Q: Do solar panels shorten roof life?

• <div><p>As long as your solar panels are properly installed without damage to your roof, they will not shorten the roof&rsquo;s life span. Solar panels can act as a cover or barrier to your roof and help block external elements, such as debris, heat, and UV rays. Reduced exposure to the weather can extend your roof&rsquo;s life.</p></div>

Q: Are rubberized shingles worth it?

• <div><p>For homeowners who plan to stay in their homes for a long time or never want to have to deal with replacing a roof again, rubber roof shingles are likely worth the added investment amount over asphalt shingle varieties. While the initial cost of installing a rubber shingle roof will be significantly higher, their long life spans can be worth it in the long term. Consider the curb appeal of a rubber roof, though, as other roofing materials, like metal, can look better and offer even greater value. </p></div>

Q: How much snow can a roof handle?

• <div><p>A roof's ability to handle snow depends on its strength and the snow's weight, as wet snow is much heavier than dry, fluffy snow. While designs in snowy regions often allow for 35 to 50 pounds per square foot, a general guideline is that a typical roof can withstand about four feet of fresh snow, two feet of packed snow, or just one inch of ice. Factors like the roof's age, slope, and support structure also affect its capacity; newer, sloped roofs generally hold more weight than older, flat ones. Ice and ice dams add significant, dangerous weight. Because capacity varies, it is best to contact a professional roofing contractor or the original builder to determine the maximum snow load for your specific home.</p></div>

Q: Do roofers need to be licensed?

• <div><p>Many states require roofers to be licensed, and some states don&rsquo;t mandate licensing. You can use Angi&rsquo;s <a href="https://www.angi.com/angi-license-check.htm">state licensing tool</a> to check if a roofing company holds the proper licensing for your area. A licensed roofing contractor will provide reliable roof installation service, leading to a reduced risk of leaks in the future, which can be expensive to repair. Paying more for a licensed roofer upfront often means paying less over time.</p></div>

Q: How long do thatched roofs last?

• <div><p>Thatched <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-long-does-roof-last.htm">roofs last</a> for between 30 and 50 years in most cases, which is longer than most asphalt roofs. However, getting that life span from your thatched roof requires more maintenance than you&rsquo;d need for most other materials, including fireproofing, brushing, cleaning, and rethatching as the material gets worn down. You&rsquo;ll also need routine inspections to ensure you&rsquo;re not at risk of leaks.</p></div>

I don’t remember the exact amount but I thought it was a fair estimate. The younger gentleman was very professional but I didn’t want to deal with a cellulose product because it compacts quickly compared to other products.

"I?ve lived in this house for ten years and realized I?d never actually had the roof professionally inspected. I called Apple Roofing for a maintenance check, and I am so glad I did because they found a cracked flashing around my chimney that was just starting to seep. Instead of trying to upsell me on a whole new roof, they gave me an honest, affordable repair plan to stop the leak at its source. It?s refreshing to find a company in Central Nebraska that values integrity over a quick buck. They explained exactly why the freeze-thaw cycle was causing the issue and gave me tips on what to look for next winter. Truly a knowledgeable and trustworthy team!"
