Q: What are the benefits of wood shake roofing?

• <div><p>Wood shake roofs are durable, energy-efficient, and offer a natural aesthetic. Composite options provide similar looks with less maintenance.</p></div>

Q: 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>&mdash;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>

Q: Does flashing go over or under shingles?

• <div><p>Generally, roof flashing is installed under the shingles to create a watertight seal and prevent moisture from seeping in and causing damage. However, the exact placement can depend on the type of flashing. For instance, with step flashing, the shingles and flashing overlap each other, meaning the flashing is technically both over and under the shingles. Flashing also typically goes beneath the house siding and is often not visible from the ground.</p></div>

Q: Do all houses have eaves?

• <div><p>Some homes, like those with flat roofs, may not have eaves at all. Some contemporary-style homes also lack eaves, although many may have abbreviated eaves to divert water and protect the walls and foundation. Homes without eaves often have specific <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/choose-right-gutters-your-home.htm">types of gutters</a> affixed directly to the edge of the roof to provide adequate drainage.</p></div>

Q: Should you close or cover gable vents in the winter?

• <div><p>No, you should not close or cover your gable vents in the winter. While it might seem logical to block cold air, heating your home creates hot air that rises and can cause condensation in the attic. If the vents are covered, this moisture becomes trapped, creating an ideal environment for mold and mildew. Keeping the gable vents open ensures proper ventilation, which helps dry out the attic, maintain even temperatures, and prevent moisture-related damage.</p></div>
