COMMON ROOFING QUESTIONS ANSWERED IN NEWPORT

Roof lifespan varies significantly by material, with asphalt shingles typically lasting 12-20 years and metal roofs 40-70 years, while regular maintenance and inspections are crucial for maximising longevity.

The cost of a new roof depends on factors like roof size, material chosen, and labour costs, and a "roofing square" is a standard industry measurement for estimating materials and labour.

Signs indicating a need for replacement include age (20-30 years), cupping or clawing shingles, and missing sections, but the decision depends on age and extent of damage.

A typical roof installation can range from 1-2 days to a few days, depending on the roof's size, shape, selected materials, and the crew's size.
