When water leaks into your home, it can be difficult to determine where the water is coming from and how much damage was done. We can assess whether your roof is easily fixable, or a potential risk! Our Owens Corning Platinum Preferred Contractors ensure you understand the state of your roof. Here are five factors you should consider when weighing the options of getting a roof replacement or repair.
Age of Roof
What year was your roof installed? The materials used may need an update! Repairs on older rooftops can add up over time, so consider investing in a roof replacement to avoid the extra costs!
Roof Leaks
Being aware of roof leaks is crucial to determine whether you need repair or reroofing. Small leaks, if not treated right away, may result in larger issues, such as:
- Mold
- Damaged ceilings
- Wet or destroyed insulation
- Rooting framing and roof sheathing
Signs of Damage
Signs of roof damage include:
- Cracked or broken shingles
- Rusted metal shingles or panels
- Old and worn looking roofing material
- Dented or perforated roofing components
- The presence of moss, dark streaks, or algae
- Missing granules or bald spots on asphalt shingles
- Curled or cupped edges on asphalt or wood shingles
Geographical Location
Your environment and surrounding weather patterns in your region impact your home’s exterior. Damage may be caused on your roof by:
- Rainstorms
- Hail Storms
- Winter weather
- Summer Heatwaves
- Hurricanes and tropical storms
Roof Replacement Cost
Generally, roofing repairs cost less than an entire replacement. However, paying for repairs over the years could exceed the cost of a roof replacement! Read a previous blog to learn more about how often you should replace your roof.
