  1. What will your roofer do to protect your property? When the roofing contractor you hired shows up to install your new roof, more likely than not they will be removing the old one first. With the removal of that roof comes a lot of falling shingle, metal, and other materials. None of which is likely to be forgiving to your siding, gutters, or foliage if they make contact. While most liability insurance will cover any damage caused during removal and installation, it is better to avoid the hassle altogether. This is why it is important to inquire about a contractor's plan for protecting your property before signing a contract. A LITTLE COVERAGE GOES A LONG WAY There are three methods that you can expect a professional contractor to utilize to protect your home and its surroundings. 1. Standoff Stabilizers For Gutters, trim, and facia When the roofing crew is working on your roof, their only means of gaining access to your roof will be ladders. Ladders that lean against your house typically make contact with the gutters, the

  2. facia, or the drip edge. Each of these areas can become damaged by the ladder impacting them. When a crew uses Standoff Stabilizers on their ladders, the weight and impact of the ladder are focused on the roof deck. 2. Plywood for Windows and Doors Windows, doors, and their frames are all susceptible to damage from falling debris. Putting up slabs of plywood to cover these sensitive areas provides the best protection you could want for your home. 3. Tarps Everywhere! Once the plywood has been the crew should secure tarps from the eaves of your roof and run them down to the ground, extending out onto your property. These tarps not only protect your home from damage now, but they help to ensure a thorough cleanup after the installation is complete. MAKE SURE YOU WILL BE COVERED! Talk to all ​potential roofing contractors​ about their plan for protecting your home and property. You don't want to look up at your new roof only to find a section of gutters missing!
