How Long Can Your 30-Year Roof Last?

If you are a homeowner you know that there are a variety of colors, shapes, and styles of roofs to choose from. You may have also noticed packages of shingles boasting the longevity of their products.

As a homeowner, can you really count on your roof to last 30 years? The answer depends on a number of factors. Despite the manufacturer’s claims, most 30-year roofs will last between 17 and 23 years.

Weather as a Factor

The life of your roof depends on the toll the weather will take on it. Hot Texas summers and cold winters can shorten the life of your roof. Sunlight will dry out asphalt shingles and lead to granule loss. If you find granules in your roof’s gutters, it is time for a roof inspection.

Heavy rains, wind storms, and winter ice and snow will also shorten the lifespan of your roof. Hugh winds will loosen and eventually tear the shingles. Hard rain and hail directly damage the shingles. Even if your roof undergoes regular maintenance, one bad storm can lead to leaks and other problems.

Roof Components

The life of your roof depends on more than just the shingles. Every roof requires metal components like roofing nails and flashing. Rusted or corroded metal components can cause the shingles to loosen.

Signs That You Need a New Roof

Regular roof inspections can alert you to issues long before water stains appear on the ceiling inside your home. Even if you are on the ground staring up at the roof you can spot potential trouble spots.

Shingles that are curled or buckled at the edges mean it is time to call in a professional. As mentioned before, weather damage can lead to granule loss. You can see granule loss in the form of discoloration.

Other Roofing Types

Unlike asphalt shingles, metal roofs can last between 40 and 70 years. With regular maintenance wood shingle roofs can last up to 30 years. Clay tile roofs can last between 50 and 100 years.

Reviews From Our Customers

Brandon and Eldridge Roofing did a spectacular job! They were thorough and informative. The knowledge and experience that he had, was extensive and he was exquisitely professional! This was my first insurance claim for my house. He walked me through every step and let me know what to expect and/or anticipate. I would recommend to anyone who needs a knowledgeable and patient roofing company!

Jackle Yakul

Spring, Texas

Michael was so thorough in explaining our options. He was nothing but professional. Everything happened as he explained it would. They did a wonderful job on our roof. And as Michael said, you couldn’t even tell they had been at our house and replaced a roof. Their clean up is remarkable. If I could give more than 5 stars I would. I highly recommend Eldridge Roofing for your roofing needs!

Leasha Davis

Spring, Texas

We’re very pleased with our new roof & customer service from Mike Marriott, Ashely & the crew. The roof looks great and our seasoned adjuster even commented on the great quality materials & workmanship. The crew was fast and thoroughly cleaned up after themselves. After receiving quotes from several other roofing companies I am glad that we went with Eldridge and would highly recommend them.

Miranda Harris

Houston, Texas

Eldridge Roofing was recommended to me after I suspected my roof may have been damaged during a recent storm. Brandon Holland came out and thoroughly inspected every inch of my roof. He was able to clearly explain the problem and had a solution not far behind. The entire process from start to finish was exceptional. We will definitely be using Eldridge for any future issues or projects that may come up! Thanks again!

Sarah Grant

We discovered Eldridge Roofing from a neighbor and asked them to give us an estimate. We worked with Shannon who came as scheduled and worked efficiently with our insurance company to get us the best roof for the best price. He followed through with us every step of the way and we are very pleased with the quality, professionalism and complete honesty of Shannon and the rest of Eldridge staff. Highly Recommend!

Dorothy Chapman

I have used Eldridge Roofing at one our rent houses for a roof repair, and also a full internal repair from water damage from a burst pipe. At another rent house they replaced the whole roof and it was an hour and a half drive out of town for them. They also replaced the roof at my residence. Brandon the Project Manager is very professional and thorough. I highly recommend them.
