Since your roof’s job is to protect your interior from bad weather, wear and tear is inevitable. No roof lasts forever, so if you see signs of excessive damage, it’s time to call Empire Roofing and More, the top professional roofing contractor in our area. Here are the things you should look for:
Your Roof Has Missing Shingles
This is a clear sign you need to start planning for a new roof soon. Missing shingles expose your underlayment to damage. Water can cause the underlayment to then deteriorate, and given enough time, leaks will damage your attic and ceiling. Call us a for a professional inspection as soon as you can.
Your Roof Is More Than Two Decades Old
An asphalt shingle roof can protect your home for many years, as long as you properly maintain it. However, roof leaks and other problems will occur more frequently once your roof is more than two decades old. Call us for an inspection so that we can check your roof’s condition and give you an estimate on how long your roof is likely to last. As the top choice for roofing services in our area, we can help you determine if you need to start planning for your roof replacement soon.
You See Shingle Granules in Your Gutters
This is a good sign that your shingles are nearing the end of their expected life span. These granules protect your shingles from the effects of long-term sun exposure and without them, your shingles are likely to start curling, blistering or cracking. Call us so we can check if any leaks have formed and evaluate the condition of your asphalt shingles.
