Unless you are a trained roofing professional, the majority of roofing tasks shouldn’t be undertaken yourself. Also bear in mind that almost all manufacturers of products utilized in the repair of the roof will not warranty those products unless a certified professional carries out the task. Something else to always remember is that working on a roof is going to be very hazardous, so is it really worth risking your health for you to save money?

It would be fantastic if we were able to give you a simple answer to that question! However, there really is no single answer that fits all for each question like that. There are many unique products available and each and every one has its own advantages and disadvantages. To know which is the best roof for you, you really should have a contractor come and check out your roof and they can make recommendations based on what they see, your roof design, the environment you live in and, of course, your budget.

It really depends on the type of roof you have and exactly what evaluations are needed. Also, remember that we will be working outdoors in the elements, so if the weather isn’t good and we just can’t work on certain days then this is going to add time to the job. A small home could take about a week or so, while much larger industrial projects might be anything from a few weeks to a few months. Just ensure that your roofing company keeps you updated and you should be fine.

Because your roof is consistently subjected to the outside elements, it means your roof is going to diminish over time. The speed at which it degrades will depend upon a variety of factors. These include; the quality of the original materials used and the workmanship, the amount of abuse it will have to take from the elements, how well the roof is preserved and the design of the roof. Most roofing companies will estimate around 20 years for a well-built and well-maintained roof, but that can never be promised as a result of the above factors. Our suggestion is to consistently keep your roof well maintained and get regular inspections to be sure it lasts as long as possible.

You should never pressure wash your roof, as you run the risk of washing away any protective materials that have been included to provide shielding from the elements. Furthermore, you really should stay clear of chlorine-based bleach cleaning products as they can also cut down the life-span of your roof. When you speak with your roof cleaning specialist, ask them to use an EPA-approved algaecide/fungicide to clean your roof. This will remove the unattractive algae and discoloration without destroying the tile or shingles.
