Your roof is a sturdy thing, but it will need to be replaced at some point. That time frame depends on the material. For example, according to Today's Homeowner, you should replace a roof that has asphalt shingle roofing roughly every 15 to 20 years. But your roof will also need repair work at times during its lifespan. Here are three signs you should call roofers to do just that. Let's take a look for more information!

1. There Is Sagging

If you see that your roof is sagging when you look at your house, that's a sign that you need to immediately contact roofers. Something's going on with the overall support structure, and they need to come to see what is causing it to sag. Then they can repair it!

2. There Are Leaks

If your roof has cracks in it, then water can get into your attic, which can cause things like mold and water damage. Have roofing professionals come to take a look at what the problem areas are and then fix them.

3. There Are Damaged Shingles

If there are obvious signs of damage to your shingles, such as some of them are missing, broken, curled, or dented, you can have them repaired. But if the damage is very extensive, then you'd be better off having them replaced.

The best thing that you can do is pay attention to the state of your roof. Do a visual inspection every so often. Check the attic and have your roof inspected once a year. By doing that, you can make sure that your roof stays in fairly good shape up until when you need to replace it. This will allow you to enjoy living under it for a long time.

There are other signs, like your gutters being blocked, higher energy bills, and the sight of mold. If you see any of these things, then you can contact a local roofing professional so that they can come repair it and get your roof back in good shape.
