Q: Should you close or cover gable vents in the winter?

• <div><p>No, you should not close or cover your gable vents in the winter. While it might seem logical to block cold air, heating your home creates hot air that rises and can cause condensation in the attic. If the vents are covered, this moisture becomes trapped, creating an ideal environment for mold and mildew. Keeping the gable vents open ensures proper ventilation, which helps dry out the attic, maintain even temperatures, and prevent moisture-related damage.</p></div>

Q: What is the life expectancy of roof underlayment?

• <div><p>Roof underlayment usually lasts as long as the roofing material that covers it, as it&rsquo;s not directly exposed to the elements. In most cases, roofing companies will replace the underlayment each time they install a new roof. In some cases, particularly with slate, clay, or certain metal roofs that can last 50 to 100 years, your underlayment may require replacement within that timeframe, especially if you start to notice roof leaks.</p></div>

Q: How many times can you overlay a roof?

• <div><p>You can only overlay a roof once. Any additional layers of shingles will add too much weight and may also violate building codes. Once your roof has had an overlay, you&rsquo;ll need to have a full roof replacement, including a tear-off of all existing roofing materials, when it&rsquo;s time for a new roof. </p></div>

Q: Do metal roofs make your house hot?

• <div><p>No, a metal roof will not make your house hot. In fact, metal roofs help keep your home cooler by reflecting heat instead of absorbing and transmitting it inside. Metal also has high thermal conductivity, which means it gains and loses heat quickly. While the sun may heat the metal, the roof rapidly transfers that heat back into the air rather than retaining it. This reflective property can lead to energy cost savings of up to 40%, as your cooling system won't need to work as hard to maintain a consistent indoor temperature.</p></div>

Q: Do all bay windows need a roof?

• <div><p>If the bay window extends beyond your existing roofline, you must add a roof or a small &ldquo;skirt&rdquo; to divert storm water and prevent water damage. The window roof can match your existing house roof, or be finished with copper or other decorative materials. Most bay windows have a roof with complete flashing regardless of their placement to prevent leaks into the home.</p></div>

We hired Cody to take care of removing some old buildings and a lot of mesquite. He did an amazing job! He is very honest and his communication is like no other. He kept us updated every day that he worked. If you need demo work, or brush clearing, I would highly recommend Cody!
