There's no doubt about it: a leaking roof is always a problem. It's a sure sign that your roof is damaged and in need of repairs. Over time, a non-leak-proof roof will lead to water damaged walls and ceilings, mold, mildew, and even serious structural damage to your home. For those reasons, it's beneficial to have roof leaks professionally repaired right away. Minor leaks are a quick, simple repair job, in addition to being a small investment to prevent costlier repairs in the future. While water leaks can usually be taken care of with roofing repairs, serious leaks or leaks in multiple areas probably need a full roof replacement.
Should You Repair or Replace Your Roof
If your shingles are missing or seriously damaged, water can seep in and damage your roof and attic in addition to creating the perfect breeding ground for mold. In the case of missing shingles, you're most likely to notice them following high winds or an intense storm. You may even see exposed pond liner or skrim. Call our roofing repair experts right away! A specialist from our Illinois roofing contractor will come out ASAP to inspect the roof for damage and make long-lasting repairs.
As much as we would love for roofs to last forever, that is sadly not the case. Your roof's lifespan depends on a couple of key factors, including roofing material, proper ventilation, and whether or not the roof was built over an existing roof. The majority of homes have standard asphalt roofs, which last about 20 years. However, if your roof was built over an older roof, the lifespan will be closer to 10 years. If your roof is getting up there in age, you should start considering a roof replacement. Until your roof is replaced, you may have to handle an uptick in roofing repairs as the roof ages and becomes less effective at its job.
Our roofing clients often ask us how to tell when a roof should be repaired versus replaced. Here at TOMKAT Roofing, Inc., we provide both roofing repair and roof replacement services for your home or business. For roofing repair jobs, we patch up minor damage like leaks and missing shingles to restore the health of your existing roof. Roof replacement, on the other hand, is a much more involved project where we remove your old roof in its entirety and install a brand new roof in its place.
The right service for your roof depends on factors like its age and condition. That's why it's so important to conduct a roofing inspection before we get to work. Our roofers will set up a time to come to your home and perform a thorough roof inspection. They'll pay attention to important details like the age of the roof, the condition of the roof, and any visible damage to the roof. Typically, new roofs only need minor repairs while older roofs are better candidates for a full replacement. Once we understand what we're dealing with, we'll let you know if roof repair or roof replacement is your best option. We also offer a free estimate for all of our roofing services.
