New Roof vs. Roof Repair: What’s Best for Your Home?
Deciding between repairing a damaged roof or replacing it entirely is a big decision. Here’s how to figure out what’s best.
When roof repairs make sense
- Damage is minor & localised (like a few slipped tiles).
- Your roof is generally in good shape & under 15 years old.
- There are no underlying structural issues.
Repairs can extend the life of your roof for many years at a fraction of the cost
Signs you may need a new roof
- Your roof is 20+ years old & repairs are becoming frequent.
- You notice sagging, multiple leaks or widespread tile damage.
- Energy bills are creeping up (poor insulation from an old roof).
