When Should I Replace My Roof in Chesapeake?
Being aware of when you should replace the roof on your Chesapeake home can prevent spending more money in the long run by avoiding unexpected roof problems. There are some signs that can indicate when your roof might be due for a replacement. For instance, recurring leaks and other types of damage can signal that it's due for a replacement, especially when the damage is too serious to be fixed with a repair.

Lastly, it might be time to consider your options for a replacement when your roof's lifespan is nearly up – usually around 20 to 30 years depending on the type of roof and the materials used.
