Unless you are a properly trained contractor, the majority of roofing jobs should not be performed yourself. In addition keep in mind that a lot of manufacturers of products used in the repair of the roof won’t warranty those items unless a certified roofing contractor carries out the work. Something else to always remember is that working on a roof is going to be very risky, so is it really worth endangering your health so you can save money?

It would be fantastic if we could give you a straight forward answer to this question! But there actually is no single answer that fits all for every question like that. There are several different products readily available and each will have its own merits and faults. To determine which is the best roof for your home, you should have an expert come and check out your roof and they can make suggestions based on what they see, the type of roof you have, the climate you live in and, of course, your budget.

It actually is dependent on the type of roof you have and what evaluations 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 certain days then this will definitely add more time to the job. A smaller home could take about a week or so, whereas more substantial industrial projects could be anything from a few weeks to a few months. Just ensure your roofing company keeps you updated and you should be fine.

Since your roof is continuously exposed to the weather, it means your roof is going to break down over time. The rate at which it degrades will depend upon a variety of factors. Those include; the quality of the original components used along with the workmanship, the level of abuse it has to take from the weather, how well the roof is preserved and the type of roof. Most roofing companies will quote around 20 years for a well-built and well-maintained roof, but obviously that can never be guaranteed due to the above variables. Our advice is to consistently keep your roof well maintained and get regular roof inspections to make 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 cover from the weather. Aside from that, you really should stay away from chlorine-based bleach cleaners since they may also cut down 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. That will clear away the aesthetically displeasing algae and yellowing without ruining the tile or shingles.
