Here are some guidelines to help you as you interview Gainesville roof replacement companies
Do I need roof repair or replacement?
Most asphalt roofing systems last 20 to 30 years, and tile or metal roofs often last 30 or more years. Weather damage and neglect can shorten a roof’s lifespan. If your roof shows signs of wear from weathering, it may be time for a replacement.
- See if your shingles are cracked, curled, or if some are missing. If you have “balding” shingles or if you find granules in your gutters, your roof probably needs replacement. If the flashing around your chimneys or vents is loose or rusty, your roof probably needs replacement. If moss is growing on your shingles, this can be an indication of damp spots under the shingles where leaks could develop over time creating significant damage over time.
- Take a close look inside your attic. See if there is any discoloration in the plywood, indicating that water may be leaking under the shingles. In that case, your roof will probably
need to be replaced.
- And, see if there is a sag in any of the plywood sheets. Any visible drop in your roof line is an indication that the wood may be rotting and deteriorating. If neglected, sags have the potential over time to cause the roof to collapse.
While it’s possible to repair any of these problems, if you identify several problems, it may be time for a roof replacement. If the total estimate for all your Gainesville repairs is $3,000 or more, it usually makes more sense to replace the roof than attempt extensive repairs.
