5 Signs Your Roof Needs to Be Replaced

Your roof is your home or business’s first line of defense against the elements. As it experiences general wear and tear, or sudden damage, you’ll need to ensure it’s maintained and eventually replaced. Is your roof on its final days? Check for these 5 signs.

Missing shingles

This can indicate that your shingles are weakening and separating from the layer below. Although you may be able to replace the missing shingles, you should also have your roof inspected to see if more serious solutions are required.

1

Curling, cupping, or clawing

If your roof looks like it’s peeling away and pointing upward from the building, it likely needs to be replaced – sooner rather than later.

2

Cracking or broken shingles

As your roof heats and cools over time, its shingles can expand and contract, resulting in damage. If you see cracks or tears, or if you keep finding shingle fragments on the ground, schedule an inspection ASAP.

3

Sagging roof

Does your residential or business roof look like it’s drooping? This could be indicative of severe water damage or broken rafters, both of which are serious problems that need to be addressed by professionals.

4

General aging

If your roof was last replaced (or installed) over 20 years ago, it’s likely time to consider replacing it. Most roofs are built to last between 15 to 30 years. Schedule a professional inspection to determine if your roof has exceeded its lifespan.
