Q: Do metal roofs insulate better than shingle roofs?

• <div><p>Asphalt roofs provide better insulation than metal roofs, but that doesn&rsquo;t always mean that asphalt roofs are better for reducing heating and cooling bills. In hotter climates, metal roofs will usually be better for home efficiency because the material reflects more sunlight and reduces solar heat gain. In colder climates, asphalt roofs are sometimes superior in terms of efficiency because they introduce more solar heat gain to your home and have greater insulating capabilities. However, metal roofs installed with an air gap can provide similar levels of insulation.</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: Does insurance cover a roof tarp?

• <div><p><a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-to-get-know-your-homeowners-insurance.htm">Homeowners insurance</a> may cover the cost to tarp a roof if the type of damage falls within your coverage. For example, roof damage caused by a natural disaster may fall within your plan, and the cost of a temporary tarp may be incorporated. In general, however, simply tarping your roof for renovations will often not fall under insurance coverage. </p></div>

Q: How do I know if my roof vent boot is leaking?

• <div><p>The easiest way to tell if your roof vent boot is leaking is to look in your attic for signs of water damage. You might see visible moisture, water spots, or mold on the roof decking around the roof vent or damaged or soggy insulation below it. If you don&rsquo;t have access to your attic or aren&rsquo;t sure if the vent boot is the issue, hire a professional to come inspect your roof and figure out the underlying issue.</p></div>

Q: How long does a shingle roof last?

• <div><p>Shingle roofing can last anywhere from 15 to 50 years, depending on the type and quality of shingle, your local climate, and how well you maintain your roof. If you live in an area that sees extreme weather, like strong winds, hail storms, or hurricanes, the average life span of a shingle roof will often be on the shorter end, especially if you choose a more affordable roof shingle that isn&rsquo;t designed to persist through extreme weather. </p></div>
