For many of us, once there is a roof over our heads, that’s good enough. We start to think about everything else from insulation in windows to how we’re going to install laundry room cabinets. What we don’t think about is the roof and what the roof actually does. How the roof serves as a snow, ice and water shield, how it protects us from dangerous amounts of UV rays or how in doing both of these things it’s what ultimately allows us to have the opportunity to insulate windows and install laundry room cabinets! No, once most homeowners have a roof over their heads, that’s it. The roof is a roof and from now on you don’t have to think about it. Right? Wrong. In fact, the roof is one of the most important pieces of your home! Neglecting a roof is one of the most common leads to leaks and home destruction. And when trying to sell your home, what do you think the first thing prospective buyers see as they pull up? The roof! The roof is the hair of your house and it’s time for a new ‘do’.
What many homeowners don’t know is that there are roofing requirements. That’s right, there is actually a set of rules and regulations house roofs must meet! And with today’s forever fluctuating weather conditions, the rules have been changing. But don’t worry, if you’ve gotten a letter of compliance and termination recently from your insurance company you’re not alone. Letters in the mail, like these, are becoming more and more common with advancing material technology and the changing weather. And if you don’t want to end up paying unnecessary bills, it’s important to comply to these letters. That’s where a general contractor comes in.
