When to Replace Your Roof
Your roof serves as your home’s first line of defense against whatever Mother Nature may have in store. Whether exposed to pelting rain, piling snow, or rough winds, you want to feel confident that your roof has what it takes to stand up to the elements. If you suspect that your roof is aging poorly or showing signs of damage, now may be the time for a replacement.
Is Now The Time for a Roof Replacement?
The lifespan of a roof typically ranges between 20 to 25 years. If your roof exceeds this range, it can start to exhibit signs of wear and tear. Here are some common issues to be on the lookout for:
Damaged Shingles
If your shingles are curling, cracking, warping, buckling, or even missing, then your roof is susceptible to potential water infiltration, which can lead to leaks, and mold and mildew growth.
Granules in Your Gutters
Have you noticed tiny, dark particles collecting in your gutter system? These are likely shingle granules. This means that your roof shingles are weakening, wearing thin, and in need of replacement.
Sunlight Coming into Your Attic
If you can you see rays of light streaming through your roof boards and into your attic, then a new roof is in order because if light can infiltrate your attic, so can water. And once water seeps into your roof boards, your attic will become susceptible to mold and rot.
