If the time has come for Naples roof installation, Dickson Roofing is the company you want. We’ve worked on some of the most beautiful homes throughout Southwest Florida, so you can rest assured your roof will look great and last for decades to come. A smooth installation requires preparation on the part of the homeowner. Here are some of the things you can do to ensure your installation occurs safely and efficiently.
Clear the Work Area
Before the roofing crew arrives, clear the area around your home. Remove vehicles, outdoor furniture, and other items that might hinder installation. This creates a safe, unobstructed space for the roofing team to work efficiently.
Protect Valuables in the Attic
If your home has an attic, cover or move valuable items and sensitive electronics to protect them from dust and debris that may enter during the roof installation. This precautionary measure ensures that your possessions remain undamaged throughout the process.
Trim Overhanging Branches
Trim any tree branches that overhang the roof. This provides easier access for the roofing team and prevents potential damage to the new roof from falling branches during the installation.
Communicate with Neighbors
Inform your neighbors about the upcoming roof installation. This courtesy gesture allows them to anticipate any noise or temporary inconvenience and enables a smoother process overall. Roof installations can be noisy, especially when removing the old roof.
Cover Landscaping and Gardens
Cover delicate plants, flowers, and landscaping near the house to protect them from falling debris. Roofing materials and tools may create vibrations during the installation, and covering these areas helps preserve your outdoor spaces.
Relocate Pets
Consider relocating pets to a safe and quiet place during the roof installation. The noise and commotion can be stressful for animals, and having them in a secure location ensures their well-being and allows the roofing team to work without any disturbances.
Secure Attic Access
Ensure that the attic access point is secure. This prevents dust and debris from entering your home during the roof installation. Cover items with drop cloths or plastic sheets for added protection if you use your attic for storage.
Create Parking Space for Roofing Crew
Provide a designated parking space for the roofing crew. This ensures they can access their equipment and materials easily, minimizing the time spent carrying heavy loads across your property.
