Q: Will a tarp stop a roof leak?

• <div><p>A tarp can temporarily <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/what-do-when-your-new-roof-leaks.htm">stop a roof leak</a>, but how long the solution works heavily depends on the placement and size of the leak. While a tarp can be a temporary solution, it&rsquo;s crucial to have a professional inspect and repair the leak as soon as possible to implement a permanent fix. </p></div>

Q: How long do new roofs last?

• <div><p>A <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-long-does-roof-last.htm">new roof will last</a> anywhere from 15 to 150 years, depending on the type of roof you install. Asphalt shingle roofs have the shortest lifespan of 15 to 30 years. Metal roofs usually last for 30 to 60 years, but some materials can fall outside of that range. Clay and concrete roofs can last for 50 to 100 years, and slate roofs have the longest lifespan of 60 to 150 years.</p><p></p></div>

Q: Can you walk on a tar and gravel roof?

• <div><p>You can walk on a tar and gravel roof, but you should avoid it if possible. This type of flat roof is the most resilient to damage from foot traffic, as the gravel protects the roofing membrane from punctures, but it&rsquo;s still best to limit foot traffic. Hire professionals to clean your roof drains and carry out inspections and repairs to reduce the risk of damage.</p></div>

Q: What happens if I don’t ventilate my roof?

• <div><p>Roof vents are an <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/roofing-essentials.htm">essential part of a roof,</a> as they promote energy efficiency by keeping warm, humid air at bay. The roofing material, especially asphalt shingles, will not last as long as it should (about half of its manufacture life) if the attic is not ventilated. Also, going without ventilation means having a warm attic that demands more from your air conditioning system (and your wallet, once the bills come). Ridge vents and roof vents also prevent a host of other icky moisture-related problems like rot, mold, and mildew.</p></div>

Q: Do copper roof strips prevent shingle damage?

• <div><p>Yes, <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/do-copper-roof-strips-prevent-shingle-damage.htm">copper roof strips can help prevent shingle damage</a> and are an alternative to algae-resistant shingles. They work in a similar way: they release copper ions that interfere with algae, moss, and other plant growth. Algae feeds on limestone in your roof shingles, and moss can uplift shingles and increase the risk of leaks. If you have issues with algae or moss on your roof, copper roof strips can help avoid damage.</p></div>

We had a emergency due to a pipe break in the slab. The plumber arrived within 2 hours and I was able to track him online. Ultimately the leak was fixed by cutting and capping the hard water line to the house but it took a while for the plumber to figure things out. He did not inspire...
