"I called on Friday to inquire about an estimate; Mike came Monday afternoon to give us a quote and repair the roof.  Given the number of competitors that don't even call back, I was impressed with their prompt response.  We knew we had some shingles that had blown off and we knew there was a leak around the vent for the furnace, but we trusted Mike to inspect the rest of the roof and make these and any additional necessary repairs.  He found several more problem areas than we were aware of and also identified a few ways in which our roof was installed improperly, which likely led to the shingles blowing off.  He seemed quite knowledgable and gave us an honest assessment of our roof (which wasn't great news).  He offered ballpark quotes on both cost and timeframe for repairing vs. replacing the roof so we could make a more informed decision.  In the end, we decided to repair for now and replace at some point in the future.
We will have Mike come back to give an official estimate when we are ready to replace the entire roof, but we will also get some estimates from competitors (which we didn't do for this repair; we just wanted it fixed quickly).  We felt like the cost of the repair might have been a bit high considering that the work was completed with only 2-3 hours of labor.

Chimney Sweep questions, answered by experts

DIY is not recommended due to the complexity and potential structural issues. Hire professionals for thorough and safe repairs.

Pricing a fire-damaged house is tricky, and it’s best to involve some professionals. First, get a comprehensive repair estimate from a fire damage restoration expert. Next, have a real estate agent get you an as-repaired value for the home, which represents what the house would be worth if fully repaired. Subtract the repair estimate from the as-repaired value to get the as-is value.

In many cases, professionals can completely remove certain types of smoke damage from walls and ceilings, but it’s only possible if the damage is minor. For more extensive damage from major fires, you’ll likely need to replace the damaged materials entirely. Some items, like upholstered furniture, are much trickier to clean and might need to be replaced even if the smoke damage is minimal.

Neglecting to clean your chimney can lead to serious safety hazards. A primary risk is the buildup of creosote, a highly flammable substance that can ignite and cause a dangerous chimney fire. This buildup can also create blockages in the flue, resulting in poor venting of smoke, soot, and toxic gases like carbon monoxide, which can then enter your home and create dangerously poor indoor air quality. Additionally, creosote is acidic and can damage the chimney's mortar and metal components over time, potentially allowing smoke to leak into your house. To prevent these issues, it is essential to schedule an annual chimney cleaning with a professional.

Ozone smoke removal uses an ozone generator to eliminate stubborn odors from sources like house fires, wildfires, or cigarette smoke. Ozone (O3) is a highly reactive, unstable gas that neutralizes odors by oxidizing the organic compounds it comes into contact with. During this oxidation process, ozone "donates" its extra oxygen molecule to the smoke particles, effectively eliminating their smell, with oxygen being the primary byproduct. While ozone can be effective for removing smoke smells from building materials and belongings like wood furniture, this treatment is best left to a professional, as improper use of an ozone generator can be dangerous to your health.
