Protecting Your Home Exteriors When Installing a Roof on Your Property

Your home’s exterior, be it your patio, garden or lawn, are more than just aesthetic elements — they also contribute significantly to your property’s value. When planning a roof installation, make sure they’re protected from the mess.

As a top-quality GAF roofer, Deschutes Roofing discusses how to prepare ahead before the start date of the installation.

Moving or Covering Outdoor Elements

One effective way to protect your garden and other outdoor elements is to cover or move them at a safe distance away from the work area. Lawn ornaments, grills, and patio furniture should be stored safely indoors. For heavy or permanent structures, consider using tarps or plastic sheeting to protect them from falling debris.

Communicating With Roofing Company

A constructive relationship with your roofing company is vital. Always express your concerns about protecting your home exteriors. Responsible roofers are inclined to respect your concerns and adopt the necessary techniques to prevent damage.

Managing Debris

During a roof installation, it’s inevitable for debris to scatter. Preparing properly, such as with gutter cleaning or snow removal, in case of a sudden weather change is essential. A reputable roofing company will also ensure targeted debris management and cleanup to maintain the integrity of your home and property.

Using Protective Materials

Protective materials like plywood, tarpaulins, and fencing can be used to guard immovable structures and landscaping elements from potential damage. Plywood can protect windows, while fences can keep larger debris from damaging the surrounding landscape.

Inspecting the Area Post-Installation

Post-installation inspection is critical. Any debris or nails left behind can impair the look of your home’s exterior. Coordinating with your roofing company to conduct a thorough cleanup helps restore your home’s aesthetic appeal.
