What credit score is needed for a roof?

• <div><p>If you choose to get a personal loan to finance a roof, you will want to aim for a “good” or “excellent” credit score for the best rates. That means a credit score of 690 or more. If you aren’t sure of your credit score, you can request one free credit report per year from each of the three major credit bureaus: Equifax, Experian, and TransUnion. Many banks also provide free credit reports monthly.</p></div>

What’s the best climate for copper roofs?

• <div><p>Copper roofing works well in all kinds of climates, but it’s ideal in humid climates because it naturally repels fungus, moss, and algae. This makes it one of the <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/best-roofing-materials-for-cape-cod.htm">best roofing options for Cape Cod homes</a> in the Northeast, as well as homes in the humid southern states and snowy northern states. That said, copper is vulnerable to thermal expansion. If you live in a climate that has extreme temperature changes, your contractor will need to consider this during the installation process.</p></div>

Q: Does insurance cover roof decking?

• <div><p>Homeowners insurance sometimes covers roof decking, but it depends on the cause of damage and whether the decking was properly installed. If the roof decking was damaged by a severe storm, then it will likely be covered. Insurance may also pay for roof decking work if building codes require it. However, insurance won&rsquo;t cover damage caused by normal wear and tear or poor maintenance practices.</p></div>

Q: Is it necessary to put wood stripping under a metal roof?

• <div><p>It is not always necessary to put <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/it-necessary-or-important-put-wood-stripping-under-metal-roof.htm">wood stripping (also called furring strips) under a metal roof</a>, but some metal roofs require stripping to work efficiently. For example, you must use furring strips when installing metal over shingles in order to connect the shingles to the metal roofing. These strips are made of metal or wood. They create thermal breaks and provide a solid frame to which you can attach the metal roofing. A lack of wood stripping can cause condensation issues under certain roofs, so use the roofing manufacturer&rsquo;s specifications as your guide.</p></div>

Q: What’s the best underlayment for a metal roof?

• <div><p>Just like when you&rsquo;re <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/proper-installation-asphalt-roof-shingles.htm">shingling a roof</a>, you can install felt underlayment under a metal roof, but a synthetic underlayment like adhered ice and water shield is the best option. These use adhesives rather than mechanical fasteners, so you have fewer penetrations going through your roof deck and a lower risk of leaks. Ice and water shield is also easier to install because you don&rsquo;t need additional tools or fasteners to attach it to the roof deck. </p></div>

I believe that their objective is to use scare tactics in an attempt to take advantage of people and pressure them into spending HUGE amounts of money necessarily. I have a 10' wide, 30+ foot tall, solid rock masonry chimney (as in it is constructed of solid rock). It is also lined with a clay...

This was not a good experience. The "$50 house call" advertised on the website, I found out only after the technician had arrived, applies only to a simple "get this snake out of my kitchen" call. The charge for setting & baiting two live traps for a 5-day period was an outrageous $200 (one...
