When Should I Replace My Roof in Cheltenham?
Replacing your roof in Cheltenham is a significant task. There are a few clear signs that can tell you when it's time to replace your roof. Multiple leaks coming through the roof or other considerable damage that can't be repaired is an indication that your roof needs to be replaced.
Another sign that you may need to have your roof replaced is prior to installing solar panels, especially if your roof is on the older end. Replacing your roof first means you can avoid removing the panels later to replace your roof, which will put on additional costs to your project.
Lastly, it may be time to consider your options for a replacement when your roof has reached the end of its lifespan – usually about 20 to 30 years depending on the roofing material. For more information on the lifespans of roofing materials, read the table below.
