When it’s time to have your roof replaced, you’re going to need to look for new roofing materials to put on top of your head. One good material worthy of your consideration is concrete tile roofs. Tile roofing is one of your best bets if you live in an area that experiences severe weather. However, it’s not as simple to install one since it requires the skills of an experienced roofing professional to install. In this post, the expert on roofing and gutters, Roofmasters Roofing and Sheet Metal Company, Inc. shares the mistakes a professional won’t commit when installing a new tile roof.
One of the most important things your roofing contractor has to check before starting a roofing job is verifying if your roofing project is compliant to local building codes and regulations. If they fail to do so, your project could be fined on grounds of building violations and you will be forced to remove your new roof if it already has been installed.
To avoid this issue, make sure that your roofing contractors have verified that your tile roofing project is pursuant to local building codes before it even starts. This saves you from potential headaches in the future and ensures that your project is safe and compliant as well.
When you’re having a new tile roof installed, your roofing contractor should follow the tile installation pattern prescribed by the roofing manufacturer. Granted, some roofers may have this down to muscle memory, but it’s better to be safe than sorry since failing to follow this pattern will leave your roof vulnerable to elements. For instance, this won’t let you roof shed water properly, leading to your roof deteriorating quicker than expected.
