Q: Can rain come in through ridge vents?

• <div><p>Rain shouldn&rsquo;t come in through your ridge vents unless your vents are damaged or the rain is accompanied by very high winds. Most ridge vents use flashing or baffling to keep out rain, snow, and debris. If your ridge vent isn&rsquo;t baffled, rain is more likely to enter your attic, so ridge vents with baffles are a better choice in areas with regular rainfall.</p></div>

Q: Where do most roof leaks occur?

• <div><p>Most roof leaks occur where shingles meet or where there are sealants or seams in the materials. This is common around skylights and at any point there is a break in the roof such as corners and edges. Roofing materials are incredibly strong and resistant when overlapping, but any change in that can cause gaps where water can enter.</p></div>

Q: Can I put a metal roof over asphalt shingles?

• <div><p>You can technically install a metal roof over asphalt shingles, but it isn&rsquo;t a good idea. This is because you&rsquo;re essentially creating a moisture barrier under the metal, which can easily&mdash;and often does&mdash;lead to significant mold damage. Removing an asphalt roof isn&rsquo;t terribly expensive, and some roofing companies might cut you a serious labor and disposal discount if you add it to a new install. </p></div>

Q: Is it more inexpensive to build or buy roof trusses?

• <div><p>If you&rsquo;re building the roof trusses yourself, which isn&rsquo;t recommended, it will be more affordable than buying pre-built trusses. Trusses cost more because they use the same amount of material, but you&rsquo;ll also be paying for the labor, as well as the delivery to your home. However, if you&rsquo;re having a contractor build the roof for you, then trusses will be less expensive, as the labor <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/roof-framing-cost.htm">costs to build roof framing</a> on-site will cost more. </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>

"Elias Contruction provided a detailed estimate after inspecting the roof and making some qualified recommendations. The project required a few change orders that were not clarified in writing. I would recommend hiring Elias if you get changes in writing. They cleaned up pretty well although they missed a few things due to finishing in the dark. Overall satisfied with the job and cost was 60% of other bids due to sheathing adjustment."

"It was the best job I have seen in my life. They tore off all the gutters and roofing...resealed the roof and installed all nee roofing and seamless rain gutters. Everything was sealed and is beautiful. All the roofing from start to finish took 4 hours. The gutters less than 1 hour. They cleaned and hauled all the garbage away. I will recommend them number 1 to everyone. Thank you guys for all you do!!"
