Shrewsbury Roofing Services Offered
Shrewsbury roofers offer a variety of services, from the standard roof replacement and repair to other services like roof cleaning and solar panel installation. Here's a breakdown of some common services offered:

Cleaning your roof can increase your home's curb appeal and save you in the long run on repairs.
- Roof repair and replacement: Roof repair and replacement are essential services no matter where you live, but there are a few reasons why they're especially important in Shrewsbury. Shrewsbury can occasionally experience storm damage. These issues need to be repaired promptly to avoid more property damage.

When Should I Replace My Roof in Shrewsbury?
Being aware of when you should replace the roof on your Shrewsbury home can help you save money in the long run by avoiding potential roof issues. There are some signs that can indicate when your roof might be due for a replacement. A sign that you might need to replace your roof is recurring leaks or extensive damage that's too severe to be repaired.
A roof not only shields your home from the weather, but also makes a good base for solar panels. Shrewsbury homeowners who plan on getting solar panels soon may want to consider replacing their roof first. Otherwise, you might need to remove the panels later to replace your roof.
Lastly, it might be time to consider your options for a replacement when your roof is starting to show its age – typically about 20 to 30 years depending on the type of roof and the materials used. The table below demonstrates the typical life expectancy of each roofing material.
