Roof Replacement Tips for Improving Your Curb Appeal

Curb appeal plays a major role in determining the value of a home and because your roof makes up for about half of your home’s overall look, choosing the right roof from the right roofing contractor is important. There are many factors that can affect your curb appeal and all of them must work together harmoniously to maximize their benefits.

What important pointers do you have to keep in mind when making design decisions for a roof replacement project? Our experienced roofers at Adams Roofing Professionals offer these tips to help you enhance the curb appeal of your home.

Complementing the Rest of Your Home

Your roof is a big part of your appeal but it is not the only part. You want to choose colors and patterns that work well with the other exterior elements you have. These are your front door, your windows and your siding, among other things. Talk to your roofer about roofing options that will fit nicely with the current architectural style that you have and use these other elements to narrow down your choices.

Colors and Patterns

Choosing colors can be tough but there is one easy concept that is almost always a guaranteed hit: contrasting. This means using roof colors that are starkly different from your siding. Light-colored siding panels work well with darker shades of shingles and vice versa. Additionally, you also want to choose complementing patterns. If your siding has a simple clapboard pattern, choose shingles with varying sizes. Alternatively, use uniform shingles for busy siding designs.

Don’t Forget Functionality

It’s easy to get carried away when choosing how you want your roof to ultimately look but don’t forget to choose materials that still perform well for your home. It’s better to have sturdy and durable roofing systems that require less frequent roof repair visits than a visually appealing roof with high-maintenance needs.

I wanted to let you know about an experience I had with one of your employees. I live at 1200 Knottingham Court in Kingsport Estates and apparently, your company is servicing our condo association. My building has had a leak in the entryway for several months and Eddie was dispatched out to have me show him the source of the leak inside. I met him on Friday, September 21st and just wanted to tell you how impressed I was with his friendliness and professionalism. He immediately found the source of the leak and even went up on the roof to show me. He assured me that someone would take care of it as soon as possible and told me he would give the report priority to avoid any further damage. As someone who used to be in Customer Service, I always value a company that hires people that are not only skilled at their trade, but also skilled at interacting with people. Eddie is a great example of that and I wanted you to know so you could tell him what a great job he does! I am so glad that Alma Management chose Adams Roofing to be our roofing contractor!...

Good Afternoon, I am writing to you on behalf of the Mission Hills M-8 Association. I would like to tell you how happy we are with the work that you completed for our Association.

Charlie, Thanks very much for replacing the gutter! No one has been out to do it, at least before I left for work this morning. But I will definitely let you know whether it’s done correctly. I am very satisfied with your roofing job. It looks great, and more importantly, there were no leaks when it rained (even though we haven’t gotten really hard rains yet). So, I have been very pleased with my experience with Adams, especially with the professionalism and responsiveness of you and Dan. Thanks.... [more]

I wanted to take a moment to comment on your technician, Eddie. Eddie was assigned to inspect a roof leak I am having in my home in Cobblestone Circle. He was prompt, professional, courteous and informative; everything a customer could ask for when inviting a contractor into their home. Eddie represents Adams Roofing Well; and clearly he is an asset to your company. Kudos to him! Thank you.... [more]
