Gutters
Your gutters play an important part in channeling water away from your home. If your gutters are rusting, leaking, or detaching water might start pooling or pouring into your siding or trim. When your roof is inspected, make sure to ask your contractor about the state of your gutters.
Chimneys
Many homes, especially older homes, have chimneys. If your chimney is in use you probably have it regularly cleaned and maintained. If your chimney isn’t in use, it still may need some TLC. Some roofing contractors also do chimney and masonry work, and some don’t. Talk to your contractor about the needs of your roof.
The most important thing is to listen to your contractor, read all the paperwork, and ask questions. Your roof is a big investment. Make sure you work with your contractor to get the job done right.
