Some quality Warren roof repair may be necessary if you notice any of these red flags! Here we will discuss just a few indicators of a roof in need of repair or even replacement. Hopefully, noticing these red flags early on will help prevent any unnecessary stress in an emergency repair later on.
Red Flags: When to Schedule Warren Roof Repair
1. Your Roof is Getting Old!
First, if your roof is between twenty and twenty five years old, it’s probably time to schedule a roof inspection. The average roof will last between twenty and thirty years, but not often without some type of repair or conditioning. Some factors that will determine the lifespan of your roof include the number of layers of shingles on your roof, if an old roof was previously replaced or simply improved over, and the quality of ventilation in your roof.
2. Shingle Condition
If any, some, or most of your shingles are in poor condition, you are in need of roof repair and maybe even replacement! Poor condition shingles are those that have begun to curling up at the edges or are clawing, or buckling in a way that makes them look bubbled up in the middle. Shingles should maintain their flatness against the surface of the roof, otherwise moisture and wind and get in between the shingles and the roof and start to cause even more damage.
Another type of poor condition shingle to watch out for are those that are losing the granules on the shingle itself. This is a sign that the shingles are old and wearing down. You should also keep note of any visible cracks in any shingles as these will also need to be replaced.
Finally, be sure you aren’t missing any shingles. Missing shingles is a good sign that your roof is in need of repairs.
3. Inconsistency
Watch out for inconsistencies in your roofing color, the amount of granules being left in the gutter, or in the roof valleys where most of the water and snow runoff will occur. If you notice any inconsistencies in these places, there is a chance that you will need some type of Warren roof repair, or that you are in need of a roof replacement. Too many shingle granules in the gutter is a sign of an aging roof, so just because the whole roof doesn’t seem to be damaged, the whole roof is probably in need of replacement.
4. Too Much Light
Well, any light. If you are noticing any day light through the attic, you are definitely in need of some repairs or even a roof replacement. Another red flag to look for is a spongey or bounce feeling when walking on the roof (if you venture out for your inspection, always taking the highest safety precautions!) or any moisture in your insulation.
