Make sure that you're secured whenever you climb onto your roof.
It is important that you check out your potential contractor's history before you hire. Once you've got them, give them a call and ask them about the value and quality of the work. You need to also look at some of the properties yourself. Drive by and get a look before deciding who to hire.

Don't use short-term solutions for your roof. It may seem like a money saver, but in the end, and that may cost you more. You should take care of problems before they cause serious damages.

Make sure that the roofing contractor you hire is trained and skilled. You can ask family and friends for personal recommendations. This will ensure that you don't want to have a lot of money.


Insurance is something that you need to have when it comes to roof work. If damage occurs to your property and your roofer doesn't have the required insurance, you'll be the one responsible for the cost. Don't just take their word for it either; ask for proof that they have plenty of up to date, have them provide the insurance documents saying that it is comprehensive and current.

Check your roofing materials before installation.
If you think your roof has a leak, try using a garden hose to spray it down. You will then be able to see if there is really an leak and assess the damaged areas. This is more cost effective than hiring a lot cheaper and quicker than hiring a professional.


Think about using architectural shingles for a roof replacement project.They're more attractive and last longer. Ask your contractor you are considering what associations the company is a member of. The good contractors join industry groups so that they keep up with all the latest technological advances and current information. If they are not keeping up to date, you need to be wondering whether the contractor is fully dedicated to his work. Make sure to ask plenty of questions are clearly answered before letting your roofing contractor begin work.The worst thing you do is keep a question to yourself only to have a problem later on. If the contractor refuses to answer your questions, you probably do not want to work with them.

  2. Thanks for the tips at the moment it is the landlords job for this. That's the only good thing about a landlord lol is they have to make repairs. I do think our roof is almost in need for some maintenance though.

  3. Thanks for the tips! This is so timely for what we're going through right now. Although it's the landlord's job to repair, in our case, we'll be the one to monitor the repair because our landlord has already gone to Canada. To answer your question, sis, we've been living in our apartment six years.

  4. My mom should read this post. Our house in Bulacan is really showing signs of wear and tear and the roof should have been fixed a long time ago. Now, it's quite difficult to fix all the holes in our ancestral home and it has to be changed all together, beams and all...
