Florida roofs work hard. Between scorching sun, sudden downpours, and hurricane season, its no wonder roofs wear out faster here than in other states. But how do you know when it's time to replace?

Here are 5 signs to look for:
1. Your roof is 15+ years old. Most shingle roofs last upwards of 15-20 years in Florida's climate. If yours is getting close, its time to plan.
2. You see missing or curling shingles. This is more than cosmetic. It means your roof is vulnerable to water intrusion.
3. There are water stains on ceilings or walls. Leaks don't always drip. Yellow spots or peeling paint can be early signs of roof failure.
4. You notice sagging or soft spots. Walk around your home and look up. If any areas appear to droop or sink, call a roofer ASAP.
5. Your neighbors are getting new roofs. Homes built around the same time often need new roofs within a few years of each other.
