Unless you’re a qualified contractor, most roofing tasks should not be carried out yourself. Also keep in mind that the majority of manufacturers of products used in the repair of the roof will not warranty those items unless a licensed roofing contractor carries out the job. Something else to keep in mind is that working on a roof can be very dangerous, so is it really worth risking your health so you can save money?

It would be really good if we could give you a simple response to that question! However there really is no one answer fits all for each question like that. There are several different products readily available and each has its own merits and faults. To know which is the best 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 find, your roof design, the climate you live in and, of course, your budget.

It actually depends upon the type of roof and exactly what evaluations are required. Also, remember that we’re working outside in the elements, so if the weather isn’t good and we cannot work on particular days then this will certainly add more time to the job. A small home could take around a week or so, while more substantial industrial projects may be anything from a few weeks to a few months. Just be sure your roofing contractor keeps you updated and you should be fine.

Since your roof is consistently exposed to the outside elements, this means your roof is will break down with time. The rate at which it degrades will be dependent on a variety of factors. These 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 elements, how well the roof is maintained and the style of the roof. Most roofing companies will quote around 20 years for a well-built and well-kept roof, but obviously that can never be promised as a result of the above factors. Our suggestion is to always keep your roof well maintained and get regular roof inspections to be sure it lasts as long as possible.

You shouldn’t ever pressure-wash your roof, as you take the risk of washing away any covering materials that have been added to offer cover from the elements. Furthermore, you should steer clear of chlorine-based bleach cleaning products since they may also cut down the lifespan of your roof. When you talk to your roof cleaning expert, ask them to use an EPA-approved algaecide/fungicide to wash your roof. This will eliminate the undesirable algae and discoloration without ruining the tile or shingles.
