As Aussie rock heroes the Hoodoo Gurus once sang, ‘There’s no time like the right time!‘ Whether they were talking about roof restorations or something completely different is up to interpretation. But for the purpose of this article, we’d like to think they were talking about roof restorations. To be upfront, it’s generally better to organise roof restorations during the warmer months, but let’s get more in-depth. We’ll give you all the reasons why you should think about what time of year is best to organise a roof restoration.
Temperatures are ideal in warmer months
Roof restorations could include the removal of some tiles in order for them to be replaced. If multiple tiles need replacing, then you’d want weather conditions to be pleasant and consistent. This type of work could compromise the effectiveness of your roof at keeping out external temperatures, so it’s much more ideal for your home to be a little hotter in summer than it is to be a little wetter and colder in winter. This makes spring and summer the best time to do a roof restoration.
Less chance of rain
Rain is another factor to consider when organising a roof restoration. If you live in Far North Queensland, then maybe summer isn’t necessarily the best time to do a roof restoration, as it tends to rain cats and dogs during those months. But anywhere else, and you’re likely to avoid the rain in the spring and summer months. Rain can postpone roof restorations, drawing out the process.
Less demand for roof restorations
The summer months are the time when many homeowners take holidays and travel interstate or overseas. If you’ve got the time for a roof restoration in the summer months, then you’ll have a better chance of organising a suitable time with your chosen roof restoration team.
Prepares your home for the colder months
Having a perfectly restored roof in the summer means that your home will be well-prepared for winter. In the colder months, your roof has to work extra hard to shelter your home from the rain and the wind. It also has to keep the temperature consistent so that you don’t freeze! This is another reason why spring and summer are better for doing a roof restoration.
Don’t wait if it’s urgent
That being said, if you urgently need a roof restoration, don’t hesitate to book one in! If there’s ‘no time like the right time‘, the right time may indeed be straight away.
