Signs You Need Roof Replacement
Common Indicators of Roof Damage
Your roof may need replacement if you notice:
- Missing or Damaged Shingles: Gaps or cracks expose your home to leaks.
- Water Stains on Ceilings: These are signs of roof leaks.
- Granules in Gutters: Shingle wear indicates your roof is reaching the end of its lifespan.
Why Roof Age Matters
Roofs have a limited lifespan:
- Asphalt Shingles: 20–25 years.
- Metal Roofs: 40–70 years.
- Flat Roofs: 10–15 years. Older roofs are more susceptible to weather damage and leaks, making timely replacement essential.
When Repairs Are Not Enough
While repairs can address minor issues, replacement is needed if:
- Damage affects more than 30% of the roof.
- Your roof has multiple layers of old shingles.
- Persistent leaks continue despite previous repairs.
