Do chimney repair companies need to be licensed?

• <div><p>In many areas, chimney repair companies need to be licensed, but it depends on your state and local municipality. You can check with your local building department to see if companies need licenses, and then you can use Angi’s<a href="https://www.angi.com/angi-license-check.htm"> license lookup tool</a> to confirm that the company you’re considering holds the proper license. It’s a good idea to confirm that the professional is fully insured, and you can ask about certification from organizations like the Chimney Safety Institute of America (CSIA). These certifications aren’t mandatory, but they help ensure a professional repair.</p></div>

Can you salvage rusty grill grates?

• <div><p>Yes, you can salvage grill grates with some surface rust. Simply apply a commercial rust remover or a homemade vinegar, baking soda, or lemon juice paste with a wire brush or steel wool. After <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-to-get-rust-off-metal.htm">removing the rust from the metal</a>, you can then apply a thin layer of rust-preventing oil to keep the grates looking good as new for longer. However, grate replacement is often better when the rust is deep.</p></div>

Q: How long do zinc roofs last?

• <div><p>Zinc roofs can last over 100 years under ideal conditions. While <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-long-metal-roofs-last.htm">metal roofs last a long time</a>, only copper roofing is comparable to zinc's longevity. Zinc roofing develops a patina over time, turning from dark shades to lighter ones. The material, or at least the patina coating, is somewhat self-healing by filling in small gaps and scratches on its own. </p></div>

Q: What are the pros and cons of metal roofs?

• <div><p>There are <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/benefits-metal-roofing.htm">pros and cons to metal roofs</a>. Some of the benefits of a metal roof include a long lifespan, multiple style options available, and improved energy efficiency in your home. The biggest drawbacks of metal roofing are the higher price tag and the noise. When rain falls on a metal roof, it tends to be louder compared to other roofing materials.</p></div>

Q: Are copper roof strips more effective than zinc roof strips?

• <div><p>Copper roof strips offer better coverage and more damage protection than zinc roof strips. Although both deter moss and algae growth, copper also offers UV protection. Zinc strips require more strips than copper to cover the roof&rsquo;s surface area, which means more holes in your roof. Copper strips are also more flexible and last longer than zinc strips.</p></div>
