10 Signs It’s Time to Replace Your Roof

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

How to Spot Roof Damage Early

Shingles That Are Missing or Damaged: Missing shingles leave your roof exposed, leading to water damage.
Cracked or Curled Shingles: Shingles that curl or crack often point to an old roof needing replacement.
Gutters Full of Granules: The presence of granules in the gutters means your shingles are losing their protective coating.
Water Stains or Leaks: Visible spots on ceilings or walls indicate roof leaks.
Sagging Roof Areas: Sagging areas can indicate severe structural damage that needs immediate attention.
Light coming through the attic: Light entering through the attic signals holes or weak points in your roof.
Moss and Algae Growth: Moss or algae growth on your roof can lead to material deterioration.
Increased Energy Bills: Poor insulation from roof damage affects efficiency.
Roof’s Age: Roofs typically last 20–25 years; if yours is older, it could be time to replace it.
Roof Damage from Storms: Strong winds or hail can cause immediate and severe issues.

If you wait too long to replace your roof, you risk extensive damage, mold issues, and increased repair bills.

Here are several roofing materials to consider for your replacement:

Asphalt shingles: Affordable and durable, asphalt shingles are a great choice for many homes.
Metal Roofing: Metal roofs provide durability and are ideal for both cold and hot climates.
