Q: How long do metal and shingle roofs last?

• <div><p>Metal roofs last for between 50 and 70 years, and asphalt roofs last for between 20 and 25 years, with some lasting as long as 30 years. In most cases, you&rsquo;ll get double the life or more out of a metal roof than you would from a shingle roof, which helps make the higher cost of a metal roof more manageable.</p></div>

Q: What is the roof pitch of a Cape Cod house?

• <div><p>The <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/what-roof-pitch.htm">roof pitch</a> on a Cape Cod house is normally 8/12 or 10/12, meaning the roof rises 8 to 10 inches for every 12 inches of horizontal run. This is steeper than the now-standard 6/12 pitch, as Cape Cod homes were originally popular in northern states, where the steeper pitch helped snowfall slide readily off the roof. </p></div>

Q: What does wind damage to shingles look like?

• <div><p>Shingle damage comes in many forms, and the damage usually depends on the wind speed and the shape of the roof before the winds. Typically, when shingles are damaged by wind, they become torn, creased, or detached from the roof. Some might go missing entirely. More extensive roof damage might occur if a tree branch or other debris has fallen onto the roof as a result of the windstorm.</p></div>

Q: How high should I raise my roof?

• <div><p>This will depend on your existing roof to some degree, but it&rsquo;s common to raise a roof 4 to 8 feet. The exact amount you can raise is subject to the existing structure. For most homes with average roof slopes&mdash;20 to 45 degrees&mdash;you can raise the roof around 5 feet. </p></div>

Q: Do roofers replace trusses?

• <div><p>Yes, roofers can <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/who-repairs-roof-trusses.htm">repair and replace roof trusses</a>. In fact, because trusses are such an important part of your roof&rsquo;s structure, it&rsquo;s best to have a roofing contractor deal with a damaged truss. If you try to fix the problem without the right skills or knowledge, your roof could sustain further damage or even collapse.</p></div>
