1.     Age: The age of your roof is a major factor in determining whether it needs to be replaced. Most roofs last between 15-25 years, depending on the type of material used. If your roof is approaching or has exceeded its expected lifespan, it may be time for a replacement.

2.     Curling, buckling or missing shingles: If you notice that some of the shingles on your roof are curling up or buckling, or if you have missing shingles, it’s a sign that your roof is in need of repair or replacement. These issues can cause water to seep through your roof and into your home, causing water damage and potentially leading to mold growth.

3.     Leaks: If you see water stains on your ceiling or walls, it’s likely that your roof is leaking. This can be a sign of damaged or missing shingles, cracked flashing, or other issues that require attention. If you notice any leaks, it’s important to address them right away to prevent further damage to your home.

4.     Sagging roof deck: If your roof deck is sagging or drooping, it’s a sign of a serious structural problem. This can be caused by water damage, rot, or other issues that require immediate attention. If you notice a sagging roof deck, it’s important to have your roof inspected by a professional right away.

5.     Granule loss: Asphalt shingles are coated with granules that help protect them from the sun and weather. Over time, these granules can wear away, leaving the shingles vulnerable to damage. If you notice a lot of granules in your gutters or around the base of your home, it’s a sign that your roof is nearing the end of its lifespan.

6.     Energy bills: If you notice that your energy bills have been steadily increasing, it could be a sign that your roof is no longer functioning as efficiently as it should. This can be caused by a number of issues, including poor insulation, ventilation, or an aging roof.

7.     Visible damage: If you can see visible damage to your roof, such as cracks, dents, or holes, it’s a sign that your roof is in need of repair or replacement. These issues can compromise the integrity of your roof, leading to leaks and other problems.

If you notice any of these signs, it’s important to have your roof inspected by a professional. A qualified roofing contractor can assess the condition of your roof and recommend the best course of action. Investing in a new roof can help protect your home and family for years to come.
