When to Replace Your Roofing

When to Replace Your RoofingYou probably don’t give too much thought to roofing, as long as it keeps the water and cold out during the chilly or rainy months. However, if your roof starts to leak, it may cause serious damage that will be costly to repair, so it’s better to keep an eye on your roof and watch for warning signs that it needs replacing. If your home has an attic, that is a good place to start your inspection. Look for dark spots, sagging, or any areas where the sun might be shining through.

If you don’t have an attic, you will need to climb a ladder, so you are eye-level with the roof. Check for missing or cracked shingles, loose material around openings (such as the chimney, pipes, or vents), signs of moisture or mold, and make sure that every drain has an exit path for water. If you do notice any of these problems, it may be time to replace your roofing before it becomes a bigger issue.

When you choose your new roofing materials, consider your climate and the type of weather that the roof will endure. At Vision Design Build Remodel, our certified roofing specialists can offer options and pricing for each of the roofing materials you may choose.
