But do you need to replace your whole roof? Or will roofing repair suffice to meet your needs?<!--more--><\/p>\n<p>Whether a storm hit your Bay Area condo and shellacked your roof tiles; or a tenant spotted a massive leak, you have two basic options:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Patch leaks and spot repair damaged parts of the roof;<\/li>\n<li><span style=\"line-height: 1.5em;\">Conduct a partial or total re-roofing.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Damaged shingles look bad, but <strong>replacing shingles can be surprisingly simple, superficial work.<\/strong> Just remove the mangled shingles and attach new ones. There is one big catch, though; you need to find shingles or tiles that match your current roof. Unless you saved extra shingles from the original roofing job, you&#8217;ll need to hunt for tiles. Mismatched tiles don&#8217;t look great, even when they get the job done. A mismatched roof can also make your home less salable.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Partial re-roofing<\/strong> may seem like a logical solution; the work is less complex and labor-intensive than full re-roofing. However, on a square foot basis, partial <a title=\"Bay Area Roofing Repair\" href=\"http:\/\/centuryrooftile.com\/\">roofing<\/a> is actually pricier than complete re-roofing. Plus, you want to avoid fixing one section\u2026 only to have to fix subsequent other sections, months or years from now, in a piece-by-piece fashion.<\/p>\n<h2>Contact our Bay Area Roofing Contractors Today<\/h2>\n<p>The whole calculus is tricky because you need to weigh short-term benefits\/costs against long-term benefits\/costs. A lackluster job done today may save you money upfront; over 10 years, though, you&#8217;ll pay a lot in repeat costs. Conversely, if you spend a lot re-roofing your building today &#8212; and then market pressures force you to sell it in a year &#8212; you may not recoup the costs.
