As a homeowner, one of the last things you want to think about is re-roofing your home. In recent years, West Oahu Roofing Inc. (WOR) — led by president and RME Bernard Balais (pictured at right) — has noticed most homeowners have asked similar questions. This article will touch upon those frequently asked questions about your roofing project, and how WOR addresses them.
SHOULD I TEAR OFF MY EXISTING ROOF OR LAY A NEW ROOF OVER THE EXISTING ONE?
There are strengths and drawbacks of both roof installation types. Layovers will achieve a similar look than if you were to tear off. You will receive the manufacturer’s warranty if installed by a licensed roofing professional, and the overall cost will be less because there is less roofing debris removal. However, you are also sacrificing the extra weight your roof will have to endure, and it is difficult for unforeseen repairs to be made.
WOR would recommend tearing off the existing roof because the company is able to check for all necessary repairs, and you would become eligible for an extended warranty guaranteeing workmanship for 25 years. WOR believes this is worth the added cost to perform a tear-off versus a roof layover.
WILL A LARGE ROLL-OFF BIN BLOCK MY DRIVEWAY UNTIL IT IS PICKED UP?
No, WOR does not utilize large roll-off bins for any residential roofing jobs. WOR has a fleet of dump trucks and dump trailers that will be used in the driveway during working hours, and at the end of each workday, WOR removes the dump truck or dump trailer so you can utilize your driveway while the company’s employees aren’t working.
West Oahu Roofing Inc. is a local, family-owned and -operated company established in 2004.
It is the roofing company that will make decisions based on what is best for clients, and is here to work with you.
I AM NOT GOING TO BE HOME DURING THE REROOFING. HOW WILL THE WORKERS USE THE RESTROOM?
WOR sympathizes with employees because the company understands that everyone needs to “go.” Regardless if the homeowner is home or not, WOR always provides its own portable toilet for its employees. This increases the morale of the employees, and it also increases productivity of your job.
