Your roof doesn't need to be leaking to be reshingled
Does My Roof Need New Shingles?HOW DO I KNOW WHEN I NEED NEW SHINGLES
TIME FOR A NEW ROOF?
Your roof is one of the most important parts of your home. Keeping it in good shape is key to preventing leaks, water damage, and costly repairs.
But how do you know when it’s time to reshingle your roof?
Here are the key signs to look for:
Curling, Cracking, or Buckling Shingles
Shingles that are curling up or cracking are no longer properly protecting your roof.
Missing or Loose Shingles
If you notice shingles falling off or missing, your roof is vulnerable to water damage.
Granules in the Gutters
As shingles age, they shed granules, which look like sand or gravel in your gutters. This means your shingles are breaking down.
Roof Leaks or Water Stains
Water stains on ceilings or walls can indicate a leaking roof—a major sign that new shingles are needed.
Moss or Algae Growth
Excess moss or algae can trap moisture, causing shingle deterioration over time.
Your Roof is 15-25+ Years Old
Most asphalt shingle roofs last 20-25 years. If yours is reaching this age, an inspection is a good idea.
Sagging Roof
A sagging roof could indicate serious structural issues, requiring immediate attention.
Sunlight Coming Through the Attic
If you see daylight coming through the attic ceiling. Your shingles (or roof decking) may be compromised.

Structural Inspection
A sagging roof can be a sign of structural damage or weakened rafters. It’s crucial to have a qualified contractor or structural engineer assess the situation.
Identify the Cause
Common causes of sagging include:
Excessive weight from snow or ice.
Water damage from leaks.
Inadequate support or framing issues.
Poor installation of roofing materials.
Repair or Reinforce Structure
Depending on the assessment, you may need to:
Replace or reinforce damaged rafters or trusses.
Add additional support beams.
Address any water damage in the attic or roof structure.
Ventilation and Insulation
Poor ventilation can lead to moisture buildup, which may contribute to sagging. Ensure your attic is properly ventilated and insulated to prevent further issues.
Regular Maintenance
After repairs, regular roof maintenance can help prevent future problems.
