With the new year set to usher in a new era as well, you may think that your roof may need a quick once-over. If you do suspect that there is something wrong and you will need a quick repair on your roofing in Maryland or in the nearby areas, it pays to act right away. Nevertheless, be sure to contact an expert in roofing, such as our team at CR3 American Exteriors.
Don’t even think about getting your ladder at all even when you are just planning to clean your roof, much less repairing it. Whether you are a few shingles short or in desperate need of a roof replacement, DIY roof repairs can bring more harm than good, not only in the short-term but eventually long-term. Here are a few reasons to table off any DIY roof repair ideas and instead, schedule an appointment with CR3 American Exteriors.
The Risks Are Simply Too High
The numbers are too horrific to simply overlook, as more than 2,000 people fall off a roof and eventually die. A large percentage involves being in the midst of a DIY roofing project. That means those who simply do not have access to the training and the necessary tools to work on a roof repair project. Add to these risks are the occasional injuries that may beset them, such as bruises and dislocations. The weather can also pose dangers to your well-being. A puddle here or a slip there can mean a horrific fall.
Work with a roofing team that has the best safety equipment, from helmets to boots, and all pads in between. CR3 American Exteriors has the training and experience in working on different roofs, which means we know what to expect when we go up there. We are also licensed and insured, meaning you will not be held liable for the work that we do.
The Results May Not Be What You Expected
A DIY roof repair can also lead to unexpected outcomes that will only lead to higher costs down the road. A quick patch-up job done by unlicensed and inexperienced roofers will compromise your system’s appearance, not to mention its integrity. What should have been a cost-saving move on your end may result in bigger expenses with recurring problems.
You will not deal with this type of issue when you work with CR3 American Exteriors, as we have been certified by top manufacturers to work on their roofing systems. We are an Owens Corning Preferred Contractor, a CertainTeed SELECT ShingleMaster, and a GAF Master Elite contractor. That means these industry leaders trust us to get the results customers want for their roofing systems.
