Roof Replacement vs. Roof Repair

How to tell whether a repair will hold or a replacement is the wiser spend.

A single leak, a few missing shingles, or damaged flashing usually calls for repair — especially on a younger roof.

Widespread curling, granule loss, sagging, or repeated leaks across seasons usually point to replacement.

Ask any roofer to explain both options in writing, with the expected lifespan of a repair versus a new roof.
