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.

Check out your roof yearly. The most common time of year for a roof to suffer from damage is during the winter and spring months. Therefore, you need to carefully observe your roof during these seasons.

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.

Don't procrastinate replacing worn or broken shingles. It may seem okay to hold back on fixing small problems, but those small problems can balloon into giant issues. Taking care of problems with the shingles immediately will help you to save more money and a lot of problems down the road. Maintaining your roof will extend its life.

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.

If a roofer is making your feel uncomfortable with a sales pitch, politely decline. These people are generally shady and try to make you sign a contract that has you losing out on things so it's a good idea to not allow yourself to work with them.

[http://www.myfaceclick.com/blog/156202/struggling-with-your-roof-try-these-tips/ Take A Look At These Great Roofing Tips] If you are selecting a roofing contractor, they need proper liability insurance. 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.

[http://community.babycenter.com/journal/run9ink/10480792/struggling_with_your_roof_try_these_tips Struggling With Your Roof? Try These Tips!] Find out about warranties from all contractors you are considering. You're seeking out a warranty that will last you for at least 3 to 5 years. The longer it lasts, the better it is. The warranty should cover defective supplies and poor workmanship. The contractor should also provide you with manufacturer warranty copies.

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.
-
Be sure that you're hiring a roofer that has the proper licensing before they do any work. If you don't know what your area requires, you shouldn't take what the roofer says about it as the truth. Instead, contact your local building department and ask them about the requirements.
+
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.
-
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.
+
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.

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.
