The roof provides protection from the weather and negligence to its repair may bring big damage. It prevents the home from the harsh weather so it is imperative to keep an eye on its maintenance. The roof is the upper part that is out of the sight, therefore most of us do not think about its cleanliness or repair. Regular inspection of the roof maintains it as well as increases the life expectancy of the overall house. Roof maintenance is not a difficult task but it will be good if you call the professional for check or seek professional advice.

Check the ventilation:

Vents are important as they keep the proper circulation of the air inside the house. Closed vents may build up trash around which can damage the roof from inside. Moreover, the moisture caused by the blockage will give place to the plants that grow in humid places. Check the vents frequently so that you could not experience other problems.

The growth of moss:

Mosses mostly nest in the shady areas of the roofs that are covered with tiles. These are small plants with no flowers. If you notice this sort of growth on the roof, clean it immediately. It may seem like they are harmless but in fact, mosses are the chief source of moisture that is absorbed by the tiles and eventually damage them. You can brush off the mosses easily with a broom on any nice weather day.

Drainage pipes:

These pipes run down the water especially in the season of rainfall. If there is any barrier to proper drainage, chances of the roof and inner wall damage will rise. Persistent leakage or complete blockage both lead to the moisture absorbance by the roof and walls that will make them frail and susceptible to bigger damage. Different materials for pipes are available as steel, iron, zinc, PVC, and others. It is recommended to use the material of the pipes as required.

Roof tiles:

With time or depending on the weather, roof tiles become cracked or broken. You can go up the roof and check for the damaged tiles for a full view. But be careful and prepared before going on the roof. Wear shoes of good gripping and take a ladder and ropes for safety. If you are not feeling comfortable in doing the inspection by yourself, call the professionals. They will do their job with proficiency and give useful advice for maintenance.

General inspection of any damage:

Now it’s time to finally check the roof from each aspect. Spot any water patch or circle, any stain of rot or growth and tiles if they move from the actual place. There are many protective methods to keep the loft insulated and away from damage. These methods keep the roof safe and your bills cost low.

Mounting a TV or installation of any appliance may give you cold sweats if you are used to the services of professional. Well, no matter how confident you are in doing such sort of tasks, you cannot do it better than a professional. Whether you are moving to a new place or bought a new TV, these tips will help you in mounting the TV safely at home.

Ready to mount the TV?  Let’s start!

Bring the right tools:

Of course, you cannot do it without important tools so first grab the tools you are going to work with.

• Pencil for marking
• A tape measure
• Screwdriver to tighten the bolts
• Drill machine
• Level
• Stud finder or Toogle

Mark the wall and hang the frame:

The first and imperative thing to keep in mind is, just do your work slowly as rushing may harm you or cause any damage to your TV. Collect the tools and devices to be used and slowly do the mounting.

Stud finders and toggles are used to find the studs where you want to mount the TV. A stud finder is usually tricky to use so choose wisely between the two. The frame is needed to be mounted on the TV at the right level. The height of the frame should have the mid of TV screen at eye level when you are standing in front of it. For most of the frames, four bolts are needed that will support your TV fully. Switch on the drill machine and make holes carefully. Hang the frame and tight the screws. 

Now some wiring work to be done:

It is recommended to buy long wires whether you are going to mount the TV on the stand or directly mount it on the wall. Extra wires can be hidden or wrapped up and stuffed in the wall. When cables are short they could damage your equipment. For a flat TV installation with the equipment right below the TV, 8-foot cables would work. If you are mounting the TV higher than normal (36 or 42 inches from the floor) 12-inch cables will be required. Mostly used TV are slim LED so try to avoid bulky connectors.

For running the wires in walls you have two options. If you are certain that the wires are safe for in-wall installation or suitable for putting in the walls then do it. In another case if you are not, then buy a channelling that can simply run from your TV to the outlet. To hide the wiring you can make the outlet behind the TV but it will need a professional.

Place your TV on the mounted frame:

Place your TV on the installed frame. For checking the level you may need a helper to have a final look.
