Signs Your Springfield Roof Needs Replacing
Most roofs give plenty of warning before they fail. The trouble is that the early signs are easy to miss from the ground, and a small problem on an old roof tends to spread. Shingle roofs typically last 20 to 30 years, depending on the materials, the weather they see and how well they are kept up. Once yours passes 20 years, we recommend having it looked at regularly.
- Leaks that keep coming backRepeated stains or drips usually mean the roof as a whole is worn out, not just one spot.
- Sagging or dipsA roofline that dips points to weakened decking or framing that a repair will not fix.
- Curling or buckling shinglesShingles that cup, curl or buckle no longer lie flat and let wind and water get underneath.
- Rot, mold or soft spotsMoisture in the attic or soft decking means water has been getting in for a while.
