When is it time to replace your roof?



When is it time to replace your roof? The average roof will last 10 to 20 years. Inspect your roof at least yearly. Look for signs of wear and tear, broken shingles, cracking, curling, bubbling, areas of loose granules on asphalt shingles and heavy moss growth. 


Also, look around the interior of your home for damp or dark spots especially around chimneys and vents. 

Waiting too long to replace your roof can be costly. Moisture damage can lead to expensive repairs. If you think it might be time to replace your roof, contact a professional to check it out. Find a list of qualified contractors at http://www.responsiblecontractors.com/roofing_contractor.html
