What to Expect When Roof Doctors of DFW Roofing & Construction Repair or Replace Your Roof
Delivering the Roofing Materials
When the roof replacement contract is signed and the job is ready to go, the suppliers will deliver the roofing materials our technicians need to get the job done. Please move vehicles and make space for the suppliers delivering materials. If you have special instructions, please let us know.
Tearing Off the Old Roof
The process of tearing off the old roof can get messy. While our technicians are always cautious and mindful of your property, we ask you to cover outdoor items you are concerned about, or please move them out of the way until the new roof is done.
Trimming Necessary Trees, Bushes, and Flower Beds, Patio and Pool Areas
When we get to your property to replace your roof, it may be necessary for our crew to trim any branches that are in the way of doing a proper and professional roof replacement. Walkways and recreational areas outside your home might also require moving things out of the way to make room. We appreciate you preparing your property for our technicians.
Light Fixtures, Pictures, and Mirrors
During the process of removing, repairing, and replacing roofs, it is possible that light fixtures, pictures, and mirrors could be disturbed or fall. So if you have collectible plates on the tops of cabinets you should take care to move and secure them before we arrive and begin work.
Wiring and Air Conditioning Lines
There should not be any wiring or necessary lines running directly below the deck of the roof. If you have the opportunity to inspect for or have any of those lines moved before your roof repair, we appreciate that.
Vibration Hazards
The vibration that occurs during the roof repair or replacement process can cause some nails to become loose and the nail heads can become exposed. This is a normal part of roofing work and we are not liable for any further repairs to these areas.
Gutters
Damage to gutters is possible with any roof exceeding 8/12 and Roof Doctors of DFW Roofing & Construction takes precautions to preserve your gutters so they do not need repair or replacement.
Rotted Roof Decking Material
Unless it is stated in the contract, we do not replace any rotted roof decking. We cannot anticipate the condition of your decking and roof until we remove the roofing shingles. If you know of underlying damage to the roof decking material, please let us know before we arrive for your work.
Solar Panels, Antennas, and Satellite Dishes
If you have solar panels or satellite dishes on your roof, they are your responsibility to have them removed from the roof before we arrive for your roof replacement. If you wish to contract with us for that work, please let us know when we negotiate your contract.
Excess Materials
We may have extra roofing materials when we are done with your roof replacement and when the work is complete, Roof Doctors of DFW Roofing & Construction retains and removes those excess materials.
