When Do You Need a New Roof?
Having to replace a roof can be a daunting part of home ownership, but putting it off can make existing problems worse and lead to increased costs down the line. In some cases, it is clear to see that a roof needs to be replaced, while other times it is more difficult to spot.
Signs You Need a New Roof
Below is a list of visual indicators that your roof may need to be replaced:
