Q: How many roof vents do I need for a 2,000-square-foot house?

• <div><p>The number of roof vents necessary for a 2,000-square-foot house depends on several factors. The calculation depends on the net free area within the attic and whether your municipality requires a 1/150 or a 1/300 ratio of venting square feet to attic square feet. If you install vents with a square-foot opening of one, you'll need either 14 or seven exhaust vents and an equal square-foot amount of intake vents. </p></div>

Q: What are common issues requiring metal roof repair?

• <div><p>Issues include leaking seams, rusting panels, loose fasteners, and denting from debris or weather, which can cause damage that requires intervention.</p></div>

Q: How often should EPDM roofs be inspected?

• <div><p>EPDM roof installation isn&rsquo;t too complicated, which means an inspection won&rsquo;t be prohibitively expensive&mdash;around<b> $500</b>. These inspections should be carried out once a year in order to notice any deformities or other issues that would need immediate fixing. The saying &ldquo;an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure&rdquo; should be in your mind when considering regular inspections. </p></div>

Q: Are snow guards required by building codes?

"They did a great job. They solved all the problems I had with the chimney and it’s been working perfectly ever since. They also fixed a problem on the roof around the chimney; they replaced the wood around the chimney with a material that would never rot, so they fixed it even better than it was before. It took them a couple of days to do the work. They took care of all the cleanup as well. We've been real happy with them."
