If you notice a hole in your roof, missing shingles, leaks, or animals living in your attic then that’s a sign of a damaged roof. Also, it all depends on how old your current roof is, typically if it’s more than 12-15 years old, it may be time to get a replacement.
Generally speaking, a properly installed and maintained roof can last between 25-35 years. But, the actual lifespan of your roof depends on a number of things, including the type of roofing materials that were used as well as the environment.
