It can be hard for the average homeowner to know when to replace roof shingles. Replacing the shingles is really up to the individual homeowner. If you want to have a new look, you may want to replace them. If you run into problems then they may have to be replaced. However, there are some warnings that you can look for. If you want to prevent water and moisture from getting into your home you have to replace your shingles. This will also protect the investment in your home. You will know it is time to replace the shingles if you find water in your attic.

If you have experienced a tornado, hurricane, strong winds you will want to replace your roof. A replaced roof can last at least twenty years. After about ten years you may see some repairs that need done like missing and torn shingles and some water leakage. Another reason to replace the roof is if the materials are not up to code. This usually happens after hard rain and snow falls. If the roof has 25% to 30% damage you will want to replace your roof. If you find water it means that the metal flashing is worn away or the roof decking is missing. If you see leaks after ice buildup that means that the underlayment is gone or you're missing a leak barrier.

If you have three layers of shingles on the roof, you will have to remove them. If you see damaged, curled or missing shingles here are some tips:

Curled Shingles: You will want to do this fix in the warmer weather. This way the shingles are softer and easier to work with. Remove the curled shingle and flatten it. In the colder months the shingles are brittle. You can use a propane torch or blow-dryer on the shingles that are curling. Flatten the edges and reattach the shingle with roof cement. Put a blob at each corner and press in place to dry.

If you have shingles that are rotted, cracked or missing they should be replaced. If you lift a shingle off the roof easily it is probably rotten. You could have moss growing on asphalt shingles.
