10 Tips To Prepare For Residential Roof Replacement

Residential roof replacement is not a small home improvement project. It is one of the most important and expensive home improvement projects that you can undertake. Given the importance of roof replacement, you must prepare your home for the project in the best way possible.

This means taking care of all the details, from removing wall decorations and patio furniture to disconnecting decorative light fixtures. By taking the time to prepare your home properly, you can help ensure that the roof replacement process goes smoothly and that your home emerges looking its best. Experts at Superior Roofing shared 10 tips to ensure your new roof installation process is as smooth as possible.

Pay Close Attention To The Kids and Pets

This may seem like an obvious one, but it is worth mentioning nonetheless. The roofing process can be dangerous, so you will want to make sure that your children and pets are out of harm's way. If you have pets, we recommend finding a pet-sitter for the duration of the project. As for your children, you may be able to have them stay with family or friends during the project. If that is not possible, make sure they stay inside while the roofing process is taking place.

Talk To Your Neighbors

A home roof replacement project can be disruptive, not just to your daily routine but also to your neighborhood. As such, it is important to talk to your neighbors before the project starts. Let them know about the project and when they can expect work to be done. This way, they can make alternative arrangements if necessary and avoid any potential conflict.

Relocate Your Vehicles

Your roofing contractor will need unobstructed access to your home to work. This means that you need to clear out any vehicles that are parked in the driveway or on the street in front of your home. If possible, try to park your vehicle in the garage or on another street altogether.

Take Down Wall Decorations

While your roofing contractor will take care to avoid damaging your walls, it’s always best to remove any wall decorations beforehand. This includes things like paintings, mirrors, shelves, and hooks. If you have any valuable or sentimental items on your walls, it’s best to remove them as well.

Identify Several Accessible Power Outlets

Your roofing contractor will need to use power tools during the roof replacement process. As such, you need to make sure that there are several accessible power outlets around your home. If possible, try to make sure that the outlets are located near a window so that the cords don’t have to be run across your floors. Exterior outlets can also be used, provided that they are weatherproof.

Move Patio Furniture

If you have any patio furniture, it’s important to move it away from your home before the roof replacement process begins. This will help ensure that the furniture doesn’t get in the way of the contractor and also protect it from any potential damage.

Cover Belongings in the Attic

If you have any belongings stored in your attic, it’s important to cover them with a tarp or sheet before the roof replacement process begins. This will help protect them from any dust or debris that might be generated during the project.

Prune Tree Branches

If you have any tree branches that are close to your home, it’s important to prune them before the roof replacement process begins. This will ensure that the contractor has unobstructed access to your home and also protect your home from any falling debris.

Remove Antennas or Satellite Dishes

If you have a satellite dish on your roof, it’s important to remove it before the roof replacement process begins. This will help ensure that the contractor can work without interruption and also protect your satellite dish from any potential damage.

Be Aware Of Your Surroundings

During the roof replacement process, there will be a lot of activity around your home. As such, it’s important to be aware of your surroundings at all times. This means keeping an eye on children and pets and making sure that they stay away from the work area. Construction equipment and tools can be dangerous, so it’s important to keep a safe distance from them.

These are some of the things that you need to do in preparation for a roof replacement project. By taking these steps, you can help ensure that the project goes smoothly and that your home is protected. Stay alert for unexpected obstacles and be sure to communicate with your contractor if you have any concerns.
