Both flat roofs and shingles can be installed in the winter. However, roofing can only take place when the weather conditions allow our crews to work safely and comfortably. Roofing is not possible when inclement weather (extreme cold, ice and snow storms) exists.
Winter roofing is typically required to deal with a water leak or to ensure the roof will be ready for spring rainfalls. Other home owners choose to do roofing in the winter for the following reasons:
- avoid price increases for roofing materials, which are typically introduced in the spring (the average increase in recent years has been 10%)
- landscaping is dormant and hence there is less likelihood of plant damage
- summer roofing makes garden space unavailable while the installation is underway
Flat roofs are easier to tear off in cold weather because the asphalt is more solid. Moreover, the potential risk of water infiltration during the re-roof process is minimized because it typically does not rain during winter months. Conversely, during warm weather months there is always the risk of flash storms.
