"Everything went great -- initial consultation, installation, account set-up and ongoing monitoring. The alarm went off twice in the past year. The first time, my dog set it off because I had a motion-detection monitor in a place that wasn't high enough. I was in a meeting at work and didn't receive the call from the monitoring entity, so the police were notified and came to my home and inspect (everything was fine). The second time, I accidentally triggered the alarm myself while at home. The monitoring service called me, I provided the passcode to prove it was me and everything was alright, and the police were not notified. So this basically works just like any costly alarm service -- with the same level of quality, professionalism and customer service -- but is far less expensive. I paid about $100 for the equipment and the monthly monitoring fee for the plan I selected is $42.99, which includes remote access to activate and deactivate the system (through an app available for Apple and Droid devices). I couldn't be happier with FrontPoint.

Chimney Inspection FAQs, answered by experts

Fall is widely considered the best time of year to replace a roof. The moderate temperatures are ideal for roofing crews to work and for new shingles to seal properly. Additionally, autumn weather is often drier, reducing the risk of weather-related delays compared to the rainier spring season.

While spring is also a viable option, the higher chance of rainfall can slow down the project. The main drawback to a fall installation is that it's the peak season for roofers, which can lead to higher prices and scheduling challenges.

To potentially save money, you could consider scheduling your roof replacement during the summer or winter off-seasons. However, both seasons have significant disadvantages. Extreme summer heat can make shingles too soft to handle, while winter's cold, snow, and ice can create dangerous working conditions and prevent shingles from sealing correctly, as they typically require temperatures above 40-45°F.

Yes, many chimney professionals offer cap installations to prevent debris buildup and animal entry.

Common issues requiring slate roof repair include leaks, loose or missing tiles, cracked or broken slates, and failing or deteriorating flashing. Timely repairs are essential to prevent water damage and maintain the roof's protective standards.

A roof certification is a bit like a warranty, but it doesn’t involve the installation of a roof. You will receive a roof certification after a roof repair job. The roofer gives you a limited warranty, guaranteeing the work for a period of time, usually a year or more. This can be helpful if you’re trying to sell your home after completing roof repair work.

The roof warranty is part of a new roof installation. It protects you against defects in the materials for usually 20 years or more. Many roof installers include workmanship warranties, which protect you against installation errors, for about five years or more.

Maintenance involves regular inspection of connections and cables, ensuring they are free from obstructions and functioning correctly to avoid ice buildup.
