Q. When Should I Replace My Roof?
A. While many high-quality asphalt shingle roofs can last for 10 to 30 years, there are several factors that can decrease the lifespan of your roof and require a professional roof replacement to prevent safety hazards for your property. Some of the most common causes of premature roof failure are improper roof installation, storm damage and inadequate attic ventilation.
