Tile roof in Lake Magdalene

Frequently asked questions - Tile roof

• 1.What should I gather before calling for an estimate?

  Find out your home's rough construction era and locate any past repair invoices. Mentioning ongoing attic leaks, ceiling stains, or plans for adding solar panels helps us calculate tear off difficulty accurately, because older rafters often require reinforcement before supporting heavier products.

• 2.How do you handle property review after work wraps up?

  A supervisor walks your grounds using rolling magnetic sweeps to collect fallen nails from lawn turf. We inspect all valley flashings, run hose water tests across tricky junctions, and review the whole perimeter with you so any shifted garden items get put back right away.

• 3.Which building issues are usually excluded from standard proposals?

  Replacing rotted structural framing, fixing cracked rafters, rebuilding crumbly chimney masonry, or swapping out damaged air conditioning exhaust vents fall outside basic contracts. When our crew uncovers rotten plywood decking around gutters during tear off in Lake Magdalene, we issue separate change orders for the timber.

• 4.Does humid summer weather interrupt the installation schedule?

  Sudden afternoon lightning storms pause tile setting, because wet roof decks create dangerous slipping hazards and prevent hot adhesives from bonding correctly. Crews tear off only small sections at a time, keeping heavy waterproof tarps nailed down tightly so unexpected squalls cannot soak exposed attic insulation.
