"They were kind and efficient. I had to be diligent and push them to do a water test of the roof or else they would have diagnosed it with the wrong issue. But other than that, they were able to perform the work and solve the issue. It ended up needing a flashing maintenance rather than to re-do a whole portion of my roof (big difference... $1,500 vs. $4,500)"

Roofing questions, answered by experts

Underlayment is used between existing shingles and a new metal roof to prevent friction and wear from the shingle granules on the underside of the metal. The underlayment also helps prevent water intrusion and allows expansion and contraction without wearing away at the roofing material.

The placement of snow guards depends on the individual roof, but typically snow guards are placed between 12 and 18 inches from the eaves, though they can be placed as close as six inches and as far as 24 inches from the eaves. A roofing professional can assess the roof and potential snow loads to determine the best placement.

The lifespan of an impact-resistant roof averages 30 to 50 years, depending on the quality of the shingles and the amount of wear and tear it endures. Some high-quality shingles may last even longer. For comparison, a standard asphalt roof lasts about 20 years, so choosing an impact-resistant option can increase your roof's lifespan by 50% or more, particularly in regions prone to extreme weather.

Cool roofs last for roughly 15 to 30 years. You can install a cool roof coating over an existing roof, but keep in mind that this might not be worth it if your roof is near the end of its life expectancy. If your roof isn’t near the end of its life, adding a cool roof coating can make your existing roof more energy-efficient and help it last longer, so you’ll have to weigh the pros and cons.

A roof's ability to handle snow depends on its strength and the snow's weight, as wet snow is much heavier than dry, fluffy snow. While designs in snowy regions often allow for 35 to 50 pounds per square foot, a general guideline is that a typical roof can withstand about four feet of fresh snow, two feet of packed snow, or just one inch of ice. Factors like the roof's age, slope, and support structure also affect its capacity; newer, sloped roofs generally hold more weight than older, flat ones. Ice and ice dams add significant, dangerous weight. Because capacity varies, it is best to contact a professional roofing contractor or the original builder to determine the maximum snow load for your specific home.
