Replacing your whole roofing system is a significant investment. So, it’s important to know if you actually need to replace it. Sometimes, you just need to repair the system. Should you invest in roof repair or replacement? Here are some of the factors to consider to help you make a decision:
Age
Regular shingles can last approximately 15 to 25 years. If your roof is older than this, it might be a good time to call for a replacement service. However, some roofing systems last longer than this.. In this case, a spot repair is enough.
Damage
Your roof maintenance provider should be able to assess the extent of damage in your roofing system. Widespread leaking is a good indicator that you need a thorough inspection. Dents, leaks and missing shingles are some of the common kinds of damage on your roof. Extensive damage will require roofing replacement.
