FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
-
How do I know if I need a new roof?
There are several signs your roof may need to be replaced:
- Missing, cracked, or curling shingles
- Leaks or water stains on ceilings or walls
- Sagging areas on the roof
- Moss, mold, or algae growth
- Roof is 20+ years old (for asphalt shingles)
- Granules collecting in gutters
- Visible damage after a storm
If you’re unsure, we offer professional inspections to assess your roof’s condition and help you decide whether a repair or full replacement makes the most sense.
-
How long does a roof typically last?
The lifespan of a roof depends on the material and local weather conditions. On average:
- Asphalt shingles last 15–30 years
- Metal roofing can last 40–70 years
- TPO (for flat roofs) last around 20–30 years
Proper installation, ventilation, and regular maintenance can significantly extend the life of your roof.
If your roof is nearing the end of its expected lifespan, it's a good idea to schedule an inspection.
-
Can you install a new roof over my existing one?
Yes, in many cases a new roof can be installed over an existing one—this is called a re-roof or layover. It can save time and money by avoiding a full tear-off. However, it depends on the condition of your current roof, local building codes, and the number of existing layers (most areas only allow two).
We’ll inspect your roof to determine if a layover is a safe, effective option or if a full replacement is the better long-term solution.
-
How often should I have my roof inspected?
We recommend having your roof professionally inspected at least once a year, ideally in the spring or fall. You should also schedule an inspection after major storms or if you notice signs of damage like leaks, missing shingles, or sagging areas.
Regular inspections help catch small issues before they turn into costly repairs—and extend the life of your roof.
