Q: How far up do you put snow guards on a metal roof?

• <div><p>The placement of snow guards depends on the individual roof, but typically snow guards are placed between 12 and 18 inches from the eaves, though they can be placed as close as six inches and as far as 24 inches from the eaves. A roofing professional can assess the roof and potential snow loads to determine the best placement.</p></div>

Q: Is torch down roofing the same as rolled roofing?

• <div><p>Generally, the term &ldquo;rolled roofing&rdquo; refers to MSR (mineral surface roll) roofing. This type of roofing is similar to asphalt shingles but comes in a roll that&rsquo;s unraveled and installed over your roof deck. There are many types of rolled roofing, including TPO, EPDM, and modified bitumen roofing (aka torch down roofing).</p></div>

Q: Is ice and water shield required under metal roofs?

• <div><p>Using an ice and water shield underlayment under a metal roof is a good way to protect the roof and your home from damage in colder climates that see a lot of winter weather. Traditional underlayment isn&rsquo;t effective underneath a metal roof, though, so be sure to install one specifically made for metal roofs to get the best protection.</p></div>

Q: How do you strengthen roof framing?

• <div><p>The most crucial roof-strengthening method is achievable by following proper construction methods and guidelines from the start. To strengthen an existing roof, framers and DIYers can add hurricane ties or straps to the structure, sister rafters and other framing or truss members, or install additional fasteners or adhesives where necessary. </p></div>

Q: Can I hang rafters without a birdsmouth cut?

• <div><p>Some people prefer to use connectors consisting of galvanized metal to replace the birdsmouth cuts on the rafter board. Common names for these metal pieces include hurricane ties and variable-pitch connectors. Making birdsmouth cuts is more cost-effective than purchasing these connectors for each rafter. However, because making large birdsmouth cuts to accommodate extra-wide exterior walls can weaken the rafter, a connector may be the better option in some cases.</p></div>
