If you have a leak, hole, or other problem with your roof, it’s important to understand whether you need to repair, patch, or replace your roof. While you may immediately want to choose the option with the lowest price point, it’s essential to understand the differences between the processes so that you can choose the one that will have the best possible results for your roof.

In today’s blog post from David’s Roofing in Farmington, Arkansas, we will discuss the differences between roof repairpatching, and roof replacement, and how to know which option to choose.

Roof Repair

Roof repair is a general term that can encompass a large number of services, including fixing or installing new flashing, shingle repair, roof deck repair, and more. Generally, if there is a part of your roof that needs attention, you’ll want to first consider if a roof repair will take care of the problem and help to extend the life of your roof.

Roof Patch

A roof patch is a great option when your roof is in generally good condition and there is one area that needs to be repaired. During the roof patch process, the roofing contractor will essentially replace a small part of your roof with new shingles, which can help to eliminate leaks, holes, and other problems.

Roof Replacement

If your roof has been damaged in more than one area or it’s aging and cannot be repaired or patched properly, you may want to consider an entire roof replacement. While this is the most costly choice, it may be necessary in cases of extensive damage or if your roof is nearing the end of its lifespan.
