Pay attention to the choice of roofing materials when there is an attic
When repairing your roof it is equally important to choose the right roofing material and to make the right box for it. This calculation is made taking into account the length of the beams and their angle of inclination.
The roofing material can be thin, mixed or solid. For example, a metal tile, corrugated board or slate is attached to a thin cord and a soft roof – only to a solid.
When choosing a roof, you need to ask Little Falls Roofers for information about its performance. The durability and reliability of the roof structure will depend on them. The roofing material should also be selected taking into account the specific area of New Jersey region and its climatic conditions, in particular factors such as extreme temperatures and strong winds.
An important factor is the weight of the roof covering, especially if the attic is installed on old walls. Therefore, you need to estimate the weight of the roof in advance and find out how much the load will increase on the building structure and whether it will be acceptable. Most often, a soft roof or undulation is used to cover the attic, as these materials are one of the lightest and easy to install.
To calculate the total weight load of the roof on the walls, you need to multiply the weight of one square meter by the area of the entire coating. Almost 3 tons are provided only by a very light roof cover with a box and also a very light type of insulation. But that’s not all! The roof is affected by snow loads in winter, plus wind pressure, all year round. These parameters are also taken into account when calculating the necessary wooden structural elements of the beam system and the floor beams and when taking into account the total load of the roof structure on the walls and the base of the building.
After Little Falls Roofers complete the installation or repair of the roof, they proceed to the installation of insulation on the attic walls.

Let the experts evaluate your roof
The fact is that not every attic can be remodeled. So that in the bowels of the sloping roof of the house it is possible to arrange living spaces, it must be large enough. It is unlikely that you will enjoy life in cages with low, literally oppressive ceilings. Therefore, a room height of at least 2.5 m is required.
It is clear that the sloping roof level limits the full living space. But there is a limit to everything. If more than half of the attic is less than 1.8-2 m high, it is better to leave the attic or decide on a major reconstruction of the sloping roof by Gikas Roofing Experts.
