When your contemplating re-roofing your home, consider the following.
Most home owners are unaware that roofing is an art. To correctly identify problems on a roof deck, the roofer must have years of experience in his field.
Areas of concern are things like plywood seams, roof trusses, dormers, fascia metal, ventilation and a plethora of incidental issues that may arise.
When planning to spend your money on a new roof shingle. You already know its going to be thousands, so why skimp out by using a sub standard contractor that has given you a deal thats hundreds less than the others.
These particular so called contractors do not have special deals arranged with suppliers or slace labour rates to employees, they are cutting the price because they are giving you substandard or inferior materials.
These are the true facts and homeowners that say, “well its just a roof”, are singing a different song, when water is streaming into their home and their roofer has left them with a tailight gaurantee, as his tires left a skid marks in the driveway as he hastily drove his 20 year old truck out of the driveway.
Be Smart when it comed to a complete home roofing installation and dont be caught out.
A certified roofer is the key to a good experience. They have accreditation from the supplier, which means they need to comply with the specifications for a proper roof installation. This encompasses, ice and water shield which protects the first three feet from your eaves around your home ( you may ask for additional ice and water based on the pitch of your roof).
Synthetic underlayment is applied to the remaider of your roof over all exposed plywood. This roofing membrane will protect your home in the event that you do have a roof shingle blow off or you allow the shingle to age past the warranty date or around 30 years.
Starter shingles are applied to areas of the roof prone to wind, rain and other extreme weather conditions, usually around the perimeter of your roof deck.
Shingles contain asphalt and fiberglass, the amount of this roofing compound is vital to the longevity of your roof. A heavy weighted shingle contains more of these elements and should be highly desirable when choosing a roof shingle replacement.
