Signs Your Roof May Need Replaced
You may find yourself asking, "Do I need a new roof?" Knowing what to look for is the first step in determining whether it's time for a replacement.
Curling Shingles
Seeing curling shingles can mean a sign of bigger issues, like leaking, which can mean a roof replacement. Shingles can curl because they weren’t lined up properly, or they’re old. If you see curls, it’s best to have it get checked out sooner than later.

Hail Damage
When a large hailstone hits an asphalt shingle, it can tear or even puncture the shingle. When a shingle loses its protective layer of granules, UV rays from the sun begin to destroy it.if you suspect hail damage, get an inspection immediately.

Exposed Nails
Exposed nails can rust and lead to a leaky roof. Depending upon how many nails are exposed and how long they’ve been exposed it may call for a roof replacement.

Interior Water Damage/Leaks
as roofing materials weaken, water can seep in through the shingles and into the rest of the house. This leads to water intrusion, and often, visible puddles during rainstorms. Sometimes small leaks can be patched or repaired by a roofing contractor, but in many cases, small leaks go undetected until they are much larger and require a bigger fix.
