At times, identifying whether or not you need a new roof or just a roof repair can be difficult. Keep an eye out for the following signs:
Missing, curled or cracked shingles. Whether you have found shingles in your yard after a windstorm or you have noticed your shingles are curling up at the edges, it may be time to replace them.
Water leakage in the attic. Check your attic space after a heavy rainstorm or icy weather to spot any signs of water leakage.
Inadequate attic ventilation. Your home could need improved attic ventilation to moderate temperature extremes.
Dark areas on the roof. You may notice dirty-looking blotches or dark areas on your roof. These could be signs of decay.
Mold or mildew stains on the interior walls. Mold and mildew can begin to grow on the interior walls if there is a significant problem.
