What does roofing usually cost?

What should I ask a roofing pro?

Is this a patch or a replacement quote? Does the price include the deck if the wood is soft? Who pulls the permit, and is disposal included? How many years do you stand behind the patch versus a new roof? Can you reach the roof without a crane or a sidewalk permit?

What do I do during an active roof leak?

Catch the water, move belongings, and photograph the ceiling. If the ceiling is sagging, stay out of that room. Post the photos and say whether the roof is flat, shingle, or metal. Do not walk the wet roof.

Typical issues

A stain that grows after rain is often flashing at a wall, chimney, or skylight, not a missing shingle in the field.
Granules in the gutter and curled shingles are wear. They do not by themselves locate today's leak.
Ice or ponding on a flat roof points at the drain, the scupper, or a seam, not at a shingle patch.
A leak only during wind-driven rain is often sidewall flashing or a window above the ceiling stain.
Do not walk a wet or steep roof to find the spot. Photograph the ceiling and the roof edge from a safe place.
