Questions about your next roofing project?
Let us answer them!
A roof has for functions to protect the building from bad weather.
However, after an average of twenty years, a roof can present problems, moss can develop, or the tiles can become porous. For some roofs asbestos removal will be necessary.
How to do a roof maintenance and painting?
Roof maintenance should be done approximately every 10 years. Paints have been developed especially for roofs. Before applying the paint, the first step is to clean the tiles with a high-pressure water jet. This first step removes the moss stuck on the tiles. Then, the specialist will apply a paint that will make them perfectly waterproof. For slate roofs, the specialists apply a water repellent after stripping. The water repellent for slate tiles can be used for clay tiles.
What is the price of a mandatory insulating pvc roof underlayment?
The roof is divided into three main parts: the roofing, the insulation and ventilation system and the framework. The ideal for a perfect roof is to reinforce each part or to use the best materials or techniques that can ensure their longevity and waterproofing.
Is under-roof insulation or underlayment mandatory?
The sub-roof is the space between the roof and the frame. The obligations related to the under-roof depend mainly on the geographical area where there is a lot of wind and humidity. The protection of the under-roof is therefore mandatory for low slope roofs on the coast. To insulate the under-roof, we use a so-called under-roof screen or underlayment for roofing. This screen not only protects against water and snow infiltration, but also against dust and insects. Many people wonder if this obligation should not be generalized since the damage that can be caused by a roof that is not completely waterproof can be very expensive, much more expensive than the installation of a roof underlayment.
