When is it Time to Call a Roofing Expert in Washington, D.C.?

Sometimes, it’s all too obvious when a homeowner needs the services of a roofing expert. For example, if a storm hit Washington, D.C., and a tree crashes down onto your house, there is a very good chance that your immediate future includes the installation of a brand new roof. Around here, the place to turn for that kind of help is Shiner Exteriors.

Shiner has served the Washington, D.C. region since 1981. We are an award-winning and highly reputable roofing contractor, licensed, bonded and insured in the District of Columbia, Virginia and Maryland. We know that it’s never fun to think about having to replace your roof, but as a homeowner, it is virtually inevitable if you are in your house long enough. Certainly, by the time a roof is 20-25 years old, it is time to consider your roofing options. But not all roofs are created equally; some − like those installed by Shiner − are better-constructed than others. What you should do is keep an eye out for the following tell-tale signs that a new roof might be necessary:

• Surface cracking or blistering on shingles
• Extensive algae stains
• Rotting shingles or roof boards
• Missing shingles
• Asphalt granules from shingles in gutters
• Curling or buckling shingles
• Daylight visible through roof boards

If you notice any of these signs that you might need a new roof, give the home improvement experts from Shiner a call or send us an email requesting an on-site inspection and analysis of your roofing needs. No other roof contractor in Washington, D.C. will provide a better combination of customer service, workmanship, and affordability. Be sure to ask about our long-term manufacturers’ warranties and our own workmanship warranties.
