You don't want to have any regrets with a residential roof replacement, considering it involves your hard-earned money and time. If you're smart about assessing these things, you'll have no trouble making sure this replacement is straightforward and worth the resources that go into it. 

Possibility of Mold Growth

Some homes are prone to mold growth, which often happens when there are structural issues around the roof. Before you have new materials placed on your roof, make sure mold is dealt with properly if it has been an issue you've struggled with over the years. 

Your roofing company should remove all sources of mold and properly disinfect surrounding materials so that mold isn't able to continue to grow and affect the new roofing materials you invest in. These measures will improve your daily living conditions dramatically. 

Major Issues That Led to Replacement

There is probably a reason why you're having to replace your current roof. Maybe it's the fact that materials are coming off pretty suddenly or there's a major flaw causing water to collect around areas. 

You need to think about these particular problems before going forward with a roof replacement. Only then can you make sure the same issues don't happen, thus helping you maximize the years that a roof replacement can work out. The roofing company can get involved in this assessment process too, showing how the new system needs to be built to account for problems they found after a thorough assessment with the original roof. 

Roofing Materials That are Easy to Sustain

Every homeowner wants to have a beautiful roof, but longevity is probably the most important factor to consider when making such a big commitment and investment. If you want this roof replacement truly lasting, think about roofing materials that you can easily sustain from a maintenance standpoint.

It might be a material like metal that's inherently durable and thus won't easily damage. Or maybe it's some type of shingles that aren't that difficult to replace should damage happen. You want to find a solution that you can properly treat and care for over the years without straining yourself physically and financially. 

In order to be happy with a roof replacement — not just now but years later — you have to be thorough when assessing particular factors. If you do this successfully, you can approach a roof replacement with a professional company having peace of mind.
