Delaying roof replacement isn’t the wisest idea — an old and unsightly roof can detract from a home’s curb appeal and value. Plus, beat-up roofs can lead to costly rainwater leaks and damage from harsh weather conditions, as well as increased heat transfer that can add up to higher monthly utility bills.
So, how can you be sure that your home is due for roof replacement? Consulting an experience roofing contractor is the only way to know for certain, but here are a few common signs that roof replacement is probably warranted:
- You have water damage in your attic
- It was installed more than 20 years ago
- You’ve noticed higher monthly energy bills
- It is stained or peeling
- Shingles are missing, crumbling, or out of place
- Your gutters are full of shingle granules
