Some homeowners or business owners may prefer to perform their own maintenance or installation of upgrades around the home or property. This may be due to cost factors or simply personal preferences/skills. However, depending on the extent of the project, this work must often be completed on weekends or during personal vacation time – materials need to be ordered/delivered, cement needs to cure, the weather needs to cooperate, etc. for the entire job to proceed as planned. In essence, this all takes time.
For residential or commercial property owners, time is of the essence when the maintenance or upgrade project relates to roof repairs or replacement. Typically, roof repair is not a do-it-yourself type of project – there are specific skills needed as well as safety issues to be considered – and yet this work usually needs to be done as fast as possible (in terms of actual on-site time) to prevent further damage and/or minimize any disruption/downtime or general inconvenience.
There are several factors that can influence the amount of on-site time needed for roof repairs or replacement for homes and businesses in Toronto.
These factors will include:
- Size/area of the roof (square footage)
- Complexity of its design – slope, angles, skylights, vents, etc.
- Extent of the work – sectional repairs or total replacement
- Additional elements – sub-structure, eavestroughs, soffits, fascia
- Type of roofing material chosen – shingles, shakes, tiles
- Number of crew members working on the roof repair/replacement
- Timing – seasonal weather conditions in Toronto
One of the more common questions asked of any roofing contractor in Toronto, such as Avenue Road Roofing, relates to the time that it will take to complete roof repairs.
Certainly, there are some aspects of on-site time that a contractor can control, including:
- Number of roofers in the work crew
- Number of hours worked per day
- Pre-delivery of materials and disposal bins
However, there are simply too many variables than can affect the scope and length of a roof repair or replacement project. This can make matters difficult for a contractor to definitively answer any questions about on-site time needed to complete the work unless there is:
- A physical inspection of the roof
- Property owner input on choice of roofing material
- An assessment of the urgency for the repair work
Unlike some do-it-yourself property maintenance or upgrades, roof repairs require the expertise and skills of a professional contractor, like Avenue Road Roofing, to get the job done as efficiently and thoroughly as possible/necessary.
