If you suspect your roof is leaking and is in need of repair, or may be in need of replacement there are some steps you can take to help determine the condition of your shingles. First take in consideration the age of your roof. If your shingles are 15 years old or older it may be showing signs of wear. Depending on what type of shingle was put on previously, how well it was installed, how well your roof is ventilated, and what type of outside elements your roof has been exposed to will depend on how long your roof will last. # 1 To determine if your roof is showing signs of wear, take a visual look outside from the ground, do you see any shingles starting to curl up? This is a sign that your roof may be in need of replacement (see picture below)
# 2 Do you see any hair line cracks in your shingles? (see picture below) This could be another sign that your roof is in need of replacement.
# 3 Do you see any shingles missing?
# 4 Take a look at your chimney flashing and valley’s. Do you see any signs of rust or separation? This can be another sign of a current or potential problem.
# 5 Take a look on the inside of your home, do you see any stains on the ceilings or walls? If so, this could be a sign that your roof is leaking.
# 6 If you can access your attic, take a flashlight and shine it up in your attic. Shine your light on the roof decking. Do you see any water stains on the roof decking or roof trusses? You can also check the insulation (after a rain), is there any damp or wet insulation? If you see any of these signs of moisture problems have a reputable roofing contractor inspect your roof as soon as possible to avoid any water damage.
Even if your roof isn’t leaking (or your not sure) but is showing signs of wear as mentioned in 1-4 (above), don’t wait for a leak. Once your roof develops a leak the problems can just escalate from there causing wood rot, interior damage, termites, foundation , mold, and other problems.
