oofing repairs and/or replacement is virtually an inevitable home improvement most homeowners will face if they live in their home for many years. If you have never dealt with Roofers Helotes, Texas contractors, you should know what to expect when you are having your roof fixed or replaced. The following will cover what happens when you hire a roofing contractor.
The Estimate
When you notice your roof needs some work, the first order of business is to have the roofing contractor come to your home and evaluate the situation. Once the contractor evaluates your roof, he/she will tell you what the roof needs, make recommendations, and provide you with an estimate. Make sure to get your estimate in writing if you are shopping around for a roofer.
The Roofing
Once you choose a roofing contractor to repair or replace your roof, you will choose the roofing material and other aspects of the roofing job needed for the contractor. Metal, cedar shake, asphalt, concrete, clay tile, slate, and synthetic shake for sloped roofs and EPDM or PVC/TPO (polyvinyl chloride/thermoplastic plyolefin) are the roofing material options from which to choose. Sloping roofs are most common for residential and flat roofing is designed for commercial applications.
The Work
After all the work is done, the roofing crew will do all the cleaning up needed so your property looks as clean and neat as when they arrived. The difference will be that your roof will be repaired or you will have a new roof. The Roof Doctor provides Roofers in Helotes services for residential and commercial applications.
After all the decisions are made, the contractor sends out a crew to repair or replace your roof. Depending on the work that needs to be done, you can expect a large garbage bin to be delivered before the work begins so they can cleanup as they work. The garbage bin is used to put the old roofing in and for proper disposal of the old materials. Your property will be disrupted for a few days as the crew gets the work done. If you are having a minor repair, you should not expect much of a disruption, but major repairs and roof replacements are noisy and disruptive. Make plans to adjust your life during this time.
