What’s the best climate for copper roofs?

• <div><p>Copper roofing works well in all kinds of climates, but it’s ideal in humid climates because it naturally repels fungus, moss, and algae. This makes it one of the <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/best-roofing-materials-for-cape-cod.htm">best roofing options for Cape Cod homes</a> in the Northeast, as well as homes in the humid southern states and snowy northern states. That said, copper is vulnerable to thermal expansion. If you live in a climate that has extreme temperature changes, your contractor will need to consider this during the installation process.</p></div>

Why do copper roofs turn green?

• <div><p>The green coloration that develops on copper roofs is called a “patina,” and it’s a result of mild oxidation on the surface. The oxidation process is not harmful to your roof. In fact, the surface corrosion acts as a protective layer and won’t spread to the core of your copper roof materials. The discoloration will progress much more quickly in damp or humid climates than it will in dry climates. If you don’t like the green color, you can seal your roof to preserve the shiny, rose-gold look.</p></div>

Q: Do repairs include weatherproofing?

• <div><p>Yes, many services provide waterproofing and sealing to protect against moisture and weather damage.</p></div>

Q: What questions should I ask my hail damage repair professional?

• <div><p>The first thing to ensure is you are hiring an approved contractor to repair your roof so your insurance can cover the cost. As always, shop around until you have a handful of quotes so that you get the best quality for the price you&rsquo;re paying.</p><p>When researching a roof repair contractor to repair hail damage, first ask if they&rsquo;re licensed, bonded, and insured, as this protects you and your property. Always check upfront fees, availability, turnaround, and cost or discounts. Finally, I always look up their reviews to make sure other people who have done similar projects have had great results.</p></div>

Q: Does rock salt make your car rust?

• <div><p>Salt is corrosive to metal, and when it&rsquo;s mixed with air and water, that corrosion increases. While this compound can cause your car to rust, it takes years to cause damage. However, once you see rust, it&rsquo;s probably well advanced. Winterize your car and avoid driving before or immediately after ice storms to reduce rock salt effects.</p></div>

Quick completion, cleaned up well. Disappointed that they had to return after the first rain to seal around the chimney to stop a small leak. Will have a better idea of how they did after the next rain. Otherwise a good experience.
