Signs Your Roof Needs Replacement

While small problems with a roof can often be fixed, it comes time to replace the roof when damages are so extensive that the most cost-effective solution is to replace it all. If you are trying to determine whether you should repair or replace, these are a few signs that a full roof replacement may be the best choice:

1. Sagging roof deck. If you look into your attic and see sagging areas of the roof, or if you see sunken areas from outside, this is a serious problem that indicates the need for a new roof. The old roofing material needs to be removed and the sagging, damaged plywood needs replacement.
2. Curling, warped or damaged shingles. When there is widespread damage to the shingles on your roof, replacing the whole roof typically makes more sense than picking and choosing which shingles to replace. Simply opt for a full replacement.
3. Moss or algae stains. While algae growth can sometimes be washed off, when washing isn’t cutting it, you may want to replace the roof. This could be merely an aesthetic decision but looks do matter when it comes to home value and pride of ownership.
