Your roof, no matter what kind of material it’s made of, is built and engineered to last. However, even the highest quality roof is not completely indestructible. When roofing problems occur, most of the time they can be easily remedied by simple repairs done by a skilled and experienced residential roofing contractor. But, other times, roof damage or degradation can get so bad that a full-on replacement becomes necessary. In today’s post, we share three scenarios where a replacement, rather than a repair, is necessary. 

One of your roof’s primary functions is to shed and divert excess rainwater to prevent damage to the rest of your home and the flashing on your roof plays a major role in this. According to residential roofing contractors, almost 90% of leaks are caused by flashing failure. In today’s post, we explain why damage to your flashing occurs in the first place and what happens if you do not address it immediately.
