Buying a roof

Buying a new roof is an investment for the future, and most house owners will only make this kind of purchase once in their lifetime. People who are not construction specialists often have incomplete knowledge about roofing materials and their installation. This is why it is recommended to turn to professional roofers, who can provide practical advice by looking at the construction object, measuring and evaluating the roof, and drawing up a cost estimate. Having an accurate roof plan is essential.

Problems often arise, if wooden roof structures are not set up properly. For example, damp wood is used in rafters, which has not been produced and incorporated properly. Only high-quality surface preparation guarantees perfect installation. The quality of rafters is important, as is wind insulation, OSB panels, edgings, drainage systems, steam insulation, thermal insulation, roof ventilation, outputs, and other elements.

Installation specifics

There are different installation methods that can be applied to different roofing materials. High-quality and technically correct installation of roofing materials is a result of professional and technical knowledge about each particular roofing material. So it is not easy to do on your own. There are many nuances, which the customer may not be aware of; for example, the need to have good ventilation, ensure fire prevention, ensure the correct roof slope for the selected materials, safety measures on the roof, etc. Even the best roofing materials will fail to protect the house, if there are no rainwater systems installed. It is essential to have leak-proof water drainage channels and other connecting points (chimneys, firewalls, ventilation outlets, antenna mounts) on the roof. Professional roofers will save you money and help avoid the unnecessary waste of materials.

Roof renovation

Like everything in this world, even the best roofs get damaged with time. Some can be restored, while others must be changed completely. To find out what the true condition of the roof is and avoid unpleasant surprises, it is worthwhile asking a professional to perform an inspection of the roof structure and surface. It is cheaper to repair minor damage by cleaning the roof, drains and gutters, ensuring long-term service of the roof. If, however, it is necessary to change the roof, you still win! A new roof adds high value to your property. It will also provide you with an opportunity to build an attic by increasing the living area, achieve more efficient thermal insulation in the roof space and the living room, or indulge in architectural diversity.
