Your roof is one of the most important elements of your home. As such, you want to make sure your roof is in good working condition at all times. In this episode of The Marc and Mandy Show, Gerald Pinder from Army Roofing answers questions about signs of roof repairs.
Q: What’s the best type of shingle I can get for my roof?
Gerald Pinder: Really, it comes down to budget and style. No one shingle in particular is better than another and cheaper price doesn’t necessarily mean cheaper quality. What it really comes down to is the person installing your roof.
Q: How do you know when an asphalt shingle roof needs replacing?
GP: Usually, it’s fairly obvious. If you see any missing granulars, cracks, splits, or even curling shingles, it’s probably time to call a contractor.
Q: When do I have to use ice and water shielding on my roof?
GP: Ice and water shield is typically used on low-slope roofs and in areas where ice damning is a problem. It also creates a gasket around the nail heads and protrusions.
Q: How many vents should I have on my roof?
GP: The amount of vents you need on your roof is really dependant on the square footage of your roof and your attic space. They allow hot, moist air to escape, creating an equilibrium between the temperature on the inside of your attic and the outside, increasing the longevity of your roof.
