Unless you are a properly trained contractor, the majority of roofing jobs really should not be performed yourself. Also remember that almost all manufacturers of products used in the repair of the roof will not warranty those items unless a licensed roofing contractor performs the task. The other thing to always remember is that working on a roof is going to be very hazardous, so is it really worth endangering your health so you can save money?

It would be fantastic if we were able to give you a simple response to that question! However there really is no one answer fits all for every question like that. There are so many different products readily available and each one has its own benefits and faults. To determine which is the ideal roof for you, you ought to 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 really depends upon the type of roof and what surveys are required. Also, keep in mind that we will be working outside in the elements, so if the weather is bad and we just can’t work on particular days then this is going to add time to the task. A smaller home could take around a week or so, while more substantial commercial projects may be anything from a few weeks to a few months. Just ensure that your roofing contractor keeps you updated and you really should be fine.

Considering that your roof is continuously exposed to the outside elements, it means your roof is going to degrade gradually. The pace at which it degrades will be dependent on a number of factors. Those include; the grade of the original materials that were used along with the workmanship, the amount of abuse it will have to take from the weather, how well the roof is taken care of and the design of the roof. Most roofing contractors will quote around 20 years for a well-built and well-maintained roof, but obviously that can never be promised due to the above issues. Our suggestion is to always keep your roof well maintained and get regular inspections to be sure it lasts as long as possible.

You shouldn’t ever pressure wash your roof, as you run the risk of removing any protective materials that have been included to give cover from the weather. Additionally, you should avoid chlorine-based bleach cleaners since they can also reduce the life of your roof. When you communicate with your roof cleaning expert, ask them to use an EPA-approved algaecide/fungicide to wash your roof. This will remove the unsightly algae and discoloration without ruining the tile or shingles.
