5 Signs You Need a New Roof

Your roof is one of the most important components of your home, yet it's easy to overlook until a major problem arises. Here are five signs that indicate it might be time for a new roof.

1. Age of Your Roof: Most asphalt shingle roofs last 20-25 years. If your roof is approaching or past this age, it's time to start planning for a replacement, even if it appears to be in good condition.

2. Curling or Missing Shingles: If you notice shingles that are curling, buckling, or missing entirely, this is a clear sign of wear. These issues compromise your roof's ability to protect your home from water damage.

3. Granules in Your Gutters: Finding excessive granules in your gutters is a sign that your shingles are deteriorating. Granules protect shingles from UV rays, and their loss accelerates aging.

4. Daylight Through Roof Boards: If you can see daylight coming through your roof boards from inside your attic, you have a serious problem that likely requires immediate attention.

5. Sagging Roof Deck: A sagging roof deck is a sign of structural issues that could be caused by long-term water damage or inadequate support. This requires immediate professional assessment.
