Why a New Roof Is a Great Investment for Your Home

Maximize Your Home’s Value

At Fasto Roofing, we recognize that investing in a new roof can significantly increase your home's value and offer substantial returns. Here’s why a new roof is one of the best investments you can make.

1. Exceptional Return on Investment

• High ROI: According to the National Association of Realtors, a new roof offers a 107% return on investment (ROI). For a $200,000 home, this translates to a $14,000 increase in appraisal value.

• Value Addition: A new roof not only protects your home but also pays you back by boosting its market value.

2. Energy Efficiency

• Energy Savings: ENERGY STAR-rated shingles can reduce your energy costs by 10%-15% by reflecting solar heat.

• Cost Reduction: Investing in energy-efficient shingles helps lower your utility bills over time.

3. Insurance Benefits

• Storm Damage: Check with your insurance for coverage on storm damage. A professional inspection can reveal damage that’s not visible from the ground.

• Insurance Reimbursement: If covered, insurance can reimburse you for repair expenses, making the investment more affordable.

4. Roofing Contractor Savings

• Off-Season Discounts: Schedule your roof replacement during contractors' slow periods to save 10%-15% on the project cost.

• Promotions: Look for coupons and deals on contractors’ websites for additional savings.

5. Extended Warranties

• Longer Coverage: Modern asphalt shingles come with warranties that can last up to 50 years, significantly longer than the 20-year warranties from a few years ago.

• Peace of Mind: Longer warranties provide better protection and assurance of quality.
