You\u2019re afraid to act to fix the roof or get a new roof, but you don&#8217;t want to put off the job any longer. Rather than make an emotional decision that could cost you, educate yourself.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Here are clear danger signs that you need a new roof &#8212; or at least massive repairs &#8212; ASAP.<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Paint is peeling and blistering inside or outside your home;<\/li>\n<li>Large stains or fungal\/mildew growths are creeping up your walls or ceilings;<\/li>\n<li>You spy leaks, missing shingles, degradation, and other obvious warning signs.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Unfortunately, identifying roof problems is not necessarily a linear proposition!<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>In other words, your roof might be severely damaged, but you may only notice one or two leaky spots or places where the paint is peeling. Conversely, the internal damage may look &#8220;pretty bad,&#8221; but the roof itself may be relatively intact.<\/p>\n<p>So should you:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li dir=\"ltr\">Do nothing?<\/li>\n<li dir=\"ltr\">Do-it-yourself?<\/li>\n<li dir=\"ltr\">Hire a roof repair company?<\/li>\n<li dir=\"ltr\">Get the roof replaced entirely?<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>In general, err on the side of being \u201ctoo cautious.\u201d If you hire a <a title=\"Bay Area Roof &amp; Solar Contractor\" href=\"http:\/\/www.centuryrooftile.com\/index.html\">great roofing company<\/a>, and you had no problem &#8212; or just a minor problem &#8212; you might overspend by a few hundred dollars. On the flip side, if you fail to react effectively, and the roof collapses or leads to mold infestation, the cost of that under-reaction could be in the hundreds of thousands of dollars, when you extrapolate over the long term &#8212; not to mention the indirect costs and inconvenience.<\/p>\n<p>Make the smart choice.
