Should you tell your insurance when you get a new roof?

• <div><p>Always inform your insurance company when you get a new roof. A new roof may entitle you to lower rates or discounts, and if you need to make a claim, they’ll have up-to-date information on your roof. You’ll need to provide documentation—ask your insurance agent what you need to submit to prove you had your roof replaced.</p></div>

How much should you pay a roofer upfront?

• <div><p>Ideally, you shouldn’t <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/should-i-pay-roofing-contractor-front.htm">pay your roofer upfront</a> unless you’re special-ordering materials. However, anything between 10% and 15% of the project’s cost is reasonable to pay upfront. Avoid making a final payment until after the roof gets completed.</p></div>

Q: What are the downsides of a spray foam roof?

• <div><p>Spray foam roofs don&rsquo;t stand up well to impact, so they won&rsquo;t <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/foam-roof-vs-tar-and-gravel.htm">last as long as something like a tar and gravel roof</a> and other flat roof materials in areas where extreme weather is common. Due to the reduced durability, you&rsquo;ll also need more frequent maintenance and repairs for a spray foam roof, and those costs will add up over time. Spray foam roofs are relatively uncommon, so you may also struggle to hire a roofing contractor who can install one. </p></div>

Q: Who installs chimney caps?

• <div><p>Chimney caps may be installed by a few different professionals, including a chimney sweep or a mason that specializes in fireplaces and chimneys. A gas fireplace technician is the best person to install a chimney cap on a gas log fireplace vent to be sure the cap is appropriate for the application.</p></div>

Q: What happens if a house is not winterized?

• <div><p>If a home isn&rsquo;t properly winterized, the pipes can freeze and burst, causing flooding and massive property damage. It can also leave your house susceptible to pests, which can infest it and cause significant damage. Winterizing a home can prevent many potential issues and save you money on costly repairs.</p></div>

Very thorough, very professional. Ran a number of tests to see what was causing the coolant to leak, and replaced the radiator cap (I know little about cars). They tested it further, but only charged me for cost of parts and labor. I will definitely use them again!
