FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Here is a list of common questions that our clients ask us. If you need more information don’t hesitate to get in touch with us.

Do I have to replace my entire roof if it leaks?

It depends. If the leak is simply caused by faulty flashing or a small section of roof that has been damaged, then you will most likely only need to repair the source of the leak. If, however, the entire roofing system has failed as a result of poor installation or subpar materials, then a new roof installation is appropriate and often necessary.

Why is venting of a roof so important?

Yes. Loud heating and cooling equipment contribute to sound pollution. Although no financial savings are tied to lower sound levels, the sound rating of a cooling system can have a considerable effect on comfort and enjoyment of your home. The sound level of an air conditioner or heat pump depends on a variety of factors, such as the age and make of the unit, and whether the compressor is insulated or not can contribute to the amount of noise it makes.

When is the best time to replace a roof?

If you have your roof done in the spring, you will generally find better availability and faster service. The professional roofing contractor is able to schedule your job when he is not busy with emergency repairs and when weather conditions are most favorable for removing and replacing your roof safely and efficiently.

How Do I Decide Which Roofing Material to Use?

This will depend on a number of factors, such as your budget, taste, and home needs. Be sure to consider the life span of each material, as well as the prevalent climate in your area before making a choice. We offer a variety of options including asphalt shingles, metal, slate, and tile, and we are happy to work with you to pick the ideal match for your home.

What should I do when my roof gets dirty?

Call Marathon Roofing and Contracting Inc for maintenance. Depending on your specific situation and roof type, we will remove leaves and debris; clean  your roof; and periodically check your roof for leaks to maintain maximum energy efficiency.
