What Should I Ask a Roofer About Protecting My Yard During a Roof Job?

Before a roof job in Myrtle Beach, ask the roofer how they will protect your landscaping, where the dumpster or trailer will go, how they collect old shingles and nails, and what the final cleanup includes. A good roofer will answer clearly and put cleanup in the written estimate so there are no surprises.

What Questions Should I Ask?

• How will you protect flower beds, shrubs and the AC unit?
• Where will the dumpster or debris trailer be placed?
• How do you pick up loose nails?
• What does the final cleanup include?

Why Do Nails Matter?

A tear-off can scatter roofing nails into the yard and driveway, which can puncture tires and hurt bare feet. Ask how the crew sweeps for them.

What Can I Do Before the Crew Arrives?

Move cars, patio furniture and grills away from the house, and keep kids and pets clear of the work area. See what happens on roof replacement day.
