Do I need a roof repair or a roof replacement?
Roof repairs can usually be the solution for shingle roofs that are less than 15 years old or for very long-lasting roofing materials like slate. Repairs are best when the damage is minor or located in one condensed area. If the damage is significant or occurring on more than ¼ of your roof, or if your shingle roof is more than 20 years old, it could be time for a full replacement. Our knowledgeable team members will always lend our advice to make sure you get the best solution for your unique situation.

How long do asphalt shingle roofs last?
Most modern architectural shingle roofs can last 20-30 years or even more with proper maintenance. The lifespan of an asphalt shingle roof often depends on how much extreme weather impact it receives.

Why is roof ventilation important?
Without proper roof ventilation, hot air can build up in your attic and cause accelerated aging and cracking on wood and poor energy performance. Balanced ventilation helps promote a cooler and drier attic and prevent excess moisture buildup.
