commercial roof replacement

Not only is installing a proper quality roof essential to the safety and functionality of your home but replacing your roof when it is in poor shape is another thing you’ll need to consider as a homeowner. Frequent storms, old age, and everyday wear and tear can all contribute to a worn-out roof. Prominent Construction is the Minneapolis roofing contractor here to help get it back into tip-top shape.

How to Know When It’s Time for a Roof Replacement

Sometimes commercial metal roofing repairs can do the trick to get your home’s roof as good as new, but there comes a time when even the best repairs simply won’t cut it anymore. That’s usually the time when you should consider a roof replacement. The factors below will help you determine whether your home is due for a commercial roof replacement.

Water Leaks

One of the more telling signs that a roof needs to be replaced is when water damage is apparent. Brown stains on your ceiling are clear proof that your roof isn’t doing its primary job of protecting your home from the elements. A single, small leak is fixable with a quick repair job, but if your roof is letting in water in multiple areas, it is vital that you take care of it by having a full roof replacement.

Missing or Damaged Shingles

Missing shingles or damaged areas are other indications that you are in need of a roof replacement. As we know from being Minneapolis homeowners ourselves, our ever-changing weather can gravely affect the state of your home’s roofing. Not only can inclement weather damage the slates and shingles, but it can also leave you with parts of your roof completely missing. Whenever you notice missing or damaged asphalt shingle roofs, it’s time to call a roofing professional to assess the damage.

Roof is Aged

Different types of roofing have different lifespans. For example, tile roofing can last up to 50 years, while asphalt shingle roofing only lasts around 20 years. Factor in a few damaging storms, and you may need a roof replacement even sooner. When you’re aware that the warranty of your roof is starting to run out, it’s smart to start thinking about hiring a professional roof replacement company to take care of it.

The Difference Between Replacing and Repairing Your Roof

At Prominent Construction, we perform both residential roof replacements and roof repairs. Roof repairs are performed for small problems like a single leak or a handful of missing shingles. The tasks are simple but necessary. Roof replacements are different, in that we remove your existing metal roofs and replace it with a new one, to ensure that it’s safe and operating optimally.

This is where regular inspections become essential. Prominent Construction’s expert team members are available to complete a comprehensive roof inspection to help you decide whether you need a quick roof repair or a full roof replacement.
