- Ready for a Roof That Lasts?
When repairs are no longer cost-effective, a full roof replacement is the most reliable way to protect your family and your assets. In Southwest Florida, the average lifespan of a shingle roof is 15–20 years, while tile and metal can last 30–50 years. If your roof is approaching these milestones, it’s time for a professional evaluation.
When Should You Replace Your Roof?
At Dried-In Roofing, we recommend replacement over repair if:
- The roof covers more than 25% of the total area in cumulative damage.
- The underlayment (the secondary water barrier) has reached the end of its manufacturer-rated life.
- Your insurance provider has issued a notice that your policy will not be renewed due to the age of the roof.
Know the Facts: Energy Efficiency & ROI
A new roof installation can improve a home’s energy efficiency by up to 15-20% by utilizing modern “cool roof” technologies and improved ventilation. Furthermore, a new roof typically yields an ROI of over 60% upon the sale of the home.
