Q) How does a home-owner tell if the shingles on your Edmonton Roof need to be repaired or replaced?

A) Your roof protects your home and the contents inside your home from the effects of weather (rain, wind, hail, etc). 

You should consider your roof as your home’s most important protective covering. The maintenance of your roof shingles should be an important part of your regular maintenance to-do list at home. Depending on the type of shingles on your roof, you should be able to expect shingles to last upwards of 20 years, or even more in some instances. Many shingle manufacturers such as IKO, GAF, Certainteed, Owens Corning, and Malarkey now offer Limited Lifetime Warranty or similar warranty on shingles.

Many factors can negatively impact the life expectancy of the shingles you have on your home. Factors that can lower the life of your shingles are improper installation, insufficient attic ventilation (which causes shingles to over-heat in the summer and ice dams in the winter), adverse weather conditions (hail, rain, wind), tree branches rubbing on shingles, ice dams, etc.

Anyone can perform a basic roof inspection from the ground. Ground view shingle inspections are performed safely from your driveway or backyard with a set of binoculars or a good digital camera that has a high zoom.

When inspecting your shingles, look for signs of cupping or curling of the shingles, excessive granular loss (granules are the tiny beads imbedded on the top of shingles) as evidenced in your gutters or at the bottom of down-spouts, split, cracked or missing shingles or areas with organic growth (i.e. algae, moss, fungus, staining, etc.).

Also, an indoor roof inspection can be performed easily with a ladder and a flashlight from your attic access. Our main website has an attic ventilation inspection guide that you can follow. 


When inspecting from inside your attic, look for signs of damaged, split or sagging wood framing. Also look for dark areas that look wet or significant discoloration on the underside of the roof sheathing - basically any evidence of frost or moisture on the underside of the roof deck is important to note. 


When excessive humidity builds-up in the attic space due to improper attic ventilation, it is not unusual for mould to grow and this will quickly deteriorate the sheathing. This will also have an adverse effect on the indoor-air quality of your home. Also, the moisture can turn in to what can appear to be a roof leak and can also ruin insulation in your attic when your attic insulation becomes soaked. 


You also want to check to be sure attic insulation is not covering your soffits. The soffit area under the eave area of your home is typically the air intake system to your attic. The air travels up the underside of the roof sheathing to the exhaust vents at the peak of your roof and out goes warm air. Be sure the exhaust vents are also working properly. Be sure the vents are not blocked by snow or ice and that you have adequate exhaust venting area. You need about 1 square foot of exhaust venting per 100 - 300 square feet of attic space.

Attic ventilation is extremely important to the health of your entire roofing / attic system and the indoor air quality of your home. Roof shingles will also last longer when there is proper ventilation in your attic.

If you notice any of these deficiencies in your attic space or with your shingles, you should contact us for a more thorough examination of your roofing shingles and attic system. Sometimes the solution may be only a minor roof repair or roof ‘tune-up’ versus replacing the entire roof.
