When is it time for a replacement?



• Age of the Roof: Shingle roofs typically have a lifespan of 20 to 30 years. If your roof is approaching or has exceeded this timeframe, it may be time for replacement.
• Visible Damage: Inspect your roof for signs of visible damage such as missing, cracked, or curling shingles, as well as granule loss. These issues can compromise the integrity of the roof and indicate the need for replacement.
• Leaks and Water Damage: If you notice water stains on your ceiling or walls, or if you experience leaks during heavy rain or snow, it could be a sign that your shingle roofing system is failing and needs replacement.
• Mold or Mildew Growth: Excessive moisture trapped under the shingles can lead to mold or mildew growth, which not only compromises indoor air quality but also indicates underlying roof damage that may necessitate replacement.
• Sagging or Uneven Roofline: A sagging or uneven roofline can indicate structural issues with the roof decking or supports, which may require a full roof replacement to address properly.
• Increased Energy Bills: If you notice a significant increase in your energy bills, it could be due to poor insulation or ventilation caused by an aging or damaged roof, signaling the need for replacement.
• Roofing Material Warranty Expiration: Many shingle roofing materials come with warranties that expire after a certain number of years. If your roof is nearing the end of its warranty period, it may be a good time to consider replacement to avoid potential out-of-pocket expenses for repairs.
