As a homeowner, you understand the importance of keeping your roof in good condition.

ROOF REPAIR: AN EFFECTIVE SOLUTION FOR MINOR ISSUES
If your roof is relatively new and has a few minor issues, such as a few missing shingles or a small leak, roof repair may be the right choice for you. Roof repair is an effective and affordable solution for addressing minor issues and preventing them from becoming more significant problems. A professional roofing contractor can quickly identify any issues and repair them using premium-quality materials to ensure your roof’s integrity.
ROOF REPLACEMENT: A NECESSITY FOR SEVERE DAMAGE
In some cases, a roof replacement may be the only option. It may be beyond repair if your roof has significant damage, such as extensive water damage or severe roof leaks. A roof replacement may also be necessary if your roof is nearing the end of its lifespan. If you have an asphalt roof, its average lifespan is around 20 years, after which it loses its protective properties and deteriorates rapidly. By replacing your roof, you can restore its integrity and protect your home from further damage.
OTHER FACTORS TO CONSIDER
Besides the extent of the damage, other factors can influence your decision to repair or replace your roof. For instance, if your roof has a high slope, it may be more challenging and expensive to repair. Similarly, if you plan to sell your home in the near future, a roof replacement may be a wise investment as it can boost your home’s value and curb appeal.
