Unless you’re a properly trained roofing professional, the majority of roofing tasks should never be carried out yourself. In addition keep in mind that most manufacturers of products used in the repair of the roof won’t warranty those products unless a certified professional performs the work. The other thing to remember is that working on a roof could be very risky, so is it really worth endangering your health for you 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 one answer that fits all for every question like that. There are so many different products available and each will have its own advantages and disadvantages. To determine which is the ideal roof for your home, you should have a contractor come and take a look at your roof and they can make recommendations according to what they find, the type of roof you have, the climate you reside in and, of course, your budget.

It definitely depends upon the type of roof and what surveys are required. Also, remember that we’re working outside in the elements, so if the weather isn’t good and we can’t work on a number of days then this will add time to the task. A smaller home may take around a week or so, while larger industrial jobs may be anything from a few weeks to a few months. Just see to it your roofing contractor keeps you updated and you should be fine.

Considering that your roof is always subjected to the weather, it means your roof is will diminish gradually. The pace at which it breaks down will be dependent on a variety of factors. These include; the quality of the original materials that were used as well as the workmanship, the level of abuse it has to take from the elements, how well the roof is maintained and the style of the roof. Most roofing contractors will estimate around 20 years for a well-built and properly maintained roof, but obviously that can never be guaranteed due to the above variables. Our advice is to always keep your roof well maintained and get regular roof 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 give shielding from the elements. Also, you really should try to stay away from chlorine-based bleach cleaning products since they can also cut down the life-span of your roof. When you converse with your roof cleaning professional, ask them to use an EPA-approved algaecide/fungicide to wash your roof. This will get rid of the unattractive algae and discoloration without ruining the tile or shingles.
