Choosing the Right Roofing Material for your Colorado Home [Podcast]
Key Takeaways:
- Older Colorado homes that are seeing roof replacements are using 3-tab shingles, which are no longer up to most building codes due to low wind ratings.
- The average Colorado roof lifespan is actually 15 to 20 years.
- When you begin to see shingle granules in the gutter, it may be time to replace your roof, but you should still call a professional for an inspection before proceeding.
- Roof repairs may not be the best option as they can waive existing manufacturers warranties.
- Neighborhoods tend to be on a similar replacement cycle either due to weather damage in the area or age of the home. If you see neighbors getting a new roof, it may be time to get a new roof yourself.
