Q: Are icicles on a roof a sign of poor insulation or another problem?

• <div><p>While a few icicles on your roof are standard, a large accumulation can be a sign of a bigger problem, such as poor insulation. This is particularly true if you are also dealing with ice dams. If you have numerous large icicles, it is recommended to have a roofing contractor diagnose potential insulation issues and create a plan to solve them.</p></div>

Q: Can you put new shingles over old shingles?

• <div><p>You can put new shingles over old shingles, but most municipalities only allow for two layers of shingles before you have to rip off the old roof and start fresh. In some areas, only a single layer of shingles is allowed due to the <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-much-does-a-bundle-of-shingles-weigh.htm">weight a bundle of shingles</a> adds to your structure. In most cases, it&rsquo;s a good idea to remove your old shingles before you install new shingles, especially if you suspect that a roof leak may have compromised the decking underneath.</p></div>

Q: Can I install a slate roof myself?

• <div><p>DIY is not recommended, as slate requires specialized handling and proper underlayment installation for durability.</p></div>

Q: How much does a chimney cap cost?

• <div><p>A chimney cap costs about $300 on average to install, with prices ranging from $75 to $1,000. The final cost depends on several factors, including the professional you hire, the accessibility of your chimney, the cap's material and size, whether any repairs are needed, and if it requires custom fabrication. Chimney caps are usually made from galvanized steel, stainless steel, or copper. Copper caps are the most expensive, followed by stainless steel and then galvanized steel. Excluding labor, average material costs are around $100 for galvanized steel, $250 for stainless steel, and $600 for copper. You may also face additional costs, such as hiring a chimney sweep to clean the chimney before the cap is installed.</p></div>

Q: What is the easiest roof to build?

• <div><p>The easiest type of roof to build is a shed-style or lean-to roof, which features a single sloping plane from one side of the building to the other. Unlike a gable roof with two sides meeting in the middle, a shed roof's single slope makes the construction process more straightforward. The rafters are typically single pieces of wood that span the distance, often without the need for additional supports.</p></div>

The work was done very poorly and now I have to pay another contractor to fix the problem. The contractor returned and resolved all the issues in the roof. He painted my house before doing the roof and his crew did a good job there, the stripping and painting were well done and of good value.
