Re-Roofing Coatbridge

Roofline Glasgow provides a re-roofing service to the Coatbridge area.

Re-roofing is an essential part of home maintenance that ensures the safety, comfort, and longevity of your home. It involves replacing the entire roof system of your house, which can be a necessary step due to various reasons.

Firstly, aging is a common reason for re-roofing. Most roofs have a lifespan of 20 to 30 years, depending on the materials used and the quality of installation. Over time, wear and tear from exposure to weather conditions like sun, wind, rain, and snow can cause the roofing materials to deteriorate. This can lead to leaks, mould and mildew growth, and even structural damage to your home.

Secondly, severe weather events can also necessitate re-roofing. High winds, hailstorms, or heavy snowfall can cause significant damage to your roof, leading to immediate leaks or weakening the structure, making it more susceptible to future damage.

So, what are the typical signs that your home might need re-roofing? Here are a few to look out for:

• Age of the Roof: If your roof is near or past its expected lifespan, it might be time for a replacement.
• Missing or Damaged Shingles: Shingles that are cracked, broken, or missing can indicate that your roof is failing.
• Leaks and Water Damage: If you notice water stains on your ceiling or walls, it could mean your roof is leaking.
• Sagging Roof: A sagging roof is a serious sign of structural damage and usually indicates the need for re-roofing.
• Mould, Moss, or Algae Growth: These can cause rot and deterioration of your roofing materials.
