Almost every homeowner or commercial property owner comes to a point where they need to replace their roof.
Sometimes your roof simply reaches the end of its lifespan, and sometimes your roof has been affected by extreme weather conditions or even issues from within the property, like damp.
If your roof is displaying signs of old age or visible damage, it may be time to consider having your existing roof replaced. If that is the case, you can rest assured that you will receive the highest level of service from Pace Roofing Philadelphia.
Signs you need a new roof
Here are some things to look out for to help you decide if it's time for a full roof replacement.
Missing curled or cracked shingles
You should check your shingles as part of your regular roof maintenance and repairs. Most of the time, you can easily replace missing or damaged shingles to keep your roof in good condition. However, if the damage to the shingles is extensive or there are a lot of curled or cracked shingles, it could be time to replace your roof.
Discoloration
Patches of discoloration on your roof could be a sign of algae or rust damage. On metal roofs, rusty spots can indicate that the integrity of the roof has been compromised. On other materials, discoloration can be a sign of an algae issue. Left unchecked, algae can trap moisture and cause eventual water damage that could require a full roof replacement.
Your neighbors are having their roofs replaced
Quite often, your neighbor's houses were built a the same time as yours, and their roofs are a similar age. They're also exposed to the exact same weather conditions as your own roof, so if a few of your neighbors are having their roof replaced, it's probably time to think about replacing yours.
Your roof is over 20 years old
The average roof lasts 15-20 years in the right circumstances. Storm damage and adverse weather conditions can shorten this, and the quality of materials will also affect your roof's lifespan. Regular maintenance and repairs can extend the life of your roof, but eventually, your roof will need replacing with a new roof.
