"I hired Steve Tolmie from Coat of Arms Roofing in April 2021 for a job in Portsmouth NH. He gave a quote of $17K to do the job and asked for half up front. I should have been alarmed when he became very pushy about getting his deposit check. I signed the contract on Friday and told him I would meet him at noon on Monday to give him a check but he kept pushing me to meet him earlier than that. I held my ground, met him at noon, and gave him a check (which he asked to be made out to his personal account, not his professional account.. another red flag). The job was estimated to take 2 weeks and Steve asked me to rent a lift for one month in case bad weather slowed things down. During the first week, Steve never showed up to do any work. I called multiple times to try to figure out when he was coming and his wife told me that he was out quoting other jobs, but that he'd get to it soon. He never did. He showed up for an hour here and there he never stayed for more than an hour and most days he never showed up at all. I continued to try calling after several more days past, but then my calls started going to a prank recording of Donald Trump. Finally, a month went by and the lift needed to be returned. Steve performed a total of 6 hours of work on an 80-hour job and repaired less than 10% of my roof. I involved my contractor and a city official in Portsmouth to speak with Steve and he repeatedly promised that he was coming back to finish but he didn't. Instead, he took off with $8500 of my money and finally disappeared. I've never heard from him again. My lawyers are now involved and we are filing a claim to recoup my losses. However Steve lives in a trailer in Raymond and we're not sure if he may have used all of the money on drugs, as his inconsistent behaviour and continuous lying was consistent with an addict, although I cannot confirm he's doing drugs. While this has been a horrible situation for me, and I feel I've been taken advantage of, I would feel much better knowing that I may help to stop this from happening to anyone else. So please do not hire this man. He lies. He doesn't do the job, and he will take your money. Hopefully someday I will recoup my losses, but I'd love for others to avoid this type of disaster all together. - Jessica, Portsmouth NH"

Chimney Caps questions, answered by experts

Unfortunately, there’s no definitive answer to this question, but the wind rating of your shingles will give you a good idea of what wind speeds can damage your roof. If you’re concerned about damage, inspect your roof following windy conditions to look for signs of wind damage to your shingles. When in doubt, consider hiring a professional who fixes roofs to carry out an expert inspection. Remember that hurricanes, tropical storms, and tornadoes are likely to cause the most damage, but even severe thunderstorms can bring winds that compromise your roofing system.

A well-maintained tile roof can last up to 100 years—but it depends on the type of tiles. Clay and concrete tiles are the most durable and last anywhere from 30 to 100 years, depending on maintenance. Metal roofing generally lasts 40 to 70 years, and composite roofing lasts 20 to 50 years.

The best way to know if your roof can support solar panels is to hire a structural engineer. They’ll look at your roof and approve the design of your solar panel system or suggest changes. The best roofing for solar panels is made from strong materials like asphalt shingles and metal, but tile and gravel will work. Softer materials like thatch or temporary structures are not a good fit.

The best material to sheath a roof will depend on your budget and if you require the strength of more robust materials. For most homes, the added strength is unnecessary, and oriented strand board, or OSB, makes sense. It’s inexpensive and robust enough for most roof types. Another popular but slightly more expensive option is plywood.

Yes, capped chimneys should still be vented. Failing to vent a chimney will result in condensation buildup inside the chimney, which commonly results in mold growth. If mold begins to grow in a chimney, it frequently goes undetected and spreads quickly through the home. Mold and moisture can damage the structural integrity of your home, and exposure to mold can cause discomfort and illness in residents.
