Unless you’re a qualified contractor, the majority of roofing tasks shouldn’t be performed yourself. In addition bear in mind that the majority of manufacturers of products used in the repair of the roof won’t warranty those products unless a certified professional carries out the work. Something else to always remember is that working on a roof can be very hazardous, so is it really worth jeopardizing your health so you can save money?

It would be great if we were able to 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 unique products readily available and each will have its own merits and faults. To determine which is the best roof for you, you should have an expert come and check out your roof and they can make suggestions according to what they observe, the type of roof you have, the climate you live in and, of course, your budget.

It really is dependent on the kind of roof you currently have and what inspections are needed. Also, bear in mind 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 will definitely add more time to the task. A small home might take around a week or so, while more substantial commercial jobs might be anything from a few weeks to a few months. Just make certain your roofing company keeps you updated and you should be fine.

Considering that your roof is always exposed to the outside elements, this means your roof is going to diminish over time. The speed at which it deteriorates will depend on a range of factors. Those include; the quality of the initial components used and the craftsmanship, the level of abuse it will have to take from the weather, how well the roof is preserved 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 because of the above variables. Our suggestion is to always keep your roof well maintained and get regular inspections to be sure it lasts as long as possible.

You should not ever pressure-wash your roof, as you run the risk of washing away any covering materials that have been included to provide cover from the weather. Additionally, you should try to stay away from chlorine-based bleach cleaners as they could also reduce the life-span of your roof. When you communicate with your roof cleaning expert, ask them to use an EPA-approved algaecide/fungicide to clean your roof. That will get rid of the ugly algae and staining without destroying the tile or shingles.
