The Role of a Roofing Contractor in Your Home Renovation Project

Roofing Contractor

Renovating your home is an exciting process, but it also involves plenty of difficult choices. When you’re altering your roof, it’s essential to work with a reliable roofing contractor if you want to make the right moves for your home’s durability, longevity and aesthetics. 

How Professional Roofers Can Assist With Your Home Renovation

Why should you consult with our roofers when you’re altering your roof?

Assessing Your Roof’s Current Condition. Before any work is done, you should have your roofing contractors assess your roof as it is. We can search for potential issues that could be dangerous or detrimental to your plans. If we do find any problems, then we can suggest ideal solutions based on your circumstances. 

Additionally, based on your roof’s condition and your renovation vision, our roofers can discuss upgrades or services that could help you reach your goals. 

Ensuring Structural Integrity. Structural integrity is an important aspect of any home. If you plan on changing your roof in any way, such as installing a skylight or adding solar panels, then you need to make sure that your changes don’t hinder your home’s structural integrity. 

We can consider your roof and your plans to assess whether or not your renovation will hurt your home’s structure. Plus, we can also suggest the best ways to carry out your renovation based on our expertise and your wishes. 

We can also offer you professional insights into important topics, such as how long your roof will last. In general, New Zealand roofs last around 50 years, but this number can be lower based on factors like environmental conditions and damage. We at Huston Cross can put together a roof report for your insurance company.

Assisting With Material Selection And Design Choices. Materials play a key role in determining your roof’s durability, longevity and aesthetics. At Huston Cross, we only use top-notch products from suppliers we trust. We use products by Colorsteel and Color Cote, both of which are highly trusted by roofing contractors and homeowners alike. 

If you’re unsure what products or designs to use for your roof renovation, we’ll be happy to provide you with our professional opinions. We can explore your options together and narrow down your choices so that you can make an informed, confident decision. 

Dealing With Unexpected Problems. Even if we plan things perfectly, there’s always a chance that something will go wrong. No worries; we face issues with level heads and positive mindsets. 

For instance, common problems we may discover in your home include rot, water damage and structural issues. These issues may sound daunting, but we will work hard to find sufficient solutions that satisfy your needs.

Ensuring Total Compliance. Whenever you renovate your home, it’s absolutely essential that you follow New Zealand’s building codes. Otherwise, you may need to pay a fine or alter your renovation, which can be costly and time-consuming.

We will look over your plans with you to ensure that they’re compliant. If we see anything that’s not compliant, we will help you find an alternative design that you love. As professional roofing contractors, we always stay up to date with NZ’s building regulations, and we strive to provide our clients with accurate information and expert solutions. 

Promoting Safety And Preventing Accidents. Working at heights is inherently dangerous, which is why we always put safety first. Regardless of whether your renovation project is a major rebuild or a minor alternation, we come equipped with high-quality safety equipment and we always follow protocol.

We do everything we can to prevent harm from coming to our team, your family and your home. 

Offering Warranties. Warranties can give you peace of mind. Home renovations are often major financial investments, so having a warranty can give you the confidence to pursue your renovation dreams. 

At Huston Cross, we offer several warranties. New Zealand Steel has a 20-year warranty on its materials, and we have a 5-year warranty on our work. Additionally, screws, nails and fittings have a 10-year warranty.

Ongoing Support. Our help doesn’t end once your renovation is complete. We’re proud to provide Christchurch homeowners and business owners with various roofing services. After your renovation, we can routinely inspect and repair your roof to keep it in excellent condition.

Maintenance is a vital part of ensuring your roof stays strong and beautiful for many years. We encourage you to give us a call in case you ever notice anything wrong with your roof, such as leaking, visible damage and sagging rooflines.
