Q: What stops water going down a chimney?

• <div><p>Your chimney needs a structurally sound chimney cap, protective lining, damper, chimney flashing, and brick and mortar to prevent water from goind down your chimney. A pro can help you identify where the issue is so that you can stop water from coming down the smoke shaft, through your damper, and into your home.</p></div>

Q: Can you have a thatched roof in the U.S.?

• <div><p>Yes, thatched roofs are legal in most areas in the U.S., but you should always check your local building codes to ensure there are no restrictions in your particular area before installing one. Even where they are legal, you&rsquo;ll usually need to apply fireproofing to the roof to keep it up to code. Keep in mind that a <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/does-new-roof-increase-home-value.htm">new roof might not increase home value</a> as much if you choose a thatched roof, as they aren&rsquo;t common in the U.S. and might not be as desirable to many home buyers.</p></div>

Q: Can moss damage my roof?

• <div><p>Yes, moss can be dangerous for your roof if left in place to grow without treatment. The moss soaks up and holds moisture. Having a constantly damp roof could lead to problems with rot for the parts of the roof that consist of wood. Additionally, a patch of thick moss may draw insects and birds, which could damage the roof. Thick moss could block the roof&rsquo;s drainage system. Water then may back up after a rainstorm and cause further damage that could eventually lead to roof repair expenses or the <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-much-does-roof-replacement-cost.htm">cost of roof replacement</a>.</p></div>

Q: How do I apply for a roofing permit?

• <div><p>To apply for a roofing permit, contact your local building authority. You may visit their office in person or contact them via phone or email. For more information on how to start the process, visit their website. </p></div>

Q: Is a signed roofing proposal a contract?

• <div><p>Proposals, invoices, and estimates are most often used as marketing documents and are not legally binding. Contracts are legally binding documents that detail the service offering, project considerations, and signatures from all parties. If you signed a proposal for discussion purposes while requesting a quote and you decide to <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/6-tips-choosing-roofing-contractor.htm">hire your roofer</a>, make sure the contracting party follows through with a legally binding contract to protect both parties. </p></div>
