How do I find a roofing company I can trust?

• <div><p>After you take steps to determine when your roof was last replaced, you may realize you need a new one. <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-hire-roofing-contractors.htm">Hiring a roofing contractor you can trust</a> involves asking for references and examples of past work. Verify any qualifications the roofer provides. Ask about the expected time to complete the work and about putting guarantees in writing.</p></div>

Q: Do roofers need to be licensed?

• <div><p>Many states require roofers to be licensed, and some states don&rsquo;t mandate licensing. You can use Angi&rsquo;s <a href="https://www.angi.com/angi-license-check.htm">state licensing tool</a> to check if a roofing company holds the proper licensing for your area. A licensed roofing contractor will provide reliable roof installation service, leading to a reduced risk of leaks in the future, which can be expensive to repair. Paying more for a licensed roofer upfront often means paying less over time.</p></div>

Q: Is it normal for the inside of a roof to be wet?

• <div><p>Condensation can occur on the inside of a roof, but it should always be temporary. It does not necessarily mean there is a roof leak. Condensation happens when the inside and outside of a house are at different temperatures. For instance, if it is hot during the day and then gets very cold at night, the inside of the house will be warmer than the outside and may cause condensation to form on the inside of the attic. This may not be cause for concern, but if it is happening frequently, it should be addressed; otherwise, it could cause roof leaks, compromise the structural integrity of the wood, or allow mold to grow.</p></div>

Q: What happens if a house is not winterized?

• <div><p>If a home isn&rsquo;t properly winterized, the pipes can freeze and burst, causing flooding and massive property damage. It can also leave your house susceptible to pests, which can infest it and cause significant damage. Winterizing a home can prevent many potential issues and save you money on costly repairs.</p></div>

Q: Can roof raking damage shingles?

• <div><p>Roof raking can damage shingles if improperly done. Be sure to use a rake that&rsquo;s designed specifically for removing snow from a roof, and don&rsquo;t use excessive pressure. Light, consistent pressure to pull down the bulk of the snow is all that&rsquo;s needed&mdash;if you clear right down to the shingles, you&rsquo;re probably using too much force and risking roof damage.</p></div>
