If your roof is reaching the end of its life or has been damaged by heavy weather, you need to schedule roof replacement. But unless it’s an emergency situation, you have a choice about when to schedule. The right season for your renovation depends on two factors: the availability of your roofing contractors and the weather.

Busy & Slow Seasons

The most common time for roof replacement and other major roofing projects is late summer through fall. During this time, your contractor is likely to be booked solid, so scheduling work at all during this time might be difficult. If you do get a slot, you can expect to pay slightly more than average for the service because of the peak demand. If you want to avoid this extra cost and enjoy a more flexible schedule, you should plan to have your roof replacement done during the offseason in winter or spring.

Temperature & Weather

The drawback of the offseason is that the weather isn’t always favorable for the work. Some types of roofing materials need to cure at temperatures above 40 degrees Fahrenheit, for example, and your roofer will not work in stormy conditions. Thankfully, Tallahassee and surrounding areas are warm enough year-round to make roof replacement possible most of the time. And thanks to your roofer’s more open schedule during the winter months, if the weather does interfere with the work, you’ll be able to reschedule easily.
