Many homes that are more than ten years old can be in need of an entire roof replacement. Not all new homes are built to equally stringent standards, so some homes will have roofs that require replacement in a shorter time period than others. But there are certain proven warning signs that a roof needs to be replaced. They include excessive leaking from all areas of a roof, multiple visible holes and large cracks in the roof, and a significantly sloping or drooping roof, among other signs. In all of these cases, only a licensed, professional roofing company should be used to replace the roof. This kind of repair job is much too dangerous for the layman homeowner.

How do I fix a leaky roof myself?

Shingles themselves typically do not leak, unless they have holes or tears in them. If you have a hole or tear in a shingle, it can be repaired by applying a 3-course of vertical-grade roof cement, reinforcement fabric, and a top coat of roof cement. If you have multiple erosion holes in your shingle roof, it is time to replace the roof system. http://www.lichy.com
