If you’re considering having a roof replacement performed but are unsure as to whether or not it’s time for a replacement, it’s important to consider all of the factors that lead to requiring a roof replacement. Typically, the average lifespan of a roof can be between 15-20 years if it was installed with 3-tab asphalt shingles. However, other asphalt shingles can last up to 10 years longer than 3-tab shingle roofs. While this lifespan isn’t the only determining factor, it is one of the first things you can look at to see whether or not it might be time for a replacement.
What to Look for to Determine if a Roof Replacement is Required
In addition to keeping the age of your roof in mind, there are many other warning signs to look for when determining whether or not it’s time for a replacement. One of the first factors to look for is to check and see if there is any water damage or leaks. A leak in your roof is a major sign that you need a new roof because even a small leak can grow and become a much larger problem, causing damage to your property and possessions.
Furthermore, a sagging ceiling is something you can look for to determine whether or not a leak in the roof is causing moisture in the ceiling and has not been identified. This is a quick way to get ahead of any damage before it becomes a serious problem. A sagging ceiling should not be ignored because moisture damage can cause serious problems to not just your roof but your entire home. And, another surefire way to know if it’s getting close to the time for a roof replacement is if you see missing or broken shingles. This means that your roof is no longer providing adequate protection and can be the result of decay or poor-quality shingles.
