Time for a New Roof?

Most roofs need to be replaced, or at least repaired, every 10 years. However, a roof with the correct shape, materials and maintenance can last 20 to 50 years.

When inspecting your roof, the following guidelines can be used to indicate the degree to which your roof needs repair or replacement:

• Materially sound—not currently in need of repair or maintenance work.
• In need of minor repair, such as patchwork and coating.
• Requires resurfacing with a new membrane.
• Deteriorated to the extent that it requires total removal and replacement.
