Unless you’re a trained contractor, the majority of roofing work shouldn’t be carried out yourself. Also always remember that a large number of manufacturers of products used in the repair of the roof will not warranty those products unless a licensed roofing contractor performs the job. The other thing to remember is that working on a roof may be very dangerous, so is it really worth endangering your health for you to save money?

It would be great if we could give you a simple response to that question! However there actually is no one answer that fits all for every question like that. There are many unique products readily available and each one has its own advantages and disadvantages. To know which is the ideal roof for your home, you should have an expert come and examine your roof and they can make suggestions based on what they find, the type of roof you have, the climate you live in and, of course, your budget.

It definitely depends on the kind of roof you currently have and exactly what inspections are mandated. Also, remember that we’re working outdoors in the elements, so if the weather isn’t good and we can’t work on particular days then this is going to add more time to the job. A smaller home may take around a week or so, while larger industrial jobs may be anything from several weeks to a few months. Just be sure your roofing contractor keeps you updated and you should be fine.

Since your roof is consistently subjected to the weather, this means your roof is will deteriorate with time. The pace at which it breaks down will be dependent on a variety of factors. These include; the quality of the original materials that were used along with the workmanship, the amount of abuse it will have to take from the elements, how well the roof is maintained and the type of roof. Most roofing companies will estimate around 20 years for a well-built and well-maintained roof, but obviously that can never be guaranteed due to the above issues. Our suggestion is to consistently keep your roof well maintained and get regular inspections to make sure it lasts as long as possible.

You should not ever pressure-wash your roof, as you take the risk of eliminating any protective minerals that have been included to give shielding from the weather. In addition, you should steer clear of chlorine-based bleach cleaners since they can also lower the life of your roof. When you speak to your roof cleaning specialist, tell them to use an EPA-approved algaecide/fungicide to wash your roof. This will clear away the undesirable algae and yellowing without ruining the tile or shingles.
