The number one reason homeowners attempt to repair a roof on their own is to save money. However, roofing can be complex, and therefore, many homeowners end up spending more money on failed DIY projects than if they were to hire a professional. As experienced roofers, we’ve seen it all. We’re also often the last resort when things don’t go as planned. Take a look at some of the most common reasons for DIY South Florida roofing fails.
Any competent builder will know that the old shingles must be removed before the new ones can be put on. However, many homeowners conducting DIY projects, tend to miss this step or ignore it in order to save time. If the shingles are not removed, the heat trapped between the old and the new shingle can cause wear and tear on your new roof. Oftentimes, this leads to a more costly repair.
Homeowners who prefer DIY roofing repair projects should also know that a specific number of nails must be hammered into place. Manufacturers typically provide such information in the manual bundled with the shingles; however, some instructions may be too technical for those without prior experience.
Without the right safety gear and training, there is a significant number of accidents that can occur during the roof construction process. The risk increases if the new roof is not fitted correctly. We once had a customer who tried to repair cracked shingles on their own but used the wrong applicator and sealant. This caused the roof to leak even more.
DIY South Florida roofing projects can be risky if you don’t have the right training and experience. At Modtek Roofing , we guarantee a team of highly specialized and skilled roofers with years of experience.
