Unless you are a qualified contractor, the majority of roofing tasks should not be undertaken yourself. Also bear in mind that the majority of manufacturers of products utilized in the repair of the roof will not warranty those items unless a certified professional performs the task. Something else to keep in mind is that working on a roof may be very risky, so is it really worth endangering your health in order to save money?

It would be fantastic if we were able to give you a simple response to this question! However there really is no one answer fits all for every question like that. There are so many different products available and each one will have its own merits and disadvantages. To figure out which is the right roof for your home, you ought to have a professional come and check out your roof and they can make suggestions based on what they find, the type of roof you have, the environment you reside in and, of course, your budget.

It really depends on the type of roof you currently have and exactly what inspections are required. Also, bear in mind 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 add time to the task. A small home could take about a week or so, while larger commercial projects can be anything from a few weeks to a few months. Just see to it your roofing contractor keeps you updated and you really should be fine.

Given that your roof is continuously exposed to the outside elements, it means your roof is going to deteriorate gradually. The rate at which it deteriorates will depend upon a variety of factors. Those include; the grade of the original materials that were used along with the workmanship, the level of abuse it will have 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-kept roof, but that can never be guaranteed due to the above factors. Our suggestion is to always keep your roof well maintained and get regular inspections to make sure it lasts as long as possible.

You shouldn’t ever pressure wash your roof, as you run the risk of eliminating any protective minerals that have been added to give protection from the elements. Also, you really should stay clear of chlorine-based bleach cleaners as they may also reduce the life-span of your roof. When you speak to your roof cleaning professional, tell them to use an EPA-approved algaecide/fungicide to clean your roof. This will eliminate the undesirable algae and yellowing without ruining the tile or shingles.
