When to Repair vs. When to Replace Your Asphalt Shingle Roof
Knowing whether your asphalt shingle roof needs repairs or a full replacement can save you money and prevent bigger problems down the road. Here’s how to tell the difference:
- Minor Damage: A few missing, cracked, or curled shingles can usually be repaired without replacing the entire roof.
- Leaks from Flashing or Seals: Often, leaks around chimneys, vents, or skylights can be fixed by resealing or replacing flashing.
- Granule Loss in Isolated Areas: If only small patches are losing granules, spot repairs or shingle replacement can extend your roof’s life.
- Storm or Impact Damage: After hail or fallen branches, localized repairs often suffice if the underlying structure is intact.
- Roof is Less Than 15-20 Years Old: If your roof is still relatively young and in generally good shape, repairs can be a cost-effective option.
- Widespread Shingle Damage: If many shingles are cracked, curled, or missing, the roof’s protective layer is compromised.
- Multiple Leaks or Water Damage: Persistent leaks or water stains inside your home often signal extensive roof deterioration.
- Roof Age Exceeds 20-30 Years: Asphalt shingles typically last 20-30 years; once they near the end of this lifespan, replacement is usually necessary.
- Sagging or Structural Issues: Any signs of roof sagging or damage to the decking underneath require a full roof replacement for safety.
- Significant Granule Loss Over Large Areas: When granule loss is widespread, shingles lose their UV protection, accelerating deterioration.
