Unless you are a properly trained roofing professional, most roofing tasks really should not be carried out yourself. In addition bear in mind that most manufacturers of products used in the repair of the roof will not warranty those products unless a licensed roofing contractor carries out the task. The other thing to keep in mind is that working on a roof can be very dangerous, so is it really worth endangering your health in order to save money?

It would be really good if we could give you a simple response to that question! However, there actually is no one answer fits all for each question like that. There are several different products available and each one will have its own benefits and faults. To know which is the right roof for you, you really should have an expert come and take a look at your roof and they can make recommendations based on what they observe, the type of roof you have, the environment you reside in and, of course, your budget.

It definitely depends upon the kind of roof and what surveys are mandated. Also, remember that we’re working outside in the elements, so if the weather is bad and we cannot work on certain days then this will definitely add time to the task. A smaller home might take about a week or so, while much larger commercial jobs could be anything from several weeks to a few months. Just see to it your roofing company keeps you updated and you should be fine.

Considering that your roof is continuously subjected to the weather, this means your roof is going to break down with time. The rate at which it degrades will depend on a variety of factors. Those include; the quality of the original materials that were used as well as the craftsmanship, the level of abuse it will have to take from the weather, how well the roof is preserved and the type of roof. Most roofing contractors will quote around 20 years for a well-built and well-kept roof, but obviously that can never be guaranteed because of the above factors. Our advice is to consistently keep your roof well maintained and get regular checkups to make sure it lasts as long as possible.

You should never pressure wash your roof, as you run the risk of getting rid of any covering materials that have been added to give shielding from the weather. In addition, you really should stay clear of chlorine-based bleach cleaning products since they could also reduce the life-span of your roof. When you talk to your roof cleaning expert, ask them to use an EPA-approved algaecide/fungicide to wash your roof. That will remove the ugly algae and staining without destroying the tile or shingles.
