The first thing you need to be able to know is the age of the roof.If the home has been owned by you since it was built that makes the answer to that question easy.If you didn’t buy it new but bought it used that makes it tougher to know how old it is. But you can find out how old it is. Generally I tell all my clients of my roofing San Diego company if there roof is over 20 years old it needs to be replaced.This rule isn’t hard and fast set but it is a rule that is good to go by.
Next thing you have to find out is whether or not you have leaks.As your roof gets up there in years you will start to experience more leaks.
