5 Signs It’s Time to Replace Your Roof

Your roof is your home’s first line of defense against the elements. But like anything else, it won’t last forever. Recognizing the early signs of roof failure can save you thousands in potential water damage and structural repairs.

Here are five key signs you may need a roof replacement:

1. Curling or Missing Shingles
Shingles that are curling, buckling, or completely missing leave your home exposed to moisture and weather damage.

2. Water Stains or Leaks in the Attic
If you see discoloration or dampness in your attic after a rainstorm, that’s a red flag your roof isn’t doing its job.

3. Sagging Roof Deck
A drooping or uneven roofline could indicate underlying rot or structural issues.

4. Granule Loss
Check your gutters—if they’re full of asphalt granules, your shingles may be wearing out.

5. Age of the Roof
Most asphalt shingle roofs last 20–25 years. If yours is nearing that mark, it’s time to consider a replacement.
