Your roofing system is arguably the most important component of your home’s exterior and hiring a licensed roofing contractor to repair your damaged roof should be a no-brainer. Still, many homeowners seem to think that it is something that they can do themselves simply they’ve seen a few videos on the internet. In today’s post, your friends over at Genesis Roofing explains why a roof repair job is definitely something that should be left to professionals.
Voided Warranty
Your roof’s warranty is a significant part of your investment and is not something to take lightly. Most if not all roof manufacturers will have specific instructions on how to properly install their products and will require a licensed professional to install them. If you opt to repair your roof yourself, you run the risk of voiding your warranty.
Safety
This should be obvious but it can not be stressed enough. As with all home improvement projects, safety should always come first and working on your roof can be pretty dangerous. You may think you are saving money by not hiring a roofing company but if you fall from your roof, the resulting medical bills will negate any savings and then some.
Poor Workmanship
Unless you’ve had any actual experience on a construction site, you should definitely leave your roof repairs to the experts. Most roof repairs can be complicated and you will need an experienced roofer to do a good job. If you want to avoid errors that can later lead to even more repairs, we suggest that you hire a pro.
