Q: What’s the best underlayment for a metal roof?

• <div><p>Just like when you&rsquo;re <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/proper-installation-asphalt-roof-shingles.htm">shingling a roof</a>, you can install felt underlayment under a metal roof, but a synthetic underlayment like adhered ice and water shield is the best option. These use adhesives rather than mechanical fasteners, so you have fewer penetrations going through your roof deck and a lower risk of leaks. Ice and water shield is also easier to install because you don&rsquo;t need additional tools or fasteners to attach it to the roof deck. </p></div>

Q: Can you move a chimney?

• <div><p>Moving a chimney is possible, but it is a very complex process that requires professional expertise, knowledge of building codes, and safety protocols. Most homeowners find it easier to remove the fireplace and build a new fireplace and chimney in the new location of your home. Talk to your chimney pro about all your options, their costs, and pros and cons. </p></div>

Q: Does torch down roofing installation come with liability?

• <div><p>More and more insurance companies are writing torch down applications out of their liability insurance for contractors. If torch down is covered, they generally require a worker to stay on site for two hours after the last flame is extinguished.</p><p>For this reason, cold application modified bitumen&mdash;also known as &ldquo;peel and stick&rdquo;&mdash;is becoming more popular, and torch down is decreasing in popularity. Modified bitumen is taking its place, as it uses both hot and cold applications.</p></div>

Q: How long does roof replacement take?

• <div><p>A roof replacement can take anywhere from one to 14 days. For most homes, a full replacement that includes tearing off old materials takes about one to two days, though the average project can last up to 12 days. The exact timeline depends on several factors, including the roof's size and complexity, the type of roofing material, the crew size, and weather conditions. Certain materials take longer to install; for example, metal roofs can take seven to 14 days because the material is more difficult to work with than asphalt shingles, wood, or tile. A re-roofing project, where new shingles are installed over old ones, can take half the time or less. It's also important to factor in the time needed to obtain necessary permits. A professional roofing contractor will typically complete the job faster than a DIY approach.</p></div>

Q: Can you walk on a stone-coated steel roof?

• <div><p>Sticky shoes help, but you shouldn't be walking on the steel roof&mdash; let the pros do that. it's dangerous enough to walk on asphalt shingled roofs which have quite a bit of texture. Stone coating adds a lot of grip, but it still doesn't lock your foot down, so if you absolutely have to be on the roof, make sure you&rsquo;re secured in another way, like with the harness and rope.</p></div>

Very pleased with the results. Kenny added a covered patio, replaced the siding and put a metal roof on my 100+ year old house. The difference is amazing. He is the kind of guy you are hoping to find when you need a contractor.
