Unless you are a trained roofing professional, most roofing work should never be performed yourself. In addition bear in mind that most manufacturers of products used in the repair of the roof won’t warranty those products unless a licensed professional carries out the job. The other thing to keep in mind is that working on a roof could be very risky, so is it really worth jeopardizing your health in order to save money?

It would be fantastic if we were able to give you a straight forward answer to this question! However there really is no one answer that fits all for every question like that. There are several unique products available and each will have its own merits and faults. To determine which is the ideal roof for you, you ought to have a professional come and take a look at 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 definitely depends on the kind of roof you currently have and what surveys are needed. Also, keep in mind that we will be working outdoors in the elements, so if the weather isn’t good and we can’t work on a number of days then this will certainly add more time to the job. A small home could take around a week or so, whereas larger industrial projects might be anything from several weeks to a number of months. Just be sure your roofing company keeps you updated and you should be fine.

Considering that your roof is always exposed to the weather, it means your roof is will deteriorate over time. The rate at which it degrades will be dependent on a variety of factors. Those include; the quality of the original components used as well as the workmanship, the level of abuse it has to take from the weather, how well the roof is taken care of and the style of the roof. Most roofing contractors will estimate around 20 years for a well-built and well-kept roof, but that can never be promised because of the above issues. Our advice 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 take the risk of removing any protective minerals that have been added to give shielding from the weather. Furthermore, you should try to stay away from chlorine-based bleach cleaning products as they may also decrease the life-span of your roof. When you talk to your roof cleaning professional, tell them to use an EPA-approved algaecide/fungicide to clean your roof. That will get rid of the aesthetically displeasing algae and discoloration without damaging the tile or shingles.
