Signs you need a new roof:
Check your records to find the age of the roof. Roofs need replacing after 20 to 25 years.
Check the attic for beams of light or stains that signal a leaky roof.
Check the rooftop for missing, cracked, curled, or buckling shingles.
Look for shingle granules in the gutters and downspouts.
Examine the roof flashing around chimneys, vents, and skylights to ensure there are no cracks or leaking.
Check the surface for sagging areas, rotting boards, water damage, and mold and fungi.
If you are still unsure you need a new roof, schedule a roof inspection.
