"Jessy came to inspect the job promptly. We made the appointment. A few days later my chimney was cleaned quickly and neatly by two very courteous A1 employees, and the price was right. I recommend A1 Professional Chimney and Roofing and would hire them again."

"This is the second time that Monarch Roofing has done work for me. I thought I might be ready for a new roof (many of the neighbors are replacing theirs) but they said that it just needed some repairs, which included a replacement attic vent, minor shingle repair, and some work on the chimney flashing. The entire project was completed within a few days. It was very easy to set up the inspection appointment, they came out on time, and then promptly got me on the schedule for the actual work. Easy, trouble free job, just as it was the first time. From my recent experience, Monarch Roofing can be counted on not to sell you a complete roofing job when a repair is all thatâ s needed. Their folks are highly professional and always willing to take the time to explain whatâ s needed, what they recommend, any alternatives, and what the cost will be."

"Hiring Adore construction was the best decision for repairing my chimneys. Jack was excellent, very professional, on time and very reasonably priced. Jack's price was $9,000 less than my previous estimate for my chimney company. I will be using Adore for everything related to my chimney and roof"

Chimney Inspection questions, answered by experts

Whether replacing the entire roof or just installing roof shingle replacements in small areas, always pull up the old roof shingles. While you can technically put new roof shingles (but not other roof materials) over old shingles, this can add weight strain to the roof and prevent the new shingles from securing properly to the roof.

To ensure optimal roof health, it’s a good idea to get an inspection once a year. However, certain factors may require more frequent checks. If your area experiences severe weather conditions such as hailstorms, high winds, or heavy snowfall, it is advisable to inspect your roof afterward. Older roofs are more susceptible to wear and tear, so if your roof is approaching its expected lifespan or has yet to be inspected in several years, it’s a good idea to schedule a roof inspection or estimate.

To prolong the lifespan of a slate roof, perform regular maintenance. This includes conducting annual inspections to check for damaged or broken tiles and addressing any minor issues promptly. Clean the gutters regularly, remove any overhanging tree branches, and ensure the flashing remains intact to prevent leaks. For comprehensive care, consider scheduling periodic professional inspections.

Roof underlayment usually lasts as long as the roofing material that covers it, as it’s not directly exposed to the elements. In most cases, roofing companies will replace the underlayment each time they install a new roof. In some cases, particularly with slate, clay, or certain metal roofs that can last 50 to 100 years, your underlayment may require replacement within that timeframe, especially if you start to notice roof leaks.

You should consider walking away from a home purchase after an inspection reveals major issues you are unprepared to deal with, such as structural damage, environmental problems, or significant issues with the roof or mechanical systems. These problems can cost tens of thousands of dollars to fix. Before making a decision, it's a good idea to get professional estimates for the repair costs to determine if the home is still worth buying. You should also consider external factors like the state of the housing market and how quickly you need to relocate.
