What Signs Indicate the Need for a New Roof?

There are several signs that may indicate it’s time for a new roof, including:

  • Visible Damage such as cracked, curling, or missing tiles or shingles.
  • Leaks, like water stains on ceilings or walls and noticeable leaks during rain.
  • A Sagging Roofline. A drooping or uneven roofline could signal structural issues.
  • Aging Roofs, most roofs have a lifespan of 20-30 years, depending on materials.
  • Increased Energy Bills such as poor insulation or ventilation caused by roof damage.
Should I Repair or Replace the Roof?

Property managers have several options when addressing flaws in their roofing systems.

  • A Full Roof Replacement which is essential when more than 25% of the roof is compromised or if you’re looking to upgrade with the latest roofing technology for a durable, long-term solution.
  • Roof Recovery this being if the insulation is still in good condition, recovering the existing roof is a cost-effective alternative to replacement. However, keep in mind that roof recovery can only be done once.
  • Roof Repairs, for minor issues, repairing the roof is a practical option to extend its lifespan while keeping costs low.
  • A Roof Coating which not only protects it from leaks but also enhances energy efficiency with reflective coatings that deflect harmful UV rays, reducing cooling costs.

Whether it’s replacement, recovery, repair, or coating, each solution offers unique benefits tailored to your roofing needs. Contact us today to find the best option for your property!

How long does a new roof last?

The lifespan of a roof depends on the material used. Asphalt shingles typically last 20-30 years, metal roofs can last 40-70 years, and tile or slate roofs can last over 50 years with proper maintenance.

How often should I have my roof inspected?

It’s recommended to have your roof inspected at least once a year and after severe storms to catch potential issues early.
