Unless you are a trained contractor, the majority of roofing work really should not be performed yourself. Additionally remember that the majority of manufacturers of products used in the repair of the roof will not warranty those items unless a licensed roofing contractor performs the job. Something else to remember is that working on a roof can be very dangerous, so is it really worth jeopardizing your health in order to save money?

It would be really good if we could give you a straight forward response to this question! However, there really is no single answer that fits all for every question like that. There are several unique products available and each one will have its own benefits and disadvantages. To determine which is the right roof for you, you ought to have an expert come and take a look at your roof and they can make suggestions according to what they see, the type of roof you have, the climate you reside in and, of course, your budget.

It actually depends on the type of roof and exactly what evaluations are needed. Also, remember that we’re working outdoors in the elements, so if the weather isn’t good and we cannot work on particular days then this will add more time to the job. A smaller home might take about a week or so, while larger industrial projects could be anything from several weeks to a number of months. Just ensure that your roofing contractor keeps you updated and you should be fine.

Due to the fact that your roof is constantly subjected to the outside elements, it means your roof is going to break down over time. The pace at which it deteriorates will be dependent on a number of variables. Those include; the grade of the original materials used along with the craftsmanship, the level of abuse it has to take from the weather, how well the roof is preserved and the style of the roof. Most roofing professionals will quote around 20 years for a well-built and properly maintained roof, but obviously that can never be guaranteed as a result of the above variables. Our suggestion is to consistently keep your roof well maintained and get regular checkups to make sure it lasts as long as possible.

You should never pressure-wash your roof, as you run the risk of getting rid of any covering minerals that have been included to provide protection from the elements. Aside from that, you should try to stay away from chlorine-based bleach cleaners since they can easily also decrease the life-span of your roof. When you speak with your roof cleaning specialist, ask them to use an EPA-approved algaecide/fungicide to wash your roof. That will eliminate the aesthetically displeasing algae and discoloration without ruining the tile or shingles.
