Dale, Good information. I've shown houses where the buyer will say 'the roof looks good'. Well, it may look good, but the average person doesn't know much about proper ventilation and roof vents. I always say you are going to have a home inspection aren't you?

Dale, great post and good information for agents. I always hang out with my home inspectors and learn! Thanks for the good info!

Dale - What can I say the information you provide is priceless.   I too have learned so much from the inspectors.  Your contribution here is appreciated.

I am always gald to see that you have stoped by to comment.

Thank you

I always gets me a little when, I start to talk about the ventilation and the roof vents of the home.

Then someone will say the roof is out side it does not need to be vventilated.

Dale, as always, excellent information. Soon you'll have created an encyclopedic reference of home building information within your blog. Thank you for sharing your knowledge. 

Dale,  The information you provide is so interesting.  Thank you for being a wonderful resource.  There is so much to homebuilding.  I always learn something when reading your posts.

Dale, this is just an I am curious question.  Do ridge vents vary by the area of the country that you live in.  Here in Houston we don't have to worry about any snow but we have loads of humidity.

Thank you for stopping by and commenting.

I would not think so. Seen that they are for geting air flow in to and from the attic.

I'll do some checking on that.

In Hawaii we only have to worry about rain and wind.  Should we still only use metal here?

Howdy Randy

Thank you for stopping in and commenting.

It's been sometime that I was in Hawaii.

But I would say no you would not have to use metal there.

Have a good one

Hi Dale.

I wanted to drop by and say hello. I have been out of town for a business conference. I see you have been busy lately blogging your heart out.

Thanks for sharing the information

on roof vent. Inspections are serious matters and are not for laymen. 

Take care.

Dale - I especially liked the fact that you posted this for First Time Homebuyer groups - what a good reminder that we should be INSTISTING that our first time homebuyers get the BEST advice (which includes an inspection - since APPRAISERS are NOT inspectors!)

Howdy Dionne

I am glad you are back and stoped by.

That I have been, but it's a fun busy

for sure.

You are welcome my friend. 

Have a good one

Dale
