Q: How do you prevent moss from growing on a roof?

• <div><p>You may become so frustrated with the look of moss on your roof that you contemplate whether to <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/4-reasons-clean-your-roof-instead-replacing-it.htm">clean or replace your roof</a>. Fortunately, you don&rsquo;t have to go as far as replacing it. After cleaning the moss, you can use a chemical solution to keep it away. For further protection, trim branches that overhang the roof, as fallen seed pods and leaves on the roof allow moisture to collect, encouraging moss growth. Consider adding zinc-coated flashing to the roof, too. As rain washes across the zinc, it leaves zinc particles behind that inhibit moss growth.</p></div>

Q: Does flashing go over or under shingles?

• <div><p>Generally, roof flashing is installed under the shingles to create a watertight seal and prevent moisture from seeping in and causing damage. However, the exact placement can depend on the type of flashing. For instance, with step flashing, the shingles and flashing overlap each other, meaning the flashing is technically both over and under the shingles. Flashing also typically goes beneath the house siding and is often not visible from the ground.</p></div>

Q: What is the best type of roof vent?

• <div><p>The best type of roof vent depends on the size, type, and construction of your roof as well as the environmental conditions in and around your home. In many cases, an active ventilation system that draws in fresh air and exhausts air out through the attic is the most effective. Active ventilation systems include roof ridge vents with baffles, turbine vents, and soffit vents that are used together with another type of vent. </p></div>

Q: When should I start worrying about my roof’s longevity?

• <div><p>If your roof is nearing the 20-year mark in age, you probably should start worrying about the roof&rsquo;s longevity. If you don&rsquo;t know the age, it may be time to figure out who installed your roof, so you can estimate the age accurately. You then can make plans to pay for the upcoming roof replacement. You also can learn <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-inspect-roof.htm">how to inspect a roof</a> yourself to look for signs of damage that may indicate a need for a replacement.</p></div>

Q: Is a hip roof more expensive?

• <div><p>Hip roofs tend to cost a bit more than other common styles of roofs. Because of the complex labor needs required to build a hip roof properly, you can expect to spend more on labor if you choose to go with a hip roof over a less complicated roof style.</p></div>
