Roof Replacement
In general, you should replace your roof when it is at or near the expected lifespan of the materials used in its construction. The expected lifespan of a roof can vary from 15–20 years to 50 years or longer. Asphalt shingle roofs last 20 years on average while slate, concrete, metal roofing, synthetic materials can last up to 50+ years.
A roof should be replaced when it becomes damaged, has reached the end of its service life, or when the damage is too severe and widespread to repair. A roofing professional will be able to inspect your roof and determine your options for repair versus replacement.
Roofing work is best done during the fall or spring, when temperatures are relatively mild. Fall is considered the ideal season, as these months tend to be drier than in spring.

Depending on the material, a roof may last from around 15–20 years (budget asphalt shingles) to 50 years or more (slate, concrete tile, metal roofing, synthetic materials).
Roofing Materials
The type of roofing materials you choose for your home can make a big difference in how long your roof lasts and how durable the protection is that it provides. The materials also play an important role in what kind of overall curb appeal a property has and dramatically change the look. Because every home is as different as the local weather conditions of where it’s at, it’s important to work with a local contractor that is well-versed in both the latest materials available and how they perform in a city like Charlotte’s, with it’s unique environment and seasonal elements. After a roof inspection is completed to assess the condition and components, it’s much easier to short list the best options and materials. As Your Local Roof Guides, Weather Roofing is here to help you select the perfect materials for your home that will look great and provide durable, long-lasting protection in North Carolina’s unique weather conditions.
Roofing Services
Depending on the age and health of your current roofing system, repairing it may very well add years to the lifespan of your roof. However, in some cases you can save money in the long run by replacing a deteriorating roof rather than continuously repairing it. An experienced roofing specialist can help you determine which is your best option.
Always hire local, check out online reviews, ask for proof of insurance and references, assess their level of communication from the very beginning and ultimately go with your gut. By doing your homework, and vetting them out, you can rest assured that you’re selecting the right roofing contractor for the job.
