The lifespan of your roof usually depends on material, installation, climate and maintenance. Asphalt shingles are one of today’s most popular residential roofing options. When installed and cared for by a reputable roofing contractor, this material can last at least two decades.

Roof Damage vs. Normal Aging

Aside from normal aging, damage can cause your roof to deteriorate. Continue reading to learn more.

Natural Roof Aging

Shingles have granules for protection against UV rays and other outdoor elements. A loss of these sediments is a typical sign your roof is almost at the end of its life. If your roof has bald spots and there’s a significant amount of granules in your gutters, it might be time to replace it.

Are your shingles warping or curling? These are common indications of aging. Over the years, the components keeping the shingles in place can start deteriorating. You’ll know roof replacement is necessary if most of your shingles are buckled or curled.

Roof Damage

Flashing protects leak-prone areas of your roof, such as vents, chimneys and skylights. When damaged, it must be replaced immediately to avoid water intrusion and leaks. Contact professionals right away if your roof develops damage from hail, snow, high winds or other harsh outdoor elements.

Is your roof sagging? If so, it could be deteriorating or poorly installed. Excessive snow loads and too many layers of shingles can also cause this issue. Time is of the essence when it comes to dealing with roof sagging due to the risk of collapse.

We were very pleased with our service. We got three different estimates and we went with Deschutes Roofing. We also had a personal recommendation from friends. The roof was actually installed very quickly and efficiently.

We had an excellent experience with Carlos and the team at Deschutes Roofing. Dave conducted a thorough inspection of our roofing needs, answered our questions, and provided a detailed appraisal with a range of options.

We got in touch with Carlos on a Saturday desperate for help with our ice dams, as we had water actively running into the house. He got a crew together for us the next day.
