If you’re a homeowner and are unsure if you need a new roof or unsure when you’ll need a new roof, you’re not alone. It’s not uncommon for people to think about other things than their roof, I get it. But hey, since you’re here, you might’ve just experienced a roof problem that has led you to research “roof replacement”.
Let us be your guide in learning the signs you may need the roof replaced.
Light Shining Through
Take a look in your home’s attic. Do you notice light shining through the beams? If you see light coming through, check for signs of water damage. Call a roofing contractor to have your roof inspected if you see light and identify water damage.
Age
If your roof is 20-30 years old, it might be time to consider getting it inspected for replacement. A roof in Arizona typically requires repairs or replacement within 20 years. However, with proper installation and routine maintenance, your roof can last up to 40-50 years.
Curled Shingles
Take a look at your roof and scan for curled shingles. When shingles curl, you’re at risk for leaks that can cause serious damage to other places in your home. If you notice curled shingles, call in a roofing company to inspect the roof.
Granules
If you see granules in the gutters and your roof is over 20 years old, it might be time for a new roof. This is a sign the current shingles are losing their durability as they loose granules.
Missing and Cracked Shingles
Inspect your roof for missing or cracked shingles. This is a good indicator it’s time to replace the roof.
