Truly Top-Tier Customer Experience
At Shiner, We Take Multiple Steps To
Protect Your Property While On-Site
What contributes to an exceptional roof replacement in Northern Virginia? Some factors are easy to put your finger on.
For example, the product used on your roof must be reliable and of high quality. The same is true for the crew that installs that product.
But what about the way that crew conducts itself while on your property? Do they do the little things that keep you protected from unintended damage?
The answer is always yes when you choose Shiner Exteriors.
At Shiner, we don’t just assume that every homeowner’s property has the same needs. We take the time to ensure you’re protected in ways that fit your unique circumstances.
The result is a customized approach that’s second to none.
Roof Replacement And Your Property
Residential roof replacement is a large-scale activity. Depending on the size of your home, your installation crew may include as many as 10 or more people.
While working, this crew does multiple things that, if they’re not careful, could negatively impact your property. That includes transferring your old shingles from your roof to the ground. It also includes hauling those shingles away.
What are some of the potential problems associated with these activities? The specific issues vary from home to home. However, the most common concerns are:
- Damage to your shrubbery and other forms of landscaping
- Dumpsters that block your driveway or scrape its surface
- Debris that falls into your swimming pool or hot tub
It’s your roofer’s job to prevent these issues from happening. If they fail in any respect, your customer experience will inevitably be unsatisfactory.
Standard Protection For Northern Virginia Homes
Every roof replacement company should take steps to protect your property. Not everyone does. But the typical company has some standard protections in place.
What are these protections?
For starters, the typical roofer will have a plan for safely removing your old shingles. The elements of this plan may vary. But the goal is to control the transfer of debris from your roof to the ground.
To ensure this happens as intended, it’s common to tarp your shrubs and hedges.
Tarping of pools and hot tubs is also common. So is the removal of furniture and children’s toys from the work area.
Customized Roofing Project Protection
These kinds of standard protections are essential. But are they enough to fully protect your property?
The answer may be no.
Why? Not all properties are the same. You may have needs that don’t fall within the norm.
What’s more, there are blind spots in the typical roofer’s protection plan. This means that your property might not be as well-protected as it could be.
A Different Approach In Northern Virginia
That’s why we take a different approach at Shiner. Instead of assuming you’re like everyone else, we assume that you’re not.
Of course, we take care of the basics. But we don’t take for granted that the basics are enough.
Instead, we treat each home and homeowner as unique and deserving of special attention. We’ve also taken steps to address the blind spots that most roofers don’t even consider.
The Steps We Take As Your Roofing Contractor
How do we know about the special steps needed to protect your home? It’s simple, really. We ask.
And we don’t wait until installation day to pose the question.
Instead, we start the process when you first sign up for your project. That way, there won’t be any surprises or oversights when our install team arrives on-site.
We may also see potential risks you’re not fully aware of. After all, we do this for a living, while you’ll only replace your roof once or twice in your lifetime.
All your instructions and concerns will be relayed to the crew installing your roof. The same is true for the details of anything else we may note during your consultation.
Dump Trucks Vs. Dumpsters For Roofing Material Removal
We also do something else – use dump trucks instead of dumpsters to haul away your old roofing materials.
Dump trucks are the superior option in several ways.
For starters, they don’t take up as much space as dumpsters. This means you’ll enjoy better access to your property during your project.
Dump trucks also don’t scrape or otherwise damage your driveway, a common problem with dumpsters. What’s more, we’ll remove our dump truck at the end of the day instead of waiting for a dumpster pickup time that’s beyond our control.
