FAQs on New Roofs in Effingham
A concrete or clay tile roof can reasonably be expected to outlast the building it protects. With that in mind, most manufacturers offer warranties of 50 years or more.
Clay and concrete tiles require very little maintenance and rarely needs any treatment. If necessary, professional roof cleaning can be done to remove moss or other dirt and debris as and when required.
Costs will vary depending on several factors such as the size of your roof, the type of slate used, how accessible your roof is and the length of time it may take. While slate is initially more expensive, it can save you money in the long run as it is very hard wearing and durable. Contact us for a free site survey and quote now.
Slate is hard wearing and durable, but it can crack under pressure. That’s why professionals like The Roof Specialist use hook ladders, jacks and planks on slate roofing, allowing them to walk on the roof without putting any weight on it.
Tile roofs are very good insulators. The combined effect of roof tiles, decking and air space between the tiles allows for better air circulation and reduces direct heat transfer by up to 50%.
You’d be surprised. When you factor in cost per year of use, tile roofs are the same or less expensive than several other roofing materials. Both concrete and clay tile roofs outlast most other roof types and many clay roofing tiles have remained functional and beautiful for a very long time.
Costs will vary depending on the size of your roof, the type of tile used, how accessible your roof is and the length of time it may take. No two tiled roofing jobs are the same. Call us and we will be happy to provide a free site survey and a no obligation quote.
Slate roofs are designed to last 100 years or more and when regularly inspected and properly maintained can easily reach this age. To reach this milestone, broken, cracked or missing slates should be replaced promptly by an experienced roofer to prevent serious damage.
Installed properly, slate roofs require little maintenance and will last 60 to 125 years or longer depending on the type of slate used, roof configuration and the geographical location of the property. Some slate roofs have been known to last over 200 years.
Clay and concrete roof tiles are non-combustible and have a Class A fire rating. But a tile roof doesn’t make a home fireproof. However, tile roofing is safer than shingles, wood shake or metal because it allows air circulation under the tile, which reduces heat transfer to the loft during a fire.
