Can I Install Tile Roofing on My Own?

Nowadays, you can search the internet for a guide to do practically anything. A lot of the times, you can even find a guide to do something you would normally ask for professional help with. Well, if you're thinking about trying to install tiles on your roof, consider the following things you'll need to do:

  • Take the time to make sure that your roof is strong enough to handle the weight of a tile roof (which is often heavier than more common roofs).
  • Be sure to reinforce your roof against a possible collapse (I.e., make sure there aren't any rotting boards or beams).
  • Definitely order extra tiles so that you can account for possibly damaged tiles when you're handling them. It's best to aim for 25-40% of the tile amount you expect for your roof in total.
  • You need to use the appropriate underlayment for Washington. Depending on what region you live in, the material recommended in an online guide you found online may not be suitable for your roof. Different temperature ranges, along with varying levels of humidity and moisture, will cause you to use the appropriate materials.
  • If you want the work to be done efficiently, you'll need to rent a boom lift in order to move those heavy tiles up to the roof.
  • You're going to have a lot of material you'll need to throw out in this repair, so you'll probably want to rent a dumpster (for all of the removed tile and possible damaged tiles in the process of the repair).
  • To make sure that tiles won't overlap unevenly, you need to implement the furring strips properly.
  • Of course, you'll need to consider regional building regulations and codes (I.e., the required permits and inspections).
  • If you don't want the tiles to get blown off, you need to be aware of any hips or ridges.

But that's all, really.

Replacing your roof is a huge investment, and nobody wants to make the wrong decision. You could try doing it yourself, but you'll probably end up with a leaky roof that will cost you more in repairs than if you had just called Cook Roofing from the start. Call us today at 816-680-6996 for an obligation-free estimate! We can help finance your deductible. If we're not able to help with financing, we can still get you started on getting your insurance claim process rolling by helping inspect your home and giving advice on how best to go about this process. Once we come out and give you an estimate, there's no pressure; take as much time as you need before making any decisions.
