Every homeowner knows that a sound roof is an absolute must to protect your investment. Exactly the reason for routine roof maintenance—from cleaning out gutters to checking for missing shingles and looking for leaks in the attic—is so important!
In general, roofs last between 15-20 years depending on the original materials used. So, if yours is approaching that age, it is a great idea to have a professional roofer conduct an FREE evaluation yearly!
