There are signs that your roof is aging and it’s time to start thinking about replacement. Damaged shingles that are curling or cracked could be small signs, while sags and leaks could be signs of bigger issues. Replacing a roof is a big investment and it’s important to make sure it’s done properly to last as long as it’s meant to.
Fair and Square Roofing in Edmonton are re-roofing professionals. They share some signs that mean it’s time to replace your roof.
Damaged shingles
Replacing shingles here and there isn’t a big deal, but when entire shingles are curling or cracked, it’s a sign that a roof needs replacement. Curled shingles can be a sign of weathering and could allow moisture to get into your roof. If shingles are cracking all over and not just one spot, this could be a sign for a roof replacement.
Tip: If you don’t have a new roof and start to notice asphalt pieces in the gutter, your shingles are probably halfway through their life.
Sags in the roof
If you notice any sagging in your roof, call in a contractor immediately. It could mean that the roof has been leaking for a long time and the decking beneath that area is rotten. It could also be a structural issue! Noticing a sag in your roof could be due to an issue with the framework found in the attic. It might even be due to issues with the foundation. The right thing to do as soon as you notice is to call a roofing expert. Don’t wait until the issue has worsened, it’s better to call when it’s still in one spot.
Leaks
Keeping moisture and water out is the main purpose of a roof, so as soon as that doesn’t happen, it’s time to call a professional. Regular inspections of your roof can help spot issues with moisture early and avoid expensive repairs. If you suspect your roof is leaking, do not leave it. Water damage can spread quickly and if left, can result in a very expensive repair bill to other components of your home.
