When to Consider Roof Replacement
Not every roofing problem requires complete replacement – many issues can be resolved through targeted roof repair work that extends your current roof’s life while you plan for eventual replacement. However, certain signs indicate it’s time for a full roof replacement:
- Your roof is 20+ years old
- Multiple leaks or widespread damage
- Curling, cracking, or missing shingles
- Sagging roof deck
- Excessive granule loss in gutters
- Rising energy bills
Severe weather damage sometimes necessitates complete roof replacement, particularly when storm damage repair reveals extensive structural issues or widespread system compromise that affects roof integrity.
Residential & Commercial Roof Replacement
We handle both residential roof renovation and commercial roof replacement projects. Commercial roof replacement projects involve complex considerations like business continuity and specialized membrane systems, requiring experienced commercial roofing contractors who understand large-scale installation challenges.
