10 Signs it’s Time to Replace Your Roof
You can expect your roof to protect your protect your family for the next 30 years. But your roof should be looked at yearly, or a replacement may come sooner than later as a result of several things, including but not limited to hail damage, low-quality roofing materials, and poor attic ventilation or installation.
It is essential to catch the warning signs of a failing roof early. Take 10 minutes and do a quick visual inspection of your roof. If you see any of these characteristics, you should call in an expert.
- Use binoculars to get a close look at the roof.
- Check gutters and the ground below downspouts for gritty granules worn from the surface of shingles.
10 Signs it’s Time to Replace Your Roof
- Curled or Buckled Shingles - That is a clear sign of old age.
- Missing Shingles or Granules - A sure sign that your roof has began losing its weatherproofing properties, and it’s an open pathway for water to enter into your home.
- Tar Streaking or Algae Growth - Found in most shingles with Limestone as a filler, bacteria start to eat away at the shingles weatherproofing properties.
- Leaky Chimneys, Skylights, Other - Is it flashed adequately so that your home is sealed away from the elements. The majority of the time, a leak occurs because of incorrect flashing around the unit.
Get in your attic and look for :
- Moisture and Mold - When mold grows in an attic, it results from a moisture problem. Warm air gets trapped in your attic due to poor ventilation, and condensation develops on the roof’s underside, causing rusty nails and, eventually, mold growth.
- Attic Temperature - Simple check, does it feel hotter or colder in your attic than it is outside? Your attic should have proper ventilation that circulates air in and out, keeping an ideal temperature of 10 to 20 degrees hotter than outside temperatures.
- Daylight Coming Through Roof Boards - If you see light streaking, you may have a big problem! Your roof decking is potentially missing nails, or the weatherproofing on the corrosive materials have deteriorated. (i.e., flashing, collars, and step flashing)
- Ice Dams - Giant icicles may look cool, but they are a sign of ice dams on your roof’s edge, and you’re looking at a roof replacement in your future.
- Excessively High Energy Bills - All of the above issues can lead to higher energy bills for your home.
Asphalt Roof Replacement
When homeowners are looking to do a roof replacement job on a budget while keeping an attractive look that will protect their homes against all weather types for several years, their top choice is always asphalt shingles.
A new asphalt shingle roof is an investment that can increase your home's overall value, help lower your energy costs, and continue to protect your family for the next 20 years.
Roof Replacement Estimate
The average roof replacement cost for homeowners in 2020 is just shy of $8,000.00, with most homeowners spending between $5,500.00 and $11,000.00. With an investment like that, you want to make sure you hire the right company.
Complete roof replacements typically happen in a few steps, starting with removing the existing shingles and underlayment down to the roof deck, fixing any spots on the roof deck that may need roof repairs. Next is installing new roofing materials. It is essential to know that a roof replacement price can fluctuate based on factors like:
- Size (How many sq. ft. is your roof)
- Pitch (Most common roof pitch is between 4/12 and 9/12.)
- How it's installed on your frame/deck
- Products and supplies
- Layers
- Code requirements
- Skylights, chimneys, plumbing pipes or other features
It is essential to know that contractors will quote you on a “per square” basis. For roofs, 100 square feet = one roofing square
Example: Your roof is 1580 square feet, your quote would be for 16 roofing squares.

A new roof for your home is something that only happens once or maybe twice in its lifespan. The average homeowner doesn’t know about roofing materials or hiring the correct roof contractor, so be patient and do your research.

What to Expect During the Roof Replacement Process
It’s time for your roof replacement, now what? The steps below may vary depending on your unique roof project, but our roof professionals follow a tried-and-true system and will typically have your new roof installed in a day's work.
- Property Protection: Laying down tarps wherever necessary to protect your siding, windows, bushes, and lawn.
- Remove the old roofing: Removal all old roofing material down to the roofing deck for a proper inspection.
- Evaluating sheathing: Our experts will start with a thorough inspection of your decking, removing and replacing any wet, rotten, or moldy roof decking. Additionally, they will make sure your roof is correctly attached to the rafters.
- Placing drip edge and underlayment: A piece of metal bent at 90 degrees to prevent rain from underneath roofing material on all trims.
- Secondary water barriers: An ice and water shield will be applied to the wood decking, followed by a felt layer.
- Roofing materials applied: It’s time to use the finishing touch— After all the above steps are complete, our experts start to lay down the new shingles. Starting from the bottom and working up to the top, followed by step and/or counter flashing, ridge vents, and ridge capping installation, as needed.
Our team of experts arrives at 8 am and is done by 6 pm seamlessly in most cases. Unfortunately, Mother Nature can decide she has other plans on the day of install. If it rains on your installation day, your timeline maybe a little longer than expected. Why?
We pride ourselves in safety and don’t want to put our team in any danger, and a steep, wet roof surface is what we call trouble. Plus, rain can damage your roofing materials and underlayment.
