How do I know if my roof needs to be replaced?
There are several signs that may indicate your roof needs to be replaced, such as missing or cracked shingles, curling or buckling shingles, leaks in your attic or ceiling, or visible damage to your roof's surface.

What is the difference between roof replacement and roof repair?
Roof repair involves fixing specific issues with your roof, such as a leak or damaged shingles. Roof replacement, on the other hand, involves removing the existing roof and installing a new one.
