new roofA reliable, sturdy roof is crucial for any home build or exterior renovation. It’s not an easy task to install a new roof. It takes a lot to put together a quality roof. There are many layers and structures involved. If something goes wrong, it could cause delays or damage to your property.

There are steps you can take that will make the job of your roofer easier and make the entire process run smoothly. Our roofers have provided us with a list of steps to help you prepare for your roof replacement or installation. These simple tips will help you get your roof up faster and with less stress.

Things To Prepare Before Your New Roof Is Installed

Before Roofers arrive, Make Certain:

  • Make sure your yard and garden are free from light fixtures, furniture, or other obstructions. This includes small items such as wind chimes and potted plants.
  • Your vehicle should not be parked in your garage or driveway.
  • To alert roofers, plants and trees can be covered with tarps, netting, or marked by ribbons.
  • Your roofing professionals should be notified about water features and sprinkler locations. These spots should be clearly marked.
  • To make it easier to spot fallen shingles or debris, you can mow your lawn.
  • Nearby electrical outlets should be ready and functional so they can be used if necessary.
  • All doors, windows, cabinets, and drawers should be closed securely. Important items should also be covered to protect against dust. Items should also be removed from attics or garages.
  • You can take down wall decorations – all that hammering could shake them up and cause them to fall.
  • Let your family and neighbors know when the roof installation will take place so they can prepare.
  • Keep the gates open to roofers

How to live with long installations

Even if the job is a quick one, roofing can take a few hours. Most roofing projects require a lot of time and effort. You won’t want to be there while the roofers work. Keep this in mind as you plan to protect your home and provide comfort for your family.

When your roof is being installed, be prepared to:

  • Avoid exposing children to debris
  • Alternate sleeping arrangements can be made for light sleepers.
  • Cabinets should be secured.
  • Pets should be kept inside and keep them calm.
