When Should I Replace My Anchorage Roofing System?

Residential Roof Replacement

If your roof is past its prime or suffers damage from a storm, you face the decision on whether to replace it or make repairs that might extend the roof’s useful life. Don’t make this determination yourself! Have your roof inspected by the professional Anchorage roofers at Integrity Roofing & Windows for a complete and detailed roof inspection and assessment. We’ll give you our honest opinion on the repair vs. replacement issue.

When inspecting your roof, we’ll look for signs of obvious damage as well as hidden signs that your roof may be damaged or aged beyond repair. Here are a list of problems that may indicate your Anchorage roof or Eagle River roofing system needs to be replaced:

  1. Leaks or spotting on interior ceilings or walls
  2. Streaks along outside walls
  3. Shingles that are cracked, split or curling at the edges
  4. Missing shingles
  5. Granule loss on asphalt shingles (the granules collect in your gutters!)
  6. Split or splintered wood shingles
  7. Metal roofing panels that are rusted through
  8. Excessive mold or moss growth
  9. Staining of rafters or in the attic
  10. Penetration of the shingle layer or roof deck
  11. Ice dams forming in gutters

The Roof Replacement Process

If the decision is made to replace your roof, Integrity Roofing & Windows will determine whether we can “re-roof” over the existing roof or if the old roof needs t be torn off and disposed of in an environmentally safe manner. This often depends on the whether or not the underlying structure of your home can support the weight of another roofing layer, and on the condition of the old roof.

We’ll work with you to choose the roofing system that is the right match for your home’s décor, the expected roof load (snow, ice, rain, etc.), and your budget. Most of our roof replacement projects can be completed in just one or two days.
