When is it time to stop repairs and install a new roof?

When it comes to roof repairs, it is important to assess the condition of your roof before determining when it is time to stop repairs and install a new roof. If the damage has been extensive, resulting in leaks or water damage that cannot be easily repaired, then it may be best to replace the entire roofing system. In addition, if regular maintenance and repairs have not kept up with normal wear-and-tear from weathering and age, then a complete replacement may be necessary. Roofs are typically built to last 20-30 years although this can vary depending on location, climate and material choices. Ultimately, if you have had multiple repairs in recent years or if your current roof has reached its expected life cycle, it may be time to consider replacing your roof instead of continuing with further repairs.
