Q: How much weight can a gable roof hold?

• <div><p>A standard roof can hold a live load of about 20 pounds per square foot. However, gable roofs often have steeper-than-average slopes, so calculating their weight capacity can be challenging. If the slope of your gable roof is greater than 4:12, the live load needs to be decreased to allow for a larger dead load. Ask your roofer exactly how much weight your roof can support.</p></div>

Q: What’s the difference between wood shakes and shingles?

• <div><p>While the terms are often used interchangeably, wood shakes and wood shingles have notable differences, primarily in their manufacturing and appearance. Wood shingles are machine-cut on both sides, resulting in a smooth, thin, and uniform product. In contrast, wood shakes are typically hand-split or sawed on only one side, giving them a more textured, natural, and rustic appearance. Due to these manufacturing differences, shakes are generally thicker, heavier, and less uniform than shingles. They are also more expensive. Homeowners seeking a more rustic aesthetic often choose shakes, while those preferring a more uniform look may opt for shingles. Both are installed in an overlapping pattern to create a durable, weather-resistant roof.</p></div>

Q: Why do asphalt shingles blister?

• <div><p>Asphalt shingles blister when air gets trapped between building materials, either within the layers of the shingle itself or in adhesives on the undersides of the shingles. As the roof heats up in direct sunlight, the trapped gas expands and creates a bubble in the roof. Eventually, the bubble can pop, leaving an exposed area of decking and underlayment.</p></div>

Q: How do you fully winterize a house?

• <div><p>Complete house winterization goes above and beyond the list we created above. In addition to everything listed, full house winterization also includes:</p><ul><li><p>Performing a home energy audit.</p></li><li><p>Preparing your deck and patio for winter.</p></li><li><p>Learning <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-to-start-snowblower.htm">how to start a snowblower</a>.</p></li><li><p>Replacing smoke detector batteries.</p></li><li><p>Installing outlet gaskets.</p></li><li><p>Installing storm doors. </p></li></ul><p></p></div>

Q: What are the downsides of a spray foam roof?

• <div><p>Spray foam roofs don&rsquo;t stand up well to impact, so they won&rsquo;t <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/foam-roof-vs-tar-and-gravel.htm">last as long as something like a tar and gravel roof</a> and other flat roof materials in areas where extreme weather is common. Due to the reduced durability, you&rsquo;ll also need more frequent maintenance and repairs for a spray foam roof, and those costs will add up over time. Spray foam roofs are relatively uncommon, so you may also struggle to hire a roofing contractor who can install one. </p></div>
