Unless you are a certified roofing professional, the majority of roofing tasks should never be performed yourself. In addition remember that a large number of manufacturers of products used in the repair of the roof will not warranty those items unless a certified roofing contractor performs the work. The other thing to bear in mind is that working on a roof is going to be very hazardous, so is it really worth risking your health so you can save money?

It would be great if we could give you a simple answer to this question! However, there actually is no one answer that fits all for every question like that. There are a lot of unique products available and each and every one will have its own advantages and disadvantages. To determine which is the best roof for your home, you ought to have an expert come and examine your roof and they can make suggestions according to what they have seen, the type of roof you have, the climate you reside in and, of course, your budget.

It actually is dependent on the type of roof you currently have and exactly what inspections are required. Also, bear in mind that we’re working outside in the elements, so if the weather is bad and we can’t work on a number of days then this will definitely add more time to the task. A smaller home might take around a week or so, while larger commercial jobs could be anything from a few weeks to a few months. Just be sure your roofing contractor keeps you updated and you really should be fine.

Because your roof is consistently exposed to the weather, it means your roof is will deteriorate with time. The speed at which it degrades will be dependent on a number of factors. Those include; the quality of the initial materials used as well as the workmanship, the amount of abuse it will have to take from the weather, how well the roof is maintained and the style of the roof. Most roofing contractors will estimate around 20 years for a well-built and well-kept roof, but obviously that can never be promised due to the above factors. Our advice is to consistently keep your roof well maintained and get regular inspections to be sure it lasts as long as possible.

You shouldn’t ever pressure wash your roof, as you run the risk of eliminating any protective materials that have been added to give cover from the elements. Furthermore, you should avoid chlorine-based bleach cleaners since they could also lower the lifespan of your roof. When you communicate with your roof cleaning expert, tell them to use an EPA-approved algaecide/fungicide to clean your roof. This will get rid of the unattractive algae and staining without damaging the tile or shingles.
