A proactive approach toward your roof can help extend its life and keep it appealing for longer. Weather extremes, high winds, and natural wear and tear are common causes of roofing issues. Roofing jobs, such as snow dam removal and repairs, are always best left to professionals.
Jobs involving the roof could be especially dangerous if you are an untrained individual. Professionals have the right safety gear and equipment to complete the repairs safely and efficiently. Homeowners don’t usually have access to the safety equipment necessary for roof repairs. Improper ladder use puts you at risk of serious injuries.
A GAF roofer like Deschutes Roofing knows how to ensure roofing issues don’t recur. If you attempt to do the repair yourself, you could make mistakes that will likely result in further damage. When this happens, leaks could occur, leading to costly issues inside your home.
The most common reason homeowners try to repair roofs themselves is to save money. But the errors you perform while doing the job will cost you more in the long run. The problems resulting from improper repairs will require professional attention. You can expect it to cost more because your roofer will have to fix issues resulting from your errors.
Repairs by an unauthorized individual could void your roofing warranty. It’s the same for problems due to failure to follow the manufacturer’s specifications. While insurance covers roofing issues from weather events, it won’t pay for the damage you caused to your roof. Your insurer might also cancel your policy if you try to repair your roof and decking.
