What we write about, and why

Every post here answers a question Farmington property owners actually ask before they hire anyone — what work costs, which materials are worth the upcharge, how long a job really takes, and the shortcuts that look fine for two years and then do not.

The writing comes from the same people doing the work in Farmington, NM and the San Juan Basin, which is why the numbers are specific and the advice sometimes tells you not to spend money.

  • Roof Replacement in FarmingtonMost Farmington houses see one full reroof in an owner's lifetime, and the decision usually gets made about two years too early. Before anyone sells you a tear-off, somebody should look at what the field is actually doing under the granules.
  • Roof Leak Repair in FarmingtonLeaks in this valley keep a schedule. They cluster in April, when evaporative coolers come back online across the county, and again during the first hard freeze in November or December.
  • Storm Damage Restoration in FarmingtonHere is an unpopular sentence from a roofing company: most storm damage calls in San Juan County are not storm damage. The basin gets about eight inches of moisture a year, and genuinely catastrophic weather is uncommon.
  • Hail Damage Roofing in FarmingtonHail is real in the San Juan Basin and it is nothing like the Front Range or the Texas panhandle. We get it a handful of times in a season, usually pea to marble, and it very rarely reaches the size that functionally destroys a shingle.
  • Wind Damage Roofing in FarmingtonWind is the weather that actually damages roofs out here, and spring is when it does it. From March through May the basin funnels a steady downslope flow, and the gaps around the Hogback accelerate it in ways that surprise people who moved up from Albuquerque.
