Signs your home is in need of roof repairs

A good roof is sound investment for any home. Your roof takes a lot of abuse from the weather, extreme temperatures, and objects tossed around in the wind. Most roofs last between 15-20 years before they need to be replaced. Here are a few ways you can tell when your home needs a roof replacement.

1. Your roof has lost its curb appeal - If your roof is looking old and worn when you look at it from the street, it is probably time to call your local roofers. Replacing an old roof is a quick way to increase your home’s value if you are in a hurry to sell.
2. The shingles are deteriorating - you can usually tell your shingle roofing needs to be replaced when you start finding bits and pieces of it in your gutters or yard. They usually appear to look like thick black sand or pebbles.
3. Water damage in your attic or walls - A leaky roof is a disaster waiting to happen. If you have started to notice the interior or exterior walls of your home starting to bubble or wet spots in your attic, call for a roof replacement immediately.
4. Increased utility bills - If you have started to notice an increase in your monthly energy bills a good place to look for the source is on your roof. Your roof is a barrier that helps control the temperature on the inside of your house. Replacing your roof is good way to save money on these monthly costs and keep you more comfortable.
