WHY WOULD YOU PLAN ROOF RESTORATION RATHER THAN REPLACEMENT?

Roof restoration services can extend the lifeline of your roof and choose an economical alternative to full roof replacement and repairs while you enjoy safety and structural strength of your existing roof that is restored. In short, restoration caps up or tops up the existing roof layer with a protective coating, which covers up all the existing problems and faults, and then gives the roof a structural strength and stamina to fight against the elements of nature for many more years.

HOW ROOFS ARE RESTORED?

Roofs, whatever material they are made up of, can be restored using one or the other form of treatment. Some treatments would use tar or bitumen on the roof, while other would use a spray of cement mix or a coating of iron, and so on. There are plenty of ways to add to the existing coat of the root, and it can be decided based on the top coat and structure or make of the roof.

WHY ROOF RESTORATION IS A BETTER OPTION THAN REPLACEMENT

Roof restoration is a better option compared to roof replacement because in replacement you break the existing roof structure, and lay a completely new roof, which is highly expensive. It’s a huge project, definitely time taking and costs high too.

Restoration is an alternative to replacement which comes with little planning, in a comparatively much lower budget, and also help you save on tax, and is a great way to enhance the roof life and health for a good many number of years. This brings you more in control of your expenses, time and planning, and also satisfies your needs while protecting your building. The restored roof looks aesthetically warm after the job is done.

ADVANTAGES OF ROOF RESTORATION:

The main advantages of going for a roof restoration are as follows:

  1. The time taken to restore the existing roof is really low.

  2. The restoration project is a big money saver, thereby costing almost one third of what it may take for repairing or replacement.

  3. The top layer of the roof or damaged patches are not stripped off, and no part of the existing roof is damaged, cracked, or broken in the process. Hence, people using the property need not seek another shelter, and may continue their lives uninterrupted.

  4. No smoke or toxic fumes are produced in the process, thereby making it absolutely safe for the property users and neighbors.

  5. Roof replacement makes you pay more taxes on the property, whereas restoration is seen as a maintenance activity, which makes you pay lesser taxes and thus is money saver.

  6. You can claim for insurance cover from your property insurance for restoration if you show proper reasons for the step which tells how you bypassed a costlier repair or replacement and managed by this process while recovering faults.

  7. Restored roofs are as good as repaired roofs with great finish and looks, good structural strength and lovely support that can help you go on another 10 to 12 years.

  8. When you break and replace the old roof, the concern of dumping the waste gets added while you are burdened with ecological disturbance related factors. This is not happening with restoration, and you simply add a protective layer to the used and weathered roof to strengthen it.

WHEN IS THE TIME TO GO FOR ROOF RESTORATION

The first signs of damage and weathering on the exiting roof must be noticed in order to plan a timely roof restoration. Small cracks, pits, patches of chipped off shingles or concrete, all suggests that the roof is aging. Water damage, molds, soft patches that cracks off, all shows off signs of deterioration, and tells that the roof needs care and maintenance. And when you see that, it’s time to restore the roof.
