How Long Will My Rooftop Last In Morristown?

Mar 25, 2022Blog, Morristown, Roofing

We at Ballantine Home Improvement specialize in providing Morristown homeowners with the very best in residential roofing services. Our expert workmanship and dedicated customer service have made us a favorite amongst Morristown homeowners and beyond.

We understand that installing a new roof can bite a large chunk out of your savings, and it is a significant investment, but it is also something that you wouldn’t want to do too often. Most roofing systems can last up to 30-40 years, sometimes even longer when properly cared for and maintained.

The lifespan of your roof is also dependent on things such as environmental conditions, exposure to the elements, and the quality of your roof’s installation. Living in Morristown means that your roof is regularly exposed to things such as heavy snowfall, severe wind speeds, tropical storms, and more. These environmental conditions can significantly impact the lifespan of your rooftop and lead to its accelerated degradation.

Let’s take a look at how long your roof type typically lasts in Morristown:

Asphalt Shingle Roofing

Asphalt shingle roofing is one of the most common roofing materials in the Morristown area. It is a popular roofing option as it is easy to install and highly affordable. Several asphalt shingle manufacturers in the US create shingle roofing materials capable of surviving moderate storm conditions. These highly durable shingles have a lifespan of around 30 years. Your asphalt rooftop will only survive these 30 years if you regularly maintain your roofing system. However, severe weather conditions may leave your asphalt rooftop needing urgent repairs or even a replacement.

5 stars is not enough! We could not be happier with the work that was performed and the experience overall. Super professional, responsive & helpful from the initial estimate all the way through repair follow-up. We are looking forward to our next project with Ballantine!

I got a few quotes from various highly rated companies for roofing, gutters, and siding. I happen to find Ballantine from a neighbor that was doing their roof also and was amazed at how quickly it was done. I called the number on the van and Scott came to look over the job and gave me a quote. He was the only one that went into the attic to inspect before giving a quote. He also gave me a quote for gutter replacements with leaf guard and repaired some siding and facia. The team was quick and professional and did the job in under the time quoted. They also removed the many attic fans I had and put in ridge vents which will save me a bundle on electricity bills. I'm very happy with way the roof and gutters came out and would definitely recommend. They also went above and beyond helping me troubleshoot some other issues. A+++

I first heard about Ballantine Home Improvement when my neighbor informed me that he had finally found a company that was willing to take on his difficult roofing job. The neighbor’s roof was very old and contained asbestos, which was complicated because of the special removal and disposal techniques involved. As I drove by his house each day, I watched the crew’s meticulous work and amazing outcome. Without hesitation, I hired Ballantine Home Improvement for a roofing job of my own. I was delighted that I was able to interact directly with the contractor, Scott Cote, who was present for nearly all of the work that was done on my house. Scott was forthright, accessible, and responsive to my every request. I was beyond delighted with the outcome of his work as well as the respect and integrity demonstrated by his team. I highly recommend Ballantine Home Improvement for any job that you have, big or small. It is a pleasure to discover a company with fair prices and a strong work ethic.

Ballantine is a first-rate contractor. They made multiple site visits prior to starting the roof replacement and constantly kept me apprised of any findings. I solicited multiple quotes and theirs was the most thorough and they were one of the few that performed an interior attic inspection prior to providing a quote,

A few weeks ago a periodic leak in our living room from the roof became consistent. Every time it rained, water came in and was damaging our wood floor. Within a few days, Scott and Ballantine Home Improvement had inspected my house, provided a very reasonable quote, and fixed our roof. We were so happy with the new flashing, we hired Ballantine to install gutter guards too. Of course, they were able to schedule the install for the gutter guards within a week too.I cannot recommend Ballantine Home Improvement enough. They are consummate professionals, whose work is top notch, with surprisingly reasonable prices.

Ballantine was great to work with. Very responsive throughout the process and quick to return any messages. Communication was far better then other providers we’ve used over the years. The team was very professional and I would highly recommended them.
