Unless you are a properly trained contractor, the majority of roofing work shouldn’t be performed yourself. Also keep in mind that a lot of manufacturers of products utilized in the roof repair will not warranty those items unless a certified roofing contractor performs the work. Something else to bear in mind is that working on a roof could be very risky, so is it really worth jeopardizing your health for you to save money?

It would be fantastic if we were able to give you a simple response to that question! However there actually is no one answer fits all for every question like that. There are many unique products readily available and each and every one will have its own merits and faults. To know which is the best roof for your home, you should have an expert come and check out your roof and they can make recommendations according to what they see, your roof design, the climate you live in and, of course, your budget.

It definitely is dependent on the type of roof and exactly what surveys are required. Also, keep in mind that we’re working outside in the elements, so if the weather is bad and we can’t work on particular days then this will certainly add time to the task. A smaller home might take about a week or so, while more substantial industrial jobs may be anything from several weeks to a number of months. Just make certain your roofing contractor keeps you updated and you should be fine.

Since your roof is continually exposed to the outside elements, this means your roof is will diminish gradually. The speed at which it degrades will be dependent on a number of factors. Those include; the quality of the initial materials that were used and the craftsmanship, the amount of abuse it will have to take from the elements, how well the roof is preserved and the style of the roof. Most roofing professionals will estimate around 20 years for a well-built and properly maintained roof, but obviously that can never be promised due to the above factors. Our advice is to always keep your roof well maintained and get regular roof inspections to make 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 weather. In addition, you really should avoid chlorine-based bleach cleaners as they can also decrease the lifespan of your roof. When you speak with your roof cleaning professional, ask them to use an EPA-approved algaecide/fungicide to wash your roof. That will remove the undesirable algae and staining without destroying the tile or shingles.
