- What’s better than the builder-grade shingles my Londonderry house came with?
- Almost anything, honestly — production builders chose shingles by the pallet price. Modern dimensional shingles from GAF and IKO carry stronger wind ratings, better granule retention, and 25–30 realistic NH years versus the 15–20 the original 3-tab was ever going to give. The bigger upgrade is underneath: ice-and-water shield at the eaves and valleys, synthetic underlayment, and properly replaced flashing — the parts of a roof the original build may have minimized and that determine whether winter gets in.
- Should I re-roof before selling a Londonderry home?
- If the roof is visibly aged, it will come up in every showing and every inspection, and buyers negotiate the price down by more than the roof costs — an old roof reads as “what else was deferred?” A new dimensional-shingle roof with transferable manufacturer warranty documentation is one of the cleanest pre-sale investments there is. If the roof has a few honest years left, we’ll say so and you can spend the money elsewhere; the inspection and written estimate are free either way.
