Signs That You Need Reroofing

Roof Restoration

The roof is often the most neglected part of a house. After all, it’s usually tucked away out of sight and only comes into play when there’s a leak or other serious problem. But while your roof may be out of sight, it shouldn’t be out of mind: if you don’t get it inspected regularly or perform maintenance yourself, you could end up with an expensive problem on your hands.

In this blog post we’ll tell you what signs to look for (and how often) so that you can catch problems before they become major issues!

The Roof is more than 20 Years old

If your roof is more than 20 years old, it is time for Reroofing Adelaide. You can tell the age of a roof by looking at the shingles. If there is a lot of moss on the roof and some shingles are missing or faded, it indicates that the material has been exposed to harsh weather elements for quite some time. The best way to protect your home from weather-related damage is to replace your old roof with Reroofers’ services and save money while doing so.

Leaks

If you are experiencing leaks, it’s more than likely that your roof needs repair. Leaks can cause damage to the interior of your house and to the outside of it as well. They can also cause damage to gutters, shingles and other materials used on roofs.

Light Peering through Shingles

Shingles are used on residential and commercial roofs as the most common roofing material. Shingles come in many shapes and sizes, but they’re all made from asphalt or some other synthetic material.

Asphalt shingles have a number of benefits: they’re inexpensive, easy to install and provide good insulation for your home or business. However, if you live in an area that has frequent rainfall or hail storms (like Colorado), your asphalt shingle roof will probably need to be replaced after 10-15 years due to damage caused by sun exposure and weather conditions like rainwater infiltration or ice dams along the edges of your roof where the rubber sealant is missing or worn away from too much water seeping behind it into the drywall underneath.

Sagging Ridge

The highest point of your roof is called the ridge. If the ridge has started to sag, it means that your roof is getting old and needs to be replaced. A sagging ridge can cause leaks and other problems with your home’s structure, so it’s important to look for signs of deterioration before it gets worse.

Dips and Ponding water

The roof is the most important part of your home. It’s the first line of defence against the elements, and it protects your home from water damage, fire, sun damage and hail. If you notice dips or ponding water on your roof (or if you have a friend with an eye for this sort of thing), there could be leaks in your roof.

As you can see, there are many reasons why it’s time to Reroofing Adelaide. Not only will a new roof prolong the life of your home, but it will also help protect it from moisture damage and other hazards.
