What’s the difference between a roof estimate and a roof inspection?

• <div><p><a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/do-i-need-roofing-estimate-or-inspection.htm">Roofing estimates and inspections</a> are not the same thing. Roofing inspections (whether done with a drone or by the traditional method) help you find any damage or defects on a roof. You will pay a set fee for a roofing inspection and use it to get certification or to determine whether repair or replacement is necessary. Beware of unsolicited contractors coming to your home and offering a so-called <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/free-roof-inspection.htm">free roof inspection</a>—these are often scams.</p><p><a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/4-tips-get-best-roofing-estimate.htm">Roofing estimates</a>, on the other hand, are typically free and offered by a roofing company hoping to earn your business. Some roofing estimates are performed with drones, while other companies will still opt to send people up onto the roof. Either way, the estimate is for roof repair or replacement costs the company wants you to hire them for. </p></div>

Does paint damage shingles?

• <div><p>You can damage your shingles if you use the wrong type of paint on them. You should always use acrylic latex paint specifically formulated for shingles. Other types of paint may trap moisture, which can cause bigger problems like rot and mildew. Considering that <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-much-does-roof-replacement-cost.htm">roof replacement costs</a> $9,100 on average, it’s definitely best to avoid making this mistake.</p><p>Besides using the right paint, remember that painting your shingles will require increased maintenance.</p></div>

Q: How long does spray foam roofing last?

• <div><p>A <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-long-spray-foam-roof-lasts.htm">spray foam roof lasts</a> 20 to 30 years if installed and maintained correctly. Spray foam roofs should be recoated every 10 to 15 years to maintain the UV protection and waterproof surface of the foam material. The longevity of spray foam roofing will depend on the thickness and density of the foam, the protective coating, and how well it&rsquo;s maintained.</p></div>

Q: Can I install tile roofing myself?

• <div><p>Due to the complexity and weight of tiles, DIY is not recommended. Professional installation ensures proper alignment and durability.</p></div>

Q: Are there eco-friendly roofing options available during the assessment?

• <div><p>Yes, materials like cool roofs and solar shingles may be considered.</p></div>

It started well, but they slapped on the last fifth with a different mortar. The difference in color is clear even after a month. They said the would put a nice cap on the chimney but instead out a 4” thick concrete crown on that is 3” wider that the chimney. It just catches more rain and snow...
