Preparing for your commercial metal roofing installation or replacement, but don’t know how long it will take to get done?
The focus of this article will be on the projected time frame of metal roofing installations, the factors that influence this and how Manchester Roofing can help.
As a business specialising in the installation of commercial metal roofing in south east Queensland, we’re often asked how long the job will take to get done.
Generally, we predict that metal roofing installation can be completed over three to five days. However, sometimes installations can take up to two weeks.
You may find that you are able to get a better idea of how long your installation will take once our professional roofing team has inspected your property and is aware of the job specifications.
Understandably, there are several factors we need to take into consideration when it comes to estimating how long your roofing installation or replacement will take. In this section, we’ll discuss it further.
While they may look similar, no one roof or roofing installation job is the same. Taking into account the type of roofing installation you need will help us determine how long we will be working on your property. There are a few different types of roofing installation or replacement. These are:
– full roofing replacement
– roof installation for new builds
– partial roofing replacement
Complexity and size always matters when dealing with metal roofing. A smaller property with a flat roof will take much less time than a job where the roof is pitched at different angles or is quite large.
If you’re arranging for a roofing replacement – be it partial or full – one of the things that influences how long your job will take is the condition of your existing roofing and what’s involved in the demolition process.
On top of that, installing a metal roof takes a fair amount of preparation, so if we also have to factor in a complex removal, your job will likely take longer than you may have anticipated.
Feeding back into our point of how complex your commercial metal roofing installation is, we also have to keep in mind whether the roof on your property is easy to access. Especially if access is on the trickier side, we will need to factor in things like:
– additional equipment
– management of materials
– maintaining efficient procedures
– safety
All of this goes a long way to determining your installation’s duration.
Weather is a real bugbear for qualified roofing installers. The weather has to be optimal (sunny conditions, little to no wind) for your roofing installation to proceed.
If it’s storming – or sometimes even looks close to raining – you may find that the work is postponed until conditions improve. This is for the safety of everyone involved.
When choosing a professional roofing company, you want to ensure that it will be of the highest quality and completed by experts.
