Unless you’re a certified roofing professional, the majority of roofing jobs shouldn’t be performed yourself. Additionally bear in mind that almost all manufacturers of products used in the roof repair won’t warranty those products unless a certified professional performs the task. The other thing to always remember is that working on a roof may be very hazardous, so is it really worth endangering your health in order to save money?

It would be fantastic if we could give you a straight forward response to that question! However there really is no one answer fits all for every question like that. There are plenty of different products readily available and each will have its own merits and faults. To figure out which is the right roof for you, you should have a contractor come and examine your roof and they can make recommendations according to what they see, the type of roof you have, the climate you live in and, of course, your budget.

It definitely depends on the kind of roof and exactly what inspections are needed. Also, bear in mind that we’re working outdoors in the elements, so if the weather is bad and we can’t work on certain days then this will add time to the task. A smaller home might take around a week or so, while larger industrial jobs could be anything from a few weeks to a number of months. Just ensure that your roofing contractor keeps you updated and you really should be fine.

Since your roof is always subjected to the weather, it means your roof is will break down with time. The rate at which it deteriorates will be dependent on a variety of factors. These include; the quality of the original materials used as well as the craftsmanship, the amount of abuse it will have to take from the weather, how well the roof is maintained and the design of the roof. Most roofing professionals will estimate around 20 years for a well-built and well-maintained roof, but that can never be guaranteed due to the above variables. Our suggestion is to always keep your roof well maintained and get regular roof inspections to be sure it lasts as long as possible.

You should not ever pressure wash your roof, as you take the risk of removing any covering minerals that have been added to give shielding from the weather. Furthermore, you should stay away from chlorine-based bleach cleaning products as they may also decrease the life-span of your roof. When you talk to your roof cleaning professional, ask them to use an EPA-approved algaecide/fungicide to clean your roof. This will clear away the unpleasant algae and yellowing without destroying the tile or shingles.
