuring your roof lasts longer.
How often should I clean and maintain my gutters?
We recommend cleaning your gutters at least twice a year—typically in spring and fall. Regular maintenance prevents clogs and overflows that could damage your roof, siding, and foundation. For added convenience, consider installing gutter guards to reduce debris buildup.
