Always make safety your first priority when it comes to fixing your roof. Don't try to fix a leaking roof, for instance, while it is still storming outside. This is very dangerous. Get a bucket to catch the water from the leak until things start to clear up and then you should check on your roof.
-
If you notice that your roof is leaking, wait until the area is dry to start fixing it. A wet roof can become corrupted if you work on it too fast, and it's quite easy to slip. When your roof has dried, you are then able to safely fix your roof.
+
Sometimes shingles leak, but the foundation can leak too. If there is dry rot on your home's sides, you may get water in your home. Look at every entry point, even rotten wood, to see if the problem can be solved for good.

You should choose materials used for your roof in relation of the weather. Clay roofing is a great material if the area that you live in has a dry climate; it can help maintain a comfortable temperature inside the house. Clay tiles applied in damper climates can cause rapid deterioration. If you don't know, ask.
+
When faced with snow, ice, or rain, it is best to postpone your roofing project. If you're working on a wet roof, you're putting yourself at risk of injury or death. If you decide to repair your roof on your own, do it when it's dry and sunny outside.

Insurance is a sign of a reliable contractor. Insurance is necessary to cover any accidents that may happen while your roof is being repaired.
+
It is important that you check the references of any contractor you hire. Follow up on the references, calling previous clients to find out if they are satisfied with the work. Take a drive to the homes, if possible. Drive by the houses your contractor worked at and pay attention to their roofs.
-
If the contractor does not require you to pay up front in full, do not do it. You may have to pay around 25% of the amount to get the job started, but try not to pay more than that. It would be horrible if they did bad work or didn't do everything you thought they would.
+
Get contractor referrals from loved ones. If any of them have done business with this contractor, they can let you know how pleased they were with his overall work. Inquire about how well the yard was cleaned up and what type of guarantee they received as well.
-
If you've already tried to get someone to come out to fix your roof but they won't be there for a while, then you should do what you can to fix the leak temporarily. You can nail heavy plastic to damaged areas. It is not a lasting fix for the leaks, but it'll provide your home with some protection until the proper repairs can be made.
+
After narrowing down your list of roofers, determine which one offers the best warranty. You want to be offered 3-5 years of coverage. It must cover workmanship and defective supplies, and they should also give you photocopies of manufacturer warranties too.
-
Insurance is a must when it comes to roofing. A contractor without insurance can be very dangerous. That's because if he causes further damage to your roof or gets injured on the job, you will be liable for the expenses. Ask if the roofer has insurance in place, and make sure you see written documentation that it is current and sufficient in amount.
+
As you narrow down the field of possible roofing contractors to hire, make sure that you learn about each one's warranty offers. The warranty should last at least three years. The longer it lasts, the better. You'll want a warranty that'll cover things such as issues with the materials or workmanship. You'll also want a copy of the manufacturer's warranties.
-
Do not worry if you are unable to immediately find your roof leak. By utilizing a water hose and some help, you will eventually find it by a process of elimination. Communications can be enhanced by using cellular phones. This is especially helpful in the case of large houses.
+
Check your roofing materials thoroughly before installation. Lots of leaks come from basic installation, such as improper nail lengths and cracked shingles to start with. Only use the right tools for the job.
-
Make sure your roofer has credentials, and make sure thy are current. The need for licensing is nearly universal. Ensure that all documentation is present and in date. Also check out their insurance and Workers' Compensation.
+
The age of your roof can help you figure out if replacement is needed. Most roofs only last about 20 years. If your current roof is installed over an older layer of roofing, you are going to have to redo your roofing in 20 years.
When you are looking for a contractor, look for how long they've been established. A new company is not necessarily bad, but a company with a long history of happy customers is your best and safest bet. A company that hasn't been in operation for too long may very well be run by scammers who will take your money and run.
