Never thought I’d care this much about roofing, but here we are. I looked into clay because they look amazing, but the cost plus the risk of cracking ...

That’s what holds me back every time—cost. I’m in central Florida and after last year’s hurricane, my 12-year-old asphalt roof survived, but I keep wo...

I’m with you on attic storage being kind of overrated, especially when it’s a pain to get up there and you’re just shuffling around old holiday stuff....

Interesting point about aluminum—I hadn't really thought of that. I've always assumed aluminum would corrode pretty quickly near saltwater, even if it...
