Grace Roofing And Construction LLC, a roofing company High Point NC residents can rely on, has announced that they have recently published a blog post indicating the warning signs that a roof may already need to be replaced or at least repaired. They want to stress that delaying the replacement of an old or damaged roof may lead to even larger issues in the future. Thus, it is essential to look for warning signs to ensure that there is enough time to complete the roof replacement project before the problem worsens.
Richard Sakowski, owner of Grace Roofing And Construction LLC, says, “Roof age is a great way to determine whether or not you need a new roof. How old is your asphalt shingle roof? The majority of roofing experts agree that a typical roof lasts 20 to 25 years. It can also depend on if the old roof was removed and you only have one layer of shingles. Improper ventilation will have a huge effect on the longevity of your roof. If your roof was installed over a layer or multiple layers of shingles and is over 20 to 25 years old, there’s a good chance you need a new roof.”
Another warning sign that an asphalt shingle roof may need replacement is the presence of shingles that are curling or buckling. Homeowners are advised to check the slopes of their home that get the most sunlight. And if the shingles are curling and seem to be losing a lot of granules, it may indicate that the shingles are beyond their life expectancy. Or it could be that the roof has a defect. Either way, it would be advisable to have the roof inspected by a roofing professional when there are curling or buckling shingles on the roof.
It should be pointed out that the roofing experts from Grace Roofing And Construction LLC can be trusted as evidenced by the feedback from previous clients, such as the one found at https://g.page/Graceroofing27260?gm. For instance, John W. gave them a five star rating and said, “We recently had Grace Roofing replace our roof and install new gutters at our home. Richard [owner] was professional and attentive and the installation crew was second to none.”
Another warning sign that a roof may already need to be replaced is the presence of shingles that are breaking apart or there are missing shingles in the roof valleys. It is vital to inspect roof valleys because rain and snow flow into them and then go into the gutters. If there are missing or damaged shingles in these valleys, the water may find its way into the home, potentially causing additional problems.
Meanwhile, homeowners should also be aware of any missing shingles. While it does not necessarily mean that a roof replacement is required, missing shingles may be an indication that the roof is failing. If there are several missing or damaged shingles, it is advisable to have a professional roofing expert inspect the roof for any damage so that it may be repaired as early as possible before it becomes worse and require the replacement of the roof.
Another indicator that the roof may already need to be replaced is being able to see the sunlight through the attic. This may mean that there is a roof leak. While a leaky roof does not necessarily mean that the roof has to be replaced, this will depend on the extent of the damage resulting from the roof leak. Small holes may just need to be patched but if the holes have grown substantially, it may be a good idea to have the roof replaced. Once again, it is advisable to consult a roofing expert.
