We all know a guy who’s got a tool-belt, a big ladder, and is willing to work fairly cheap – but let me ask you a question? Do you really want that guy to be responsible for your roof, the thing that keeps all the water from falling inside your building?

Keep in mind, that even a little leak can lead to a huge amount of repairs, because water spreads, and the damage is often permanent. That’s why I really don’t recommend it, especially if you’re in a place like Colorado, where the weather can be… a bit problematic. It’s worth hiring an expert for inspections, repairs, and definitely new installations. Personally, I use Apex Roofing & Restoration for all of it.

Saving Time, Money & Headaches, The Easy Way

Can I tell you in one sentence how to make running your business easier, safer, less expensive, and generally less stressful?

Find the best experts for the jobs that need them, discuss exactly what you’re looking for, and then follow their suggestions and let them take care of it. It’s that easy.

I’m not just talking about a single repair job or new roof installation either, I mean long-term, because that’s what counts. I don’t want to just save money today, I want to save money for the next 30 years, while I enjoy my new roof, and the best way to do that is to make sure I don’t have to replace it any sooner.

If you live in Colorado, that means you need to take some extra precautions, because the weather is known to swing between extremes of hot and cold, and it’s not unusual to see driving snow, heavy rains, extreme winds, and occasional hail.. (though usually not all on the same day, at least).

I probably don’t need to tell you, all of that weather can take a heavy toll on a roof, even a high-quality commercial roof.

The Expertise Extension

Whenever I tell someone how long my roof has lasted for, they’re always surprised, probably because it’s a weird thing to be talking about… but also, because most residential or commercial roofs don’t actually reach their full potential lifespan.

They could, but so many homeowners and business owners tend to forget about their roofs and neglect the repairs, that they tend to break down early. That’s why I recommend having a professional take care of it, not just today, but long-term.

With an expert in local roofing styles, and your local climate, you can lock in your current roof for quite a long time, and it will certainly cost less than replacing it early. The best part though, is that it takes out all the stress. Even under the heaviest snow loads or harshest rains, I’ve never worried about a leak, because it’s never been more than 6 months since a full inspection.

You don’t even need to remember to call them every 6 months, if you take my advice. A better option is to find your local expert, talk to them about your specific roof, and set up an inspection schedule in advance, so you can just forget about it.

Specialists Vs Generalists

Going back to our original point, our buddy with a tool-belt and a ladder, it’s not that he’s not a cool dude, or that we don’t want to hire him, but honestly, we can’t afford to.

I know, hiring the general contractor is almost always cheaper, right? Unfortunately, so is the quality of the work – and not because they’re trying to save a buck, but because a generalist will simply never do as good a job as a specialist, in their area of expertise. In the end, getting sub-standard work done will only cost you more money… and truthfully, it’s kind of embarrassing when you have to call in a real expert to fix it.

Roofing specialists are doubly important for commercial buildings, because the extra large spans, flat roofs, and special materials can be more difficult to work with, and a problem can be catastrophic. The last thing you want is a problem that causes snow to build up, and your roof to collapse – all because you wanted to save a few bucks on a contractor.

In many ways, you could say your roof is like the stock market. You need to spend a bit of money up-front to make (or in this case, save) even more money in the long-run, except that when you hire a skilled professional, you’re not making a bet.

It’s a sure thing.

Don’t make a bet on your roof, especially if it’s the roof of your business. Get a local specialist from Apex Restoration & Roofing to take a look instead. Learn how to find one at https://apexroofingusa.com/roofer-vs-general-contractor
