What to Know Before Replacing a Roof

If you believe that your roof needs to be replaced, there are a few questions that you should consider before starting your project.

If you need help determining the answers to these questions, LGND Roofing provides free roof inspections to assist you in making the best decision for your family and property.

Roof Age

The first question to consider is, “How old is your roof?” If you still have a roof that is original to the property and your home is 15 to 20 years old, you will want to get your roof professionally inspected. It is important to note that sometimes a roof can last longer than this, but that will depend upon the type of roofing you have and what type of structure it is. You’ll want to ensure that you are checking the roof regularly if it is getting up there in age.

Roof Ventilation

The second question you’ll want to think about is, “How is my roof ventilated?” In order to keep your roof healthy and happy, you need proper ventilation. If it is not properly ventilated, you may have issues with mildew and mold that will need to be addressed. Having a professional inspect your roof for this type of issue is crucial if you want to ensure your roof is functioning properly and that your property is protected. Our team is here to help solve this problem, should we find it exists.

Roof Type

The last question you should consider is, “What type of roofing do I have?” Many people replace their roof with the same type of material that was previously used, but it is important to know that you have options. There are several different types of roofing available, such as shingle, metal, and TPO. Depending on your property, budget, and individual situation, you’ll want to look at all of your available options.
