Does a New Roof Increase Home Value?

One of the most important parts of your home is the roof. It keeps you warm on the inside but keeps the elements out on the outside. If you’ve noticed that your roof isn’t doing its job, it may be time to replace it. Though, did you know that a new roof can increase your home’s value if you’ve been thinking about moving? Here are a few reasons why:

Upgrade The Appearance and Adde Safety

An old roof can decrease the beauty of your home. A new roof goes that extra mile into making your home shine to potential buyers. Not just for looks, a new roof can add an extra layer of safety from issues such as water damage. 

Increased Resale Value
A new roof to a home increases the home’s value by between 15 to 40 percent. For some potential buyers, they may be more enticed to pay more for a new home that won’t need a new roof directly after moving in. With the simple addition of a newer and more modern roof can greatly benefit the home’s value for the long haul.

Improved Energy Efficiency
A new roof can make your home more energy efficient, keeping the warm air in on the cool nights. A roof with good insulation that’s made from efficient material can prevent hot air from escaping as it begins to rise to the attic–which reduces the need for home heating.
