How to tell when it's time to replace your roof

Salisbury Roofing

Roofing Installation can be a hassle, leave it to the professionals..we've got you "covered"!

We know from experience that it's not exactly fun replacing your roof. Most roofing solutions, depending on if its architectural or 3-tab shingle work, last generally either 15 or 30 years max. If you're not sure what type roof you have and easy way to tell is that the three-tab shingles are made out of a single layer so it's a flatter less defined surface. Architectural shingles are more pronounced, last longer, and are more versatile when it comes to styling options available to you.

We'll stake our name on that and never back down from out-doing a competitor.


 There are a few tell-tale signs that your roof has seen better days and is in need of a replacement. When the sun beats down on your roof year after year, it causes that asphalt material to slowly deteriorate, and granules slowly lose their bonds to one another. Shingle edges curling at the edges are probably the most noticeable sign of roof wear and tear, but cracking, bald spot, and even just discoloration can let you know that problems may be following closely behind.


Spotty work done by a sub-par contractor may not be very noticeable at first, but rest assured after 10-20 years these problems can start to show themselves. If done correctly, your roof can do for you what it was intended to do for the proper amount of time. If however the roofing materials were not bonded together properly, edges aren't straight and uniform, or if flashing material has been reused, this will shorten the lifespan or your shingle roof.
