Unless you’re a properly trained contractor, the majority of roofing work should never be undertaken yourself. Additionally keep in mind that most manufacturers of products used in the roof repair will not warranty those items unless a certified roofing contractor performs the job. Something else to bear in mind is that working on a roof is going to be very hazardous, so is it really worth jeopardizing your health for you to save money?

It would be fantastic if we could give you a simple answer to that question! But there really is no one answer that fits all for each question like that. There are many unique products available and each and every one has its own advantages and faults. To figure out which is the right roof for your home, you ought to have a contractor come and check out your roof and they can make recommendations based on what they have seen, your roof design, the environment you live in and, of course, your budget.

It definitely depends upon the kind of roof and exactly what evaluations are needed. Also, bear in mind that we’re working outdoors in the elements, so if the weather isn’t good and we cannot work on certain days then this is going to add more time to the task. A small home might take about a week or so, while larger industrial projects might 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 subjected to the outside elements, it means your roof is going to diminish with time. The rate at which it degrades will depend upon a range of variables. These include; the quality of the initial components that were used along with the workmanship, the amount of abuse it will have to take from the weather, how well the roof is maintained and the design of the roof. Most roofing contractors will estimate around 20 years for a well-built and properly maintained roof, but obviously that can never be guaranteed because of the above issues. Our advice 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 run the risk of washing away any protective materials that have been added to give shielding from the elements. In addition, you should try to stay away from chlorine-based bleach cleaners since they may also decrease the life of your roof. When you speak with your roof cleaning professional, tell them to use an EPA-approved algaecide/fungicide to wash your roof. This will clear away the ugly algae and staining without ruining the tile or shingles.
