Attention, weekend warriors! If you think putting on a new roof without using a professional Sanford roof replacement company is a good idea, read to the end.
When it’s time for a roof replacement, adding this task to your to-do list can be tempting if you’re a DIY enthusiast. But a new roof is a major project with significant cost and risk if you aren’t a licensed and insured roofer. Leave it to Advantage Roofing to take care of your Sanford roof replacement so you can move on to your next home improvement project.
Why can’t you DIY a roof replacement? Let us count the ways. Trust us, you’d much rather work on your bathroom tile or new landscaping than climb a ladder to replace your roof. Here are a few reasons this to-do is best done by the professionals.
Roofing Can Be Dangerous
Tearing off an old roof and replacing it is hard work. That work is also done many feet above the ground, most likely on a slope. Roofing takes skills, experience, and safety equipment that the layperson doesn’t have. Carrying materials and heavy equipment up and down the ladder isn’t easy, but a professional Sanford roof replacement company has technicians trained and certified to handle this project so that you can stay safely on the ground.
You Need It Done Right (The First Time)
Remember when you replaced your flooring? Installing a hardwood floor is tricky. Mistakes can lead to gaps, uneven surfaces, or damage. Fixing them means removing the floor, buying more materials, and getting professional help, which costs a lot and takes time. Okay, maybe you replaced your floor expertly the first time, but there is potential for costly mistakes. Now, imagine having to repair mistakes you made on your new roof. Talk about expensive and time-consuming! Better leave it to the pros at Advantage Roofing.
Roofing Can Take A Long Time
While a professional roofing team can replace a roof in just a few days, it could take much longer to do it yourself. Not only is it a labor-intensive, tedious process, but you may also have to make several trips to the local home improvement warehouse for materials. Forget the hassle and hand this project over to our Sanford roof replacement experts. We’ll have your new roof installed and looking great before you know it.
You Could Void Your Shingle Warranty
Did you know some manufacturers only offer a warranty if licensed roofing professionals handle their shingles? It’s true. So, before you grab your ladder and hammer, check the warranty information. Or better yet, call us to take care of your roofing project. Our technicians are licensed to work on any roofing material, so your warranty will stay intact.
Are You Insured For Roofing Accidents?
Accidents happen in the DIY world, but roofing accidents are on a whole different level (literally). Falls, equipment injuries, and more are possible when working on a roof. A professional roofing contractor, like Advantage Roofing, has you covered by being fully insured against accidents and injury. Rest assured that if any mishaps were to happen during your project, you wouldn’t be held responsible.
Cleanup Can Be A Bear
Like any home improvement project, when it’s finished, there’s plenty of cleanup to do. With a roofing project, not only do you have to dispose of the old roofing material, but there are also nails everywhere! And you know, one will end up in your tire without proper cleanup. Advantage Roofing uses tarps to cover your property, and we use a giant magnet to clean up those nails, which our customers appreciate:
“We like the way they clean up all the fallen loose nails by laying a huge plastic tarp all around my home and using big magnets after they remove the tarp to catch any loose metal pieces. Great company; this is the second time we have used this company to reroof our other home.”
