As a home or property owner, maintaining your residential or commercial roofing system should be part of your usual list of tasks. Keeping up with the proper schedule of routine inspections is actually simple, however, remembering your appointments is what trips a lot of people which is why it pays to ask your local contractor for a maintenance agreement that will take the headache away from keeping your roof in good shape.
Once the contractor arrives for your regular inspection, take the opportunity to update yourself about the condition of your roof. Here are a few important questions you should always ask your roofer from our professionals at Fields Roof Service.
Life Span
The inspection and maintenance of commercial or residential roofing systems are done only once every few years, depending on your material. Asphalt roofing inspections are done every three to five years, while more durable materials like metal roofs can survive more than five years without a professional visit. You can get a quick idea about your roof’s service life by asking your contractor how much of it is left every time you get an inspection.
Roofing First Aid
Aside from addressing any pressing issue you might have with your roof, ask the contractors for the best ways to handle common problems like leaks. Some of these problems might be too serious to be fixed by a band-aid solution but it will help to know what that band-aid solution is while you wait for more help.
Maintenance Tips
Finally, while the roofing company is over at your house, ask them for any recommendations about how you can take better care of your roof. Professionals often have a very different perspective about how they handle roof care and these extra tips can help you out in the long run.
