Q: How do I secure my roof decorations for Christmas?

• <div><p>You can secure roof decorations like inflatables and other Christmas decor by tying a rope or attacking bungee cords to your roof clips. Depending on the pitch of your roof, you can use sandbags for extra support. Like with Christmas lights, avoid using staples or duct tape. </p></div>

Q: How do I know if my shingles have hail damage?

• <div><p>Your shingles have hail damage if you notice cracks, dents, bruises, or missing granules from your shingles. If you can&rsquo;t assess your shingles from on the ground, contact your home insurance company to file a claim. They can work with you to get a local roofing contractor out to your home for an inspection.</p></div>

Q: Do I really need to fix hail damage on my roof?

• <div><p>In most cases, yes, you should fix hail damage to your roof. For asphalt roofs that experience hail damage, the shingles can crack and tear from impact, potentially exposing the underlayment and other building material underneath to water and pests. You might save an average of <b>$1,100</b> by neglecting repairs, but water damage can cost significantly more. Even on a metal roof, where penetration isn&rsquo;t a concern, the dents hail can leave behind can detract from your curb appeal, potentially making your home less valuable.</p></div>

Q: What are the four types of roof decking?

• <div><p>The four types of roof sheathing are plywood, oriented strand board (OSB), planks, and tone-and-groove boards. The overwhelming majority of homes use the first two (especially OSB) and the other two are not often seen outside of special use cases. Methods of sheathing include solid sheathing, open sheathing where there are gaps, and plank sheathing. Most roofs are solid sheathing.</p></div>

Q: Should I put snow guards on a metal roof?

• <div><p>Yes, installing snow guards is highly recommended for metal roofs, especially if you live in an area with moderate to heavy snowfall. Metal roofs have smooth, slick surfaces that offer little traction, which can cause large, heavy loads of snow and ice to slide off all at once in a dangerous &quot;rooftop avalanche.&quot;</p><p>This sudden release of snow can cause serious injury to anyone below and damage personal property, such as cars or landscaping.</p><p>Snow guards act as a barrier, holding the snow on the roof so it can melt and slide off in smaller, more controlled amounts. While low-slope metal roofs in areas with very little snow might not strictly require them, installing snow guards is a valuable safety measure to protect your family and property.</p></div>
