Hire a Roofing Contractor or Do It Yourself?
Installing a new roof is more than just nailing some new shingles up. A roof, when installed correctly, is an intricate system of separate components that work together to protect your home. It takes training, a thorough understanding of the parts that go into a roof and the tools used to install them, and a great deal of physical labor. Fall short on any one of those things, and you may run the risk of a serious problem or injury.
Many choose to go the DIY roofing route because of the potential to save money. It’s important to note that there’s risk that comes with the savings with a DIY roof. Not only is roofing a dangerous business, but it’s complex one too. A small mistake can lead to water damage inside your home from a leak or ice dams, potentially leading to more maintenance costs in the long run.
