There will eventually come a time when you have to get a roof replacement on your home. Trying to avoid having this type of project started can result in significant damage to your roof and your home. Knowing when that time will be is important.
If There Is Leaking in Your Attic
Noticing water in your attic can be incredibly stressful due to the fact that it often indicates that your roof is leaking and that you need to have an emergency roof repair performed. If water continues to enter your attic, it can result in mold, mildew, or fungus growing inside. This can create a very harmful environment. Leaking in your attic can also lead to your roof rotting or suffering significant damage.
If There Are Cracks Between Your Flashing
If flashing is not properly placed and sealed correctly, it can leave cracks between each panel, which increases the risk of water leaking through to your roof and eventually making its way inside your attic. Water damage can result in significant repairs that are incredibly costly to perform. At the site of any cracks between your flashing, it could mean that you need a roof replacement as soon as possible to prevent further damage from occurring.
If You Have Problems With Your Gutters
If your gutters are not functioning correctly, it could result in water becoming trapped on your roof. When water is not able to be redirected away from your home, it can result in it penetrating through your roof and causing significant damage. It can also result in pedaling on your roof, which can weigh down areas and result in a potential collapse. If there are problems with your gutters, you need to take action to address them immediately. Scheduling a roof inspection will help to determine if you need a roof replacement.
If You Spot Hail Damage
After a serious storm, you may notice that there are spots of granules missing from the shingles on top of your roof. If there is a significant amount of hail damage on your shingles, it may be time for a roof replacement. Hail damage can have a significant impact on the overall quality and function of your shingles. If the issue is not addressed in a timely manner, it could result in water penetrating your underlayment and making its way inside your home.
You Have a Widespread Problem
If there are any widespread problems on your roof, it could indicate that a roof replacement will be the most economical option for you. Trying to address each individual problem can add up quickly. It also increases the risk of failure later on. Rather than spending endless time and money on addressing each individual problem, a full roof replacement will allow you to tackle it all at once.
