You probably don’t think about your roof every day. However, your roof is working hard for you every day to keep you and your family safe, warm, and dry. As your roof ages, it may need more attention and care in order to stay in tip-top shape, and shingle roof replacement is necessary after about 20 years.
But how do you know if it’s time to replace your roof? There are different signs that you can look for in order to determine the state of your roof. Here are a few signs that your roof will likely need replacement in the near future:
- Age. Once your roof gets near the 20-year mark, it will likely need to be replaced.
- Curling shingles: When shingles curl, they can expose your roof to water damage and other issues.
- Missing shingles: Whether from a storm or regular wear and tear, missing shingles always present a problem and may indicate a need for roof replacement.
- Cracked shingles: Cracks in your shingles are another sign that they must be replaced.
- Water damage: Signs of mold, mildew, or water stains often indicate that a roof should be replaced.
- Pest problems: If you have issues with pests on your roof, this may be a sign that your roof needs to be replaced.
