Silverhawke roofs by the numbers
Subdivision data puts Silverhawke construction at about 1994–1998, with Beazer Homes and Trend Homes among the builders. Listings in the Silverhawke 2 section show homes from 1996, and the roofs we saw listed are tile.
An original roof from those years is about 28–30 years old. Because felt underlayment under tile usually lasts about 20–25 years in Arizona, original roofs here are generally past that range.
If you are selling a Silverhawke home
At least one Silverhawke listing promoted a new roof as a selling point. Buyers notice. If your roof is original, a buyer's inspector will likely flag the age, and that can turn into a negotiation late in the deal.
A pre-listing roof inspection lets you decide on your own schedule whether to repair, re-felt or simply disclose the condition and price accordingly.
If you are buying in 85233
When you are looking at a Silverhawke home, ask a few roof questions early. The answers can change how you view the price:
- Is the roof original, or when was it last replaced or re-felted?
- Are there receipts, permits or warranty paperwork for past roof work?
- Has the home had any roof leaks, and how were they fixed?
- Are there ceiling stains, recent paint touch-ups or attic water marks?
- Does the home have any low-slope or flat sections in addition to tile?
If you are staying put
For long-term owners, the question is timing. If the roof is original and you have had even small leaks, an underlayment replacement is the lasting fix. We lift the tile, install new underlayment and flashing, and relay the good tile, so the house looks the same afterward.
If the roof was replaced more recently, routine maintenance such as replacing cracked tile and clearing valleys is usually enough to keep it in good shape.
What a useful pre-sale roof report includes
If you order a roof inspection before listing or during escrow, the report is only useful if it answers the questions buyers and lenders tend to ask. Look for one that is specific about what was found and where.
- Approximate age of the roof and any signs of past re-felting
- Photos of cracked tile, worn flashing or exposed underlayment
- Locations of any active or past leaks
- A clear recommendation: maintain, repair, re-felt or replace
- Notes on anything that could not be seen or reached
Silverhawke HOA and approvals
The Silverhawke HOA covers the neighborhood, which has a playground and a walking path. We don't have the association's roof guidelines, so check with the HOA before changing tile color or profile.
Like-for-like work typically leaves the home's appearance the same. If new tile is involved, we can provide product information for an approval request.
