At Florida Roof King we get a lot of Roofing Questions from our customers and here in this blog, We are going to share some of these questions with you and give you relevant answers.
1 HOW DO I KNOW IF MY ROOF NEEDS TO BE REPAIRED OR REPLACED?
The homeowner usually doesn’t know until the roof problems are discovered after a leaking occurs, or some other serious damages happen. But roof inspections can uncover cracked, warped, or missing shingles; loose seams and deteriorated flashings; excessive surface granules accumulating in the gutters or downspouts; and other visible signs of roof problems. Inside the house look for cracked paint, or peeled wallpaper as signs of Roof Damage.
2 MY ROOF IS LEAKING; DO I HAVE TO HAVE IT REPLACED COMPLETELY?
Leaks can be caused as a result of flashings that have come loose or a section of the roof being damaged. You can have a complete roof failure which is irreversible and a result of improper installation or the materials that were used on the roof, or it could be caused by inappropriate roof installation for the house.

4 HOW LONG CAN I EXPECT MY ROOF TO LAST?
It depends on several things, local, climatic, and environmental conditions, proper building, and roof system design. Also, material quality and suitability proper application, and adequate roof maintenance can help your roof to last longer.
You can also get a warranty on your roof from a roofing contractor or product manufacturer. Take a close look at those warranties to see what responsibilities and financial obligations manufacturers will assume if their product fails to reach their expected lives.
