If your roof sustained some form of damage, homeowners often wonder if they should get a roof replacement or replacement project done. In fact, there are even times when homeowners find it difficult to choose between the two or they choose one project when they should have done the other. Thankfully, there are a few tell-tale signs when you should have your roof replaced instead of repaired.

In this post, Austin Pro Siding, Windows, & Roofing discusses when you should replace your roof instead of having it repaired.

Sagging

If your roof shows signs of sagging, experts recommend that you have your roof replaced as soon as possible. This is because the sagging is a sign that your roof is rotting due to extreme moisture damage and should be replaced immediately before it causes further issues for your home.

Age

Wondering if you should replace your roof? If you’re finding it difficult to come to a decision, consider checking the age of your roof. If you know that your roof has a few decades behind it, it’s best that you call your asphalt roofing contractors to have it replaced as it’s likely nearing the end of its lifespan. Apart from that, a roof that’s more than two decades old will require frequent repairs, which can cost you a significant amount in the long run.

Extensive Damage

On the other hand, if your 40% or more of your roofing system sustained significant damage during a storm, it’s best that you have your roof replaced immediately as the one time investment can save you a significant amount compared to the frequent repairs you’ll have to make on your roof.
