Your roof is easy to forget about until something goes wrong. But paying attention to warning signs early can save you from costly repairs or unexpected stress. If you’ve been asking yourself, “Do I need a new roof?” here are some simple ways to figure it out.
Take a good look at your roof. Are there shingles that are curling at the edges, cracked, or completely gone? Shingles are designed to protect your home from rain, wind, and sunlight. When they’re damaged or missing, your roof can’t do its job properly. Even a small patch of missing shingles could leave your home vulnerable to leaks.
Have you spotted watermarks on your ceiling or walls? What about damp spots in the attic? These are red flags that your roof isn’t keeping water out as it should. Leaks aren’t just annoying, they can lead to bigger problems like mold growth, wood rot, and even structural damage if ignored for too long.
Does your roof look uneven or like it’s sagging in certain spots? That’s a serious sign something’s wrong. Sagging is often caused by water damage or weak support beams, and it’s not something that can wait. In most cases, sagging means a full roof replacement is the safest option.
If your energy bills have been creeping up and your heating or cooling system is working harder than usual, your roof might be to blame. An old or poorly insulated roof can let warm air escape in the winter and let heat in during the summer. Replacing your roof with modern, energy-efficient materials can help regulate indoor temperatures and save money on utilities.
Even the best roofs have a lifespan. If your roof is 20–30 years old or more, it’s probably nearing the end of its useful life. While it might still look fine from the outside, years of exposure to sun, rain, and storms could have weakened its structure. A professional inspection can confirm whether it’s time for a replacement.
Restoring a historic roof isn’t just about making it look good, it’s about protecting your property while honoring its history. At Citadel Contracting, we pride ourselves on striking that balance. And if you need related services like roof repair, roof replacement, or new roof installation, we can help with those too.
