Signs You Need a Roof Replacement

Not sure if it’s time for a new roof? Watch for these common indicators:

Age of the Roof – Most roofing materials have a lifespan of 20-50 years, depending on material and maintenance. If your roof is nearing the end of its expected service life, it may be time for a replacement.
Visible Damage – Cracked, curled, or missing shingles can expose your home to water infiltration, leading to interior damage and mold growth.
Water Leaks – Persistent roof leaks signal structural issues that could lead to costly repairs if ignored. A roof replacement may be the most cost-effective long-term solution.
Moss or Algae Growth – These issues are not just cosmetic; they can weaken roofing materials over time. Proper maintenance can slow the process, but widespread growth is often a sign of underlying moisture problems.
Increased Energy Bills – A failing roof can lead to poor insulation, causing heating and cooling costs to rise significantly. Consider looking into roof financing options to make replacement more affordable.

Roof Replacement: Lifespan vs. Cost Considerations

When considering a roof replacement, two critical factors come into play: durability and cost. The chart above provides a visual comparison of different roofing materials, showcasing their average lifespan and estimated cost per square foot.

Asphalt shingles remain the most affordable option, averaging around $3 per square foot with a lifespan of 25 years.
