"They advised us to run the fireplace when the ice forms. They said most fireplaces aren't insulated and it's a common issue."

"Contacted this company three months ago. For removal of a beehive and masonry work around the chimney, the company came out twice to to review the work needed to be done, sent a contract to our company and then waited on an appointment to get the work completed. The company was unresponsive and finally scheduled the work to be completed. The contract sent reads money would be paid upon completion of the project and sent an invoice prior to the job being completed. I called this company all week, sent an email and they failed to show up for the job nor did they bother to respond to our emails and phone calls. Unprofessional and lack of communication led us to secure another contractor."

Chimney Caps questions, answered by experts

Copper roofs last an average of around 100 years, making it one of the longest-lasting types of roofs. It’s significantly more expensive than an asphalt shingle roof, but it also lasts three to four times as long, providing great value for the money. You can extend the life of your copper roof by carrying out routine maintenance, like scheduling annual cleaning and roof inspections.

You can only overlay a roof once. Any additional layers of shingles will add too much weight and may also violate building codes. Once your roof has had an overlay, you’ll need to have a full roof replacement, including a tear-off of all existing roofing materials, when it’s time for a new roof. 

Hail is unlikely to damage a tar and gravel roof because the hailstones will hit the protective gravel rather than your delicate roof membrane. A tar and gravel roof is the most resilient flat roof option, which means it’s the best one for areas that see hail, fallen tree debris, and blown debris from intense winds.

In general, hailstones need to be at least one inch in diameter to cause damage to a roof. Smaller hailstones can also cause damage, but usually only if accompanied by strong winds or striking aging roofs in poor condition. Obviously, the larger the hail, the more potential for damage.

The minimum recommended slope for a porch roof is 1/4:12, which means 1/4-inch of rise every 12 inches of run. Slopes of 3:12 and 4:12 are more common and provide faster drainage for runoff. Make sure to choose a pitch that’s appropriate both for the climate in your area and the type of roof material you install. Hire a roofer if you need help determining what the right roof pitch is.
