Consequently it is imperative to check and maintain your roof regularly to make sure it is in tip-top shape. Often homeowners have an out-of-sight-out-of-mind attitude when it comes to their home\u2019s roof, until they see water dripping down from their ceiling and walls during a rainstorm. Don\u2019t let yourself wait until this happens, as it can cost a fortune in water, and mold and mildew damage repair. Carefully inspect your roof a couple of times each year, and if you see roof damage or wear repair it quickly.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>Listed below is a series of common roofing questions along with answers that can help you determine if it\u2019s time for a new roof.<\/p>\n<p><strong>When is the best time(s) of the year to inspect a roof?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Fall and spring are the best times of the year to inspect a roof. Inspecting your roof in the fall is wise so that you can make any roofing repairs prior to the onslaught of winter. Inspecting your roof in the spring is also a smart decision as you can assess if the winter weather has damaged your roof in anyway. Ice dams are notorious for damaging roof shingles near the roof eaves.<\/p>\n<table style=\"width: 100%;\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"text-align: left;\" width=\"50%\"><strong>How long is my asphalt shingle roof expected to last?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>It depends upon the type of shingles installed, how they were installed, your local climate, and if adequate attic insulation and venting are installed. Shingles are sold with lifetime warranties that range from around 15 to 40 years. My personal experience is that you can expect them to last for about 75 to 80% of their lifetime warranty. The life of the shingles is also dependent upon if and how other elements of the roofing materials were installed, such as ice and water shield, drip edge, and flashing. Also, proper roof nailing is critical for ensuring that the shingles don\u2019t get blown off during wind storms.<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center;\" width=\"47%\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-6455\" src=\"http:\/\/homeadditionplus.com\/dev\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/Asphalt_Shingle_Roof_Installation-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"Notice the ice and watershield installed during this Asphalt Roof Shingle Installation.\" width=\"280\" height=\"210\" srcset=\"https:\/\/homeadditionplus.com\/dev\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/Asphalt_Shingle_Roof_Installation-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/homeadditionplus.com\/dev\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/Asphalt_Shingle_Roof_Installation.jpg 640w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 280px) 100vw, 280px\" \/><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>Finally, to ensure maximum shingle life it\u2019s important that there is good ridge vent and soffit venting to allow the heat of the attic to be easily eliminated from the attic during the hot summer months. High attic temperatures during the summer can dramatically shorten the life of asphalt shingles. Similarly, it\u2019s important to have plenty of attic insulation to prevent warm moist air from rising up in the attic in the winter time. Warm moist air in the attic during the winter months can lead to the formation of ice dams which can destroy roofs and cause major water leaks.<\/p>\n<p><strong>What should you do if you see cracking, curling, cupping and fishmouthing on the shingles?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>If you see cracking, curling, cupping or fishmouthing it\u2019s time to re-roof your home. These are all symptoms of a roof that is nearing the end of its life and that could possibly lead to roof leaks at any time.<\/p>\n<table style=\"width: 100%;\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"text-align: left;\" width=\"50%\"><strong>What should you do if you see a missing a shingle or two?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>You can temporarily slide a new shingle up underneath the shingles just above the missing shingle(s). This will at least prevent a roof leak until you can call in a roofing contractor. Alternatively you can replace the individual asphalt shingle yourself, however it takes a little skill and the right tools and materials.<\/p>\n<p><strong>What should I do if my roof has many leaks?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Temporarily cover the entire roof with a large vinyl tarp. Then call in a roofing contractor to inspect the roof to see what should be done. Most likely the entire roof will need to be re-shingled. The roofing contractor should also inspect the roof for any structural damage due to the severity of the roof leaks.<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center;\" width=\"49%\"><a href=\"http:\/\/homeadditionplus.com\/dev\/home_addition_bid_sheets\/asphalt-shingle-roofing-bid-sheet\/\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-6302\" src=\"http:\/\/homeadditionplus.com\/dev\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/Asphalt_Shingle_Roofing_Bid_Sheet_CP-225x300.jpg\" alt=\"Asphalt Shingle Roofing Bid Sheet\" width=\"225\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/homeadditionplus.com\/dev\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/Asphalt_Shingle_Roofing_Bid_Sheet_CP-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/homeadditionplus.com\/dev\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/Asphalt_Shingle_Roofing_Bid_Sheet_CP.jpg 384w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 225px) 100vw, 225px\" \/><\/a><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p><strong>Where Can I Find a Roofing Contractor?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Your best bet is to check with friends and neighbors in your area that have used a roofing contractor recently and who can vouch for them.

These companies have a database of contractors throughout the entire country that they\u2019ve done background checks on and have fully screened. Their service is free for the homeowner.
