Q: How do I know if my chimney needs to be repaired?

• <div><p>There are a few things you should look out for that suggest your chimney needs repair. The most obvious of which is leaking around the bricks or stone, which should be addressed by a professional immediately. If you&rsquo;re unsure of its repair status, consider conducting a <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/chimney-inspection-cost.htm">chimney inspection</a>. Some other repair signs include:</p><ul><li><p>Smoky smell in your home when you&rsquo;re using your chimney</p></li><li><p>Visible damage to the bricks or mortar between them</p></li><li><p>Chimney is pulling away from your home</p></li><li><p>Portions of the brick are flaking away or crumbling</p></li><li><p>Visible cracks that travel through the mortar in a stair-step formation</p></li></ul><p></p></div>

Q: How much does a roof inspection cost?

• <div><p>The average cost for a residential roof inspection is typically between $150 and $500, with some homeowners paying as much as $1,000 or more. The national average is around $225. Key factors that influence the final price include the roof's size and complexity, its accessibility (a high pitch can increase cost due to risk), and the roofing material, as specialty types like slate may require a specialist. Other variables are your geographic location, the inspector's expertise, and the specific services included in the inspection. To get an accurate estimate, it is best to obtain quotes from several reputable roofing professionals in your area.</p></div>

Q: Why does my deck pop and not my neighbor’s?

• <div><p>Your deck may pop, and your neighbor&rsquo;s deck may not for a number of reasons. Whether or not a deck pops will depend on how it was made, the conditions it&rsquo;s exposed to, and the materials. Improper spacing is a common reason for increased pressure between deck boards. Moisture penetration is another. </p></div>

Q: Can you walk on torch down roofing?

• <div><p>Yes, you can walk on torch down roofing. It is durable and tear-resistant enough to handle that kind of low-level wear. Remember that torch down roofing can get uncomfortably hot in certain climates. Dark roofing absorbs heat and can burn bare feet. If you want to use a roof deck for lounging, you may want to install a lighter-colored PVC membrane.</p></div>

Q: Are inspections really necessary for new construction?

• <div><p>Inspections for new construction may not be legally required, but you should consider them a must if you&rsquo;re buying a new home. The quality of the construction can vary widely by builder, and many inspections, even for brand-new homes, can uncover problems with framing, structural components, mechanicals, appliances, and more. Professional inspection reports give you leverage to push the associated repair costs to the builder rather than paying for them yourself, so they&rsquo;re always worthwhile, if only for the peace of mind they provide.</p></div>
