Does your roof need replacement?
Your roof is one of the most important parts of your home — protecting your family and belongings from the elements. But with New Jersey’s weather—hot summers, snowy winters, and heavy rainstorms—roofs can wear down faster than you think.
Wondering if it’s time for a roof replacement? Here are 5 common signs homeowners in North Jersey should watch for:
1. Age of Your Roof
Most asphalt shingle roofs last about 20–25 years. If your roof is older than this, it might be time to start thinking about replacement, especially if you notice other warning signs.
2. Missing or Damaged Shingles
Shingles that are curling, cracked, or missing expose your roof to water damage. If you spot granules from shingles in your gutters, that’s another red flag.
3. Leaks or Water Damage Inside Your Home
Water stains on your ceiling or walls are serious indicators of roof issues. Even small leaks can lead to mold growth and structural damage if left untreated.
4. Sagging Roof Deck
A sagging roof is a sign of serious structural damage, often caused by water infiltration or worn-out decking. If you notice any sagging areas, call a professional immediately.
5. Increased Energy Bills
If your heating or cooling costs have spiked, your roof might be failing to insulate your home properly. Gaps or damage can let heat escape in winter or enter in summer.
