How Long Do Roof Repairs Take to Complete?

How long will your roof repairs take?  Here, are some insights.

 When it comes to determining how long a re-roofing or tear off project is going to take to complete, obviously the biggest determination is the building’s size and square footage. Clearly, if a commercial building is a million square feet, then it is going to take longer than if you are doing a smaller home or office building.

 For the majority of people looking to get re-roofing work done, though, they are looking at just a matter of days for a typical project. In most cases—weather permitting, of course—we can get a 5,000-square-foot building completely re-roofed in a matter of two days.

 Some really large roofing companies can actually do tear off construction jobs like that in one day, but that is only because they might have 50 people on their job site. But the roofer that you hire should be able to handle a 5,000-square-foot tear off roofing project in a matter of about two days—that is a good average.

 The way some contractors do larger projects is by using a system called phasing. That means that if work has to be done on a larger than usual roofing project then only that much of the roof each day is torn off, rather than tearing off the entire roof at one time.

 Specifically, what happens in a phasing project is that a certain portion off the roof is torn off each morning, and then the same section is re-roofed during the day. At the end of the day, the new seam is waterproofed —which marks the edge of where work stopped for the night. Then, the next morning work starts by tearing up the water seam just installed and beginning work on the next section of roofing.

 This is really the only way to work on large projects, because contractors did tear off the entire roof and then a bucket load of rain started that night there could be thousands of dollars worth of personal property or computer and electronic equipment damaged. So clients are kept safe by using this phasing system when working on any large tear off roofing projects.

I work for a contracting company and recently we changed the roof on a house that was damaged by a storm. The insurance company sent a check to pay for the work done on the roof. The check was drawn out to the owner of the house and the mortgage company, the owner told the mortgage company to keep the money from the insurance settlement to pay for his past mortgage payments and now the owner has not paid us (the contractor) and the mortgage company refuses to hand over the proceeds to us (the contractor), when the roof has been completely repaired. Is this legal?
