Do I Need a Roof Repair or a Full Replacement?
When it comes to roofing issues, understanding when to repair and when to replace is important and may save you money in the long run!
Roof Repairs:
- Ideal for minor problems like small areas of damaged shingles or small leaks.
- Cost-effective due to time and material needed and less disruptive.
- Regular inspections can catch issues early for timely repairs.
Full Roof Replacement:
- Needed for widespread damage, extensive wear, or an aging roof.
- If your home is older, consider a full replacement; old shingles are often brittle.
- Starting with repairs may lead to a full replacement later for older roofs, costing more and causing delays.
- Modern roofing materials and techniques offer improved energy efficiency and durability.

Tell-Tale Signs, Your Metal Roof May Need a Repair:
- Loose or Missing Fasteners: Fasteners that have come loose or fallen out can compromise the roof's integrity, leading to leaks and other issues.
- Deteriorating Rubber Washers: Cracked, brittle or worn washers on metal roofs may not provide an effective seal, increasing the risk of leaks.
- Roof Leaks: Water leaking into your home and causing water stains or excess moisture
- Visible Rust: Rust on exposed fasteners or metal components of a roof indicates protective coating deterioration and vulnerability to further corrosion.
