Roof Leaks from Aging Roofs – Know When It’s Time
Most roofs last around two decades. If yours is approaching or past 20 years, it’s likely nearing the end of its useful life. Roof leaks in older roofs often indicate deeper wear.
How Roof Leaks Signal Structural Damage
If you see water damage inside—stains on ceilings, walls, or insulation—it suggests extensive deterioration. Often, roof leaks are a warning sign of more serious structural damage that should not be ignored.
Minor Roof Leaks That Can Be Repaired
Not all roof leaks require a full reroof. Isolated flashing issues, seal failures, or damage in new roofs can often be fixed quickly and affordably. Our team will advise honestly after a thorough inspection.
Preventing Roof Leaks with Regular Inspections
Prevent roof leaks before they begin. Routine inspections catch potential issues early, helping you avoid costly emergency repairs or premature replacement.
