How long can your roof really weather all the ailments that Mother Nature brings? It’s summertime so that means extreme temperatures, and heavy rain showers that dump lots of water on homes and businesses. So, how can you tell if your roof is truly holding up to these challenges? There are many signs that say it’s time to get a new roof. Check these tips out and then check your roof to see where you stand.

• Check for cracked shingles
• Check to see if shingles are cupped, or if the edges are curled
• Check for bald spots where granules are missing

You would also need to replace your roof if it is more than 20 years old, or if you notice that it just looks old and worn. If you have moss growing in some of the shingles, it might also mean that it’s time for a new roof. Though new roofs can be costly, it will save you from heartache if your home suffers water damage from a leak.
