10 Indicators It’s Time for a Roof Replacement

Not sure whether your roof needs replacing? Watch out for these 10 signs to avoid bigger problems and costly repairs down the road.

Signs of Roof Wear and Tear

Shingles That Are Missing or Damaged: Missing shingles leave your roof exposed, leading to water damage.
Curled or cracked shingles: Often a sign of aging materials.
Gutters Full of Granules: The presence of granules in the gutters means your shingles are losing their protective coating.
Water Stains or Leaks: Water stains on ceilings or walls are a clear sign of a leaking roof.
Roof Sagging: Sagging areas can indicate severe structural damage that needs immediate attention.
Visible Light in the Attic: This means holes or weak spots.
Moss or algae growth: Excess moisture can degrade materials over time.
High energy bills: An inefficient roof can result in higher energy bills due to poor insulation.
Roof’s Age: If your roof is over 20 years old, it may be time for a replacement.
Storm-Damaged Roof: Storms with high winds or hail can lead to significant roof damage.

Postponing roof replacement can cause serious damage, such as mold, structural issues, and escalating repair costs. Don’t wait until it’s too late.

Here are several roofing materials to consider for your replacement:

Shingles Made of Asphalt: Affordable and durable, asphalt shingles are a great choice for many homes.
Metal roofs: Long-lasting and ideal for various climates.
Tile or slate: Great for aesthetics and durability, especially in warmer areas.
Flat roofs: Flat roof replacements often use TPO, EPDM, or PVC for durability and energy savings.
