"Rattler Roofing exceeded our expectations. Mike is a great communicator and kept in touch with us throughout the process of working with our insurance company for a damage claim. Rattler Roofing has exceptional customer service, did an amazing job with our new roof and did a clean up job second to none. We can't say enough about the integrity of Mike and his company and wouldn't hesitate to call on him again."
"I?m so happy I made the right choice to use Roof Rescue! We had hail damage on our roof and called our insurance company, they approved our claim and sent us the money we were told was needed to perform the repairs. Then we called out 3 roofing companies to choose who to work with. The first company showed up late and was not very thorough, they sort of showed up, left and emailed us an estimate that was more than what our insurance was covering. The second company was also more than our insurance and only tried to get us to pay more without working with us- very salesy and high pressure. Roof Rescue came out and I spoke with Cesar. He was thorough, inspected our attic, roof and exterior, then told us about their insurance recovery plan. Cesar ended up working with our insurance company, got our roof replaced quickly and cleanly AND actually upgraded my roof compared to what my insurance was covering. All this for the exact cost that my insurance was willing to pay. Highly recommend!"
Yes, you should seal and cap an unused chimney to protect it from damage. Sealing the structure helps prevent moisture damage, which can lead to issues like cracks, spalling, efflorescence, and damaged mortar joints. Capping the chimney is also crucial to prevent blockages, damage from invasive critters, and downdrafts, while still allowing for proper air ventilation to manage moisture. For the best results, consult a chimney professional to select the right type of chimney or flue cap for your home. It's also wise to continue with annual chimney inspections to maintain the structure's integrity.
An improper DIY roof cleaning could cause leaks by damaging the roofing material. Things like using too much water pressure on the shingles or applying a harsh cleaning solution could cause damage. If you do enough damage, you could harm the ability of the shingles or other roof materials to keep water out of your home.
A standard roof can hold a live load of about 20 pounds per square foot. However, gable roofs often have steeper-than-average slopes, so calculating their weight capacity can be challenging. If the slope of your gable roof is greater than 4:12, the live load needs to be decreased to allow for a larger dead load. Ask your roofer exactly how much weight your roof can support.
Some homes, like those with flat roofs, may not have eaves at all. Some contemporary-style homes also lack eaves, although many may have abbreviated eaves to divert water and protect the walls and foundation. Homes without eaves often have specific types of gutters affixed directly to the edge of the roof to provide adequate drainage.
You can damage your shingles if you use the wrong type of paint on them. You should always use acrylic latex paint specifically formulated for shingles. Other types of paint may trap moisture, which can cause bigger problems like rot and mildew. Considering that roof replacement costs $9,100 on average, it’s definitely best to avoid making this mistake.
Besides using the right paint, remember that painting your shingles will require increased maintenance.
