Q: Is a roof inspection the same as a home inspection?

• <div><p>Home inspectors may look briefly at your roof, but certified roof experts will be more thorough. Hiring a roof inspector can give you a better sense of any underlying concerns as well as longevity. That said, a roof inspector won&rsquo;t look at the rest of your home. The inspection may or may not include the attic, where problems can be hidden if they aren&rsquo;t already visible on the surface of your roof. It&rsquo;s important to clarify exactly what you&rsquo;re getting with your inspector so there are no surprises.</p></div>

Q: What’s included in a roof inspection?

• <div><p>In most cases, a roof inspection will include a visual inspection of the exterior roofing materials, an interior inspection for signs of leaking or roof damage, and an assessment of the structural stability of your roof and the materials supporting it. Some things your roof inspector will look for include the following:</p><ul><li><p>Missing or damaged shingles, flashing, or sealant</p></li><li><p>Signs of old age</p></li><li><p>Signs of leaks, including mold growth and water stains</p></li><li><p>Potential issues, like tree branches touching your roof</p></li><li><p>Signs of a loss of structural integrity</p></li></ul><p></p></div>

Q: When should you get a drone roof inspection?

• <div><p>You should inspect your roof at least twice a year during the rainiest seasons: spring and fall. It&rsquo;s also a good idea to get an inspection after getting hit with particularly heavy rain and windstorms, as these may damage your roof. If you are buying or selling a home, that might also be a good time to get the roof inspected. </p></div>

Q: What are the three types of rafters?

• <div><p>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.</p></div>

Q: Can you walk on torch down roofing?

• <div><p>Yes, you can walk on torch down roofing. It is durable and tear-resistant enough to handle that kind of low-level wear. Remember that torch down roofing can get uncomfortably hot in certain climates. Dark roofing absorbs heat and can burn bare feet. If you want to use a roof deck for lounging, you may want to install a lighter-colored PVC membrane.</p></div>

"Everything went great -- initial consultation, installation, account set-up and ongoing monitoring. The alarm went off twice in the past year. The first time, my dog set it off because I had a motion-detection monitor in a place that wasn't high enough. I was in a meeting at work and didn't receive the call from the monitoring entity, so the police were notified and came to my home and inspect (everything was fine). The second time, I accidentally triggered the alarm myself while at home. The monitoring service called me, I provided the passcode to prove it was me and everything was alright, and the police were not notified. So this basically works just like any costly alarm service -- with the same level of quality, professionalism and customer service -- but is far less expensive. I paid about $100 for the equipment and the monthly monitoring fee for the plan I selected is $42.99, which includes remote access to activate and deactivate the system (through an app available for Apple and Droid devices). I couldn't be happier with FrontPoint.
