Q: I am planning on having shingles put on my home. The roof I have now is o.k. I guess, it leaks in a couple places but only if it rains real hard. My question is should I get metal shingles or the camelot shingles? Metal is very expensive double the price. The seller says that they are worth it. But I have people tell me why get into debt when the Camelot shingles are plenty good enough. Metal is suppose to be forever. I need help please tell me what you would do. I like the look of the camelot better but I dont know what to do. Both sellers are being very pushy and aggressive and tell me if I do not choose their product I am making a big mistake and will regret it when its too late. Please help! Thank You.

Q: We are planning on having our roof re-shingled. Currently the only venting we have is gable vents. We will be finishing the attic shortly. While re-shingling, should we have the roofers put in cobra venting and sofit vents or some other combination, or are gable vents enough providing the finising of the attic is not done to the peak to continue air flow?

Q: What is the appropriate color of gable vents? We are remodeling our house and are adding gable vents (because we lost all our shade trees). The vinyl siding of our house is "dune" (creamy beige) with linen (slightly offwhite) trim and our roof is brown/beige mix. The HOA wants us to put up white gable vents, we want to use a brown or dark burgundy to coordinate with the roof, which we say maintains harmony and archetectural dignity of the gable vents. What do you say?

Q: I got a real bad roof job 15 years ago and now I need it replaced down to the rafters. This time I made a list of everything that I"ll make sure is written in the contract. The one thing I'm concerned about is a new ridge vent. I don't like "Cobra" brands due to the Cobra I have that has failed due to the mesh clogging up. The installer showed me a plastic "Tamko" brand ridge vent that doesn't have the mesh inside but has double sets of slots that won't clog. What do you think?
