What is the life expectancy of my new roof?
This question requires two answers depending upon what type of roof work you are having performed. Relay: Typically a relay, which involves adding a second layer over an existing layer, you can expect a life expectancy of 10 to 20 years. Tear-off: A tear-off is the removal of the existing layer (or layers). Typically the life expectancy is 15 to 30 years. NOTE: To obtain full and maximum life expectancy of your roof regular maintenance and/or inspection of the roof should be conducted twice a year.
