When your home has a worn or damaged roof it should be repaired immediately. According to most state and local laws, in a rental property, it is expected that the property owner will shoulder the responsibility to keep a rental house in a habitable condition. Under no situation should residents be compelled to make repairs to a rental property, even if your resident is capable of mending a roof. Injury or loss resulting from a safety hazard that has not been considered may possibly give rise to a costly legal liability claim for you. The nature of roof repair exposes anyone doing it to safety risks, which is something that successful Williamsburg property owners can’t afford.
Repairing the roof of a rental property might be something you’re tempted to try yourself, especially if just a few shingles need to be replaced. The risk is just too high, both for you and for your rental home. The truth of the matter is, your roof has vulnerable areas that only an expert can truly know. Roof repairs require the right equipment and safety procedures to complete without incident, as well as a bit of know-how. It’s also important to make sure that the repairs are done correctly; any unaddressed weaknesses in the roof may cause further damage to the roof or interior of the house before you even realize they’re there.
