Is it time for new shingles?
Determining the right time to contact a roofing company can be tough.
Unfortunately, many homeowners wait until severe damage is evident before seeking professional help. As shingles age, they can begin to develop cracks or gaps that allow water to seep in.
Here are a few warning signs that it might be time to call the roofing experts at John E. Steele, Jr. Inc.:
- Age of the roof: If your shingles are 20 years old or older, there’s a good chance they’re nearing the end of their lifespan.
- Curling shingles: If your shingles are curling at the edges or buckling, it’s a sign that there is significant wear and tear.
- Missing or broken shingles: Age and weather damage can contribute to this.
- Granule loss: If you’re finding excessive amounts of granules from asphalt shingles in your gutters, especially for roofs over 10 years old, it could indicate significant deterioration.
- Cracked shingles: Cracks in the shingles can allow water to get beneath the surface of your roof, potentially causing further damage.
- Bald spots or dark streaks: If you see spots where shingle granules are missing or dark streaks on your roof, this could indicate wear or algae growth.
- Lifting shingles: If your shingles are lifting at the bottom, they become more susceptible to water and wind damage.
If you see any of these signs, reach out to John E. Steele, Jr. Inc. Get damaged shingles replaced before more severe damage is caused by water leaks.
