4 Signs You Need a New Roof

LEARN MORE ABOUT HOW TO KNOW WHETHER YOUR ROOF NEEDS TO BE REPLACED

Your roof is an integral part of your home. It helps keep your home, family, and your belongings safe from outside elements. That’s why it’s critical to replace your roof when it begins to show signs of wear and tear. Pride Roofing & Solar is here to provide you with four simple ways to determine whether your roof needs replacing.

AGE

If your roof is more than 20 years old, it’s time to consider a replacement. Even if you haven’t noticed any warning signs, it’s important to replace your roof as it’s nearing the end of its life expectancy to ensure you’re doing everything you can to keep your home and your family safe.

WATER DAMAGE AND/OR LEAKS

Roof leaks are one of the most obvious signs that your roof is damaged and needs to be replaced. We recommend going into your attic regularly to look for signs of water intrusion, including stains, smells, and visible mold growth. Keep an eye out for water throughout your home as well.

SAGGING ROOF

As your roof ages, it becomes more susceptible to elements such as rain and snow, which can cause it to sag. If there are spots on your roof that are beginning to sag,  you should contact a contractor for roof replacement immediately, as sagging roofs may collapse as they grow weaker.
