"It's a pretty decent system, I think. They send you the pieces and you install them yourself, which is pretty easy. The only real problem I have is that one sensor is too far away from the panel...or there's some interference, and they haven't been able to fix that. It's an interior door, so it's not the end of the world, just a little annoying. Their customer service is pretty good though. Nice, smart customer service people on the other end, very polite and helpful."

Chimney Inspection questions, answered by experts

Walking on any roofing material is dangerous, so you should avoid it if you can, but if the need arises, you should know that you can walk on a concrete tile roof without damaging it. Try to step on the bottom portions of the tile that are supported by the lower layer, and distribute your weight evenly across both feet and hands, if possible.

Look underneath the shingles at the edge of your roof—you should be able to see the ice and water shield in between your roof and the shingles.

While a few icicles on your roof are standard, a large accumulation can be a sign of a bigger problem, such as poor insulation. This is particularly true if you are also dealing with ice dams. If you have numerous large icicles, it is recommended to have a roofing contractor diagnose potential insulation issues and create a plan to solve them.

The principal, common, and auxiliary rafters are the most frequently used types of rafters. Principal rafters are large and typically appear toward the edges of the roof. Common rafters are smaller than principal rafters. Some people may use a mix of common and principal rafters. The auxiliary rafter is not common, but it provides extra reinforcement for a principal rafter on a large building.

While a severe hailstorm can cause serious damage, it does not automatically mean you need a full roof replacement. The necessity of a replacement often depends on the age and prior condition of your roof. Unless your roof was already aging or in poor shape, a full replacement is often not required, and it can be difficult to get insurance approval for one. The most reliable way to determine the extent of the damage and whether a replacement is needed is to contact a professional roofing company. An experienced contractor can perform a thorough inspection, identify any hidden damage, and advise you on the best course of action.
