"Ordered and paid for custom awning that was to take 5 weeks. Its now been 16 weeks and still waiting. Owner is at best noncommunicable and at worst, rude. I'm now wondering if this is a scam and not a real business."

Chimney Caps questions, answered by experts

Common problems include loose or missing shingles, leaks, and weather damage. Regular inspections help prevent major repairs.

Most traditional lenders will not loan against a house with a leaking roof, and some lenders won’t lend against a home with a roof near the end of its lifespan. If the roof on your new home is in poor condition, you may need to have the seller offer a credit for a roof replacement after closing, or you can opt for a renovation loan—also called a 203k loan—to bundle the house and the roof replacement into one loan.

Asphalt roofs provide better insulation than metal roofs, but that doesn’t always mean that asphalt roofs are better for reducing heating and cooling bills. In hotter climates, metal roofs will usually be better for home efficiency because the material reflects more sunlight and reduces solar heat gain. In colder climates, asphalt roofs are sometimes superior in terms of efficiency because they introduce more solar heat gain to your home and have greater insulating capabilities. However, metal roofs installed with an air gap can provide similar levels of insulation.

A roof’s life span depends on the materials in use and on the quality of the work from the roofer. Most roofs will last anywhere from 25 to 50 years. Damage from storms or seeing signs of a bad roofing job could lead to a shorter life span, though.

Torch down roofs have a relatively short lifespan of between 10 and 15 years, although one with up to three layers may last as long as 20 years. This is on the low end of the normal lifespan of a roof. For reference, most wood or asphalt shingles last between 20 and 30 years, while high-quality asphalt shingles can last up to 50 years.

With torch down roofing, expect a 12-year warranty for one-ply systems and a 15-year warranty for two-play systems.
