Unless you’re a qualified contractor, most roofing tasks really should not be undertaken yourself. In addition remember that almost all manufacturers of products used in the roof repair will not warranty those products unless a certified roofing contractor performs the task. The other thing to remember is that working on a roof is going to be very risky, so is it really worth endangering your health for you to save money?

It would be great if we could give you a simple answer to this question! However, there really is no single answer that fits all for each question like that. There are several unique products available and each has its own advantages and faults. To figure out which is the best roof for your home, you ought to have an expert come and take a look at your roof and they can make suggestions according to what they discover, your roof design, the climate you live in and, of course, your budget.

It actually depends upon the type of roof and what evaluations are required. Also, remember that we will be working outside in the elements, so if the weather isn’t good and we cannot work on a number of days then this will certainly add time to the task. A smaller home could take around a week or so, while larger industrial projects may be anything from several weeks to a few months. Just make certain your roofing company keeps you updated and you really should be fine.

Since your roof is consistently subjected to the outside elements, it means your roof is going to diminish with time. The speed at which it breaks down will be dependent on a variety of variables. Those include; the grade of the original components that were used along with 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 quote around 20 years for a well-built and well-maintained roof, but obviously that can never be guaranteed as a result of the above factors. Our suggestion is to always 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 run the risk of taking off any protective materials that have been included to provide protection from the elements. Furthermore, you really should steer clear of chlorine-based bleach cleaning products as they may also reduce the lifespan of your roof. When you converse with your roof cleaning specialist, tell them to use an EPA-approved algaecide/fungicide to clean your roof. That will get rid of the unattractive algae and discoloration without damaging the tile or shingles.
