When Is the Best Time to Replace Your Roof in Massachusetts?

Massachusetts weather is known for being unpredictable. In a single day, it can shift from warm and sunny to cold and stormy. At StormCare Roofing, we monitor these changing conditions and work with your schedule to ensure your roofing or exterior project is completed at the optimal time.

Spring/Summer

The warmer weather of the spring and summer helps the adhesives on the materials to seal easily. Around this time, demand for exterior work typically skyrockets. Spring has more unpredictable weather and fluctuating temperatures, but it gives the best time to do immediate repairs to your home that the winter months may have caused. In the summer, the longer days allow us more time to work on your project. The demand for roofers in the summer is at its highest, so as soon as you notice any damage to your home, contact StormCare Roofing so we can get you in as soon as we can.

Fall

In the fall, the weather starts to cool and become more stable. It doesn’t rain as much as the spring and summer, and the temperature hasn’t dropped below freezing like the winter. With the cooler temperatures, the materials used better adhere to the roof. This guarantees a secure installation. Getting a roof replacement before the winter better prepares your home for the harsh conditions. You won’t want to need a replacement in the middle of winter because of the challenges that may arise. Roofers typically have more availability in the fall and can accommodate your schedule better without conflicting weather conditions. The fall is usually the ideal time for a replacement.

Winter

Winter is the least popular time for roof replacements and any other exterior renovations. Colder temperatures and inclement weather may make exterior projects more difficult. Installing a roof in freezing conditions may cause shingles to become brittle, leading to cracks and splitting. It can also cause the adhesive not to set properly, which can lead to a poorly installed roof. Roofs can still be installed in the winter, it just might require some patience. Waiting for the right weather conditions can take more than a few days, so flexibility in scheduling may be needed.
